Business Data Analyst/ETL Technical Lead
Developed and implemented a repeatable and sustainable Key Performance Indicator scorecard in a Dashboard for Plant Operations that measures performances against the Operations Excellence commitments in spend, safety, environmental, and GCTWF. The Plant Ops KPI Dashboard Implementation project was initiated by Reliant to enable the dissemination of performance reporting data via a central dashboard to key decision makers located across the organization. Before this dashboard, Plant reports are created in Excel or Word and distributed through email or shared network folders. This causes delays in the sharing of information, and lacks the controls and security required for financial and key performance information. A centralized dashboard for Plant Ops KPI’s will enable financial and operational information to be available in a more efficient manner. It will also move Reliant closer to “one version of the truth” in metric information.

Business Analyst / Project ManaCofidential,r
Cofidential, is a single leasing system that all the Cofidential, Commercial Finance businesses can use which will drive the standardization of processes and data. This will replace the various leasing systems that currently exist across Cofidential, Commercial Finance.

, the Bob is refreshed with data from Dec Alpha system on a monthly basis, the feed from the Dec-alpha system is ftp’ed in the form of flat files and loaded to Bob Universe tables. The Database was built over time in order to meet the successive user needs and consist of the historical data as present in the Dec-alpha system.
On rollout of GLM, The Dec Alpha will no lonCofidential,r feed the BOB Universe with the data it currently receives. So the business will not have the reporting capabilities that it does currently. GLM will be used for reporting purposes.
