Services

I am primarily an MES, and more specifically a Plant Applications, implementation specialist. This includes solution design, configuration, customization, and deployment to meet the needs in any of the Plant Applications modules; Quality Management, Efficiency Management, Batch Management, Production Management, Tracking, and Schedule Execution. I have been called an expert in Plant Applications by many of my colleagues and customers. I also have experience with GE's Historian and Workflow products, mostly in their interactions with Plant Applications.

In addition to the hands on work, I have done a lot of project management work over my career. My greatest skill in this area is the ability to drive issues to resolution. Unlike some project managers, my technical knowledge in software development allows me to understand issues enough to gauge their impact and risk to schedule and cost.

Lastly, I have a great deal of experience in building interfaces between the control system, MES, and ERP. My extensive knowledge of systems, including systems outside of MES, gives me great insight into how to interface various systems.

As a reference, here is a list of technologies that I am very proficient in:

- GE Proficy Plant Applications

- GE Proficy Historian

- GE Proficy Workflow

- SQL Server

- SQL Server Reporting Services

- VB.Net

- HTML, PHP

- Crystal reports

- Excel, VBA

- semTracker (a very little known, highly specialized, MES solution)
