This client would have refused to sign the contract with GXS Managed Services unless given the guarantee or having the contract amended stating that project will be assigned to Mr. Maloney adding a 400,000 line item for 8 months of the dedicated efforts of Mr. Maloney focused solely on the project. This was an ERP implementation from SAP to XML. Traveled extensively to all their global offices and created a coherent linkage between their extreme locations and current state business processes. The net result was the orchestration of a standardized EDI poll process across US, Europe and APAC.

Handled the project at the early stage of career. Served as the lead and sole analyst on this Gentran SAP ERP implementation to AI Integrator project directing efforts of seven mappers. Completed the project in 3.5 months ahead of schedule due to the in depth front end design effort. GXS realized a 26 profit margin on this project. Client satisfaction was extremely high.

This project was large and complex. The client was using Gentran on a mainframe legacy back end system that contained packed decimals but needed to physically be able to read that data. Note: when packed decimals exist, files must be shared and translated in binary format. Therefore we designed a secondary map output format that converted the binary file into an ASCII human readable format where we expanded the packed decimals to be displayed them as signed integers padded with leading zeros

Spearheaded this proof of concept project with a goal of merging all phone bill data into a single report that was able to be analyzed and broken down into multiple sub categories. The complexity of an EDI 811 is extreme. The logic needed to break down all levels of taxes associated with each TYPE of phone bill received. On a phone bill, I discovered there were 11 levels of possible taxation. The final spec was 493 pages long. The bottom line was by resolving the client's problem we picked up great additional business from Goldman.
