*Please send resume to **s...@cncconsulting.com <s...@cncconsulting.com>* Job Title: Systems/Business Analyst w/* State exp..* Location: Albany, NY Duration: 12 Months Direct Client Position Client: State of NY OSC maintains numerous Java-based Online Services systems, which include the Public Authorities Reporting Information System (“PARIS” or the “System”). PARIS allows public authorities to enter information and submit their reports to both the Authorities Budget Office and OSC, as required by law. This System was originally implemented on WebSphere Portal, but has been undergoing a conversion to a simpler and more supportable system running on WebSphere Application Server. The goal is to generally replicate the business function of the original System, but modernize the software platform, user interface and underlying Java frameworks. The original design implements business rules and processes both in the Java application and in Oracle database packages and stored procedures. The consultants who initially built and documented the system have not been engaged for a number of years. Some of the biggest challenges are that the original use case documentation was not kept up-to-date, and most of the resources involved in the original design are no longer at OSC. This left a knowledge gap in some areas, but OSC staff is actively working on a detailed analysis to better understand and document the existing system. Scope of Services This will be a staff augmentation engagement to obtain the necessary knowledge and expertise required for the ongoing conversion of PARIS. The consultant will provide assistance as described below: •Under general supervision, perform analysis of business needs, which will contribute to the development or revision of processes; •Ensure business requirements are met, optimal system design is achieved, and any misalignment between business requirements and system capabilities are identified and resolved; •Elicit requirements, define business requirements, and perform analysis on the current and future application to identify gaps in desired system capabilities; •Identify and analyze business rules from their source, and document how they drive the business process, data, and application access/order; •Serve as a liaison between business users and system developers, to ensure proper alignment in functionality between the current and desired application; •Analyze business documentation to properly understand the capabilities that the system needs to support; •Using the existing RTM format, document application functionality which will be used to develop test plans; •Develop necessary test scenarios that fully align with the system capabilities and will align with the format pre-established for the project, by the project team; •Conduct functional specifications review sessions with cross functional teams; •Deliver incremental updates to documentation as consensus is reached on each set of functions; •Develop additional documentation and training materials, as determined by the project team; and •Assist in incremental testing, as needed. *To be effective, the consultant must have a mix of experience as both a programmer analyst and a business analyst, as they will work with both developers and business analysts to identify and document the requirements.* Minimum Qualifications Proposed consultants must meet the following minimum qualifications: •seven years experience in Business and/or Systems Analysis; *•three years experience in Software Development Lifecycle or application development;* •three years experience in various project methodologies and types including waterfall, Agile, iterative; *•three years experience developing and executing test plans and managing defects;* •one year experience in technical writing or creating/updating/documenting written specifications; and •Demonstrated experience in system redesign projects where “as-is” requirements are identified through a reverse engineering process, and then traced back to the business need. *Please send resume to s...@cncconsulting.com <s...@cncconsulting.com> * *Thanks, Sam CNC Consulting, Inc. 201-546-3096 s...@cncconsulting.com <s...@cncconsulting.com>* -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "oraapps" group.
