 | Created
a value proposition, planned, justified and oversaw the construction
of a 27,000 square foot, hardened data center.
This facility now serves as the application hub (ASP) for
MerchantWired. |
| Continuous
consultation on technical design of the physical extranet and IP
addressing scheme. |
| Designed
business policies and procedures in an ISO format. |
| As
Vice President I acted over infrastructure deployment of the extranet
with a budget of $35 million. This
includes the creation and expansion of staff and consultants needed to
accomplish this task. |
| Interviewed
and hired staff for all aspects of the business. |
| I
conceptualized and designed the digital nervous system for the
company. This was
included in MerchantWired’s Intranet. |
| As
Vice President of the ASP I defined or realized applications needed by
the retail industry. Included
with ASP responsibilities are defining and finalizing relationships
with partners such as Compaq and Microsoft. |
| The
first application in MerchantWired’s ASP was financial transaction
authorization. In the
development of this application offering, I redefined
MerchantWired’s network solution to the retail community by turning
the standard offering from a cost center to a profit center. |
