If you
think my services could be of benefit to your organization, you can reach me
by email
I would enjoy
spending a few minutes (or even some hours) with you, at no charge, to
explore the possibilities. No commitments would be made unless we agree that
we could cooperate to our mutual benefit.
Projects of any
reasonable duration, from a couple of hours to a number of months, can be
undertaken.
You can improve the
success rate of new systems development projects by using my services on a
contracting basis. I can fit into whatever role would be useful to you. For
instance I can contribute data or object architecture skills to the project
(quality assuring the models, advising on their fit to the business, their
flexibility, etc).
If you need help to
quickly specify requirements for a new system, I can lead your business
analysts in compiling the necessary use cases, or work directly with your end
users to achieve this.
If you are moving to
object orientation, I can assist you in object-oriented analysis and design
and in the process, use all the relevant patterns that represent best
practice.
