Please respond to gau...@itecsus.com *Position :* Metadata
*Location :* State of MN , MN *Duration :* 6 Months *Engagement Description: *Design & implement a metadata repository & a business data catalog (aka data directory) to identify, locate, track, & manage MnDOT s data assets. *Note:* MnDOT has named this project Business Data Catalog, but it is not referencing the Microsoft SharePoint product of the same name. This project will result in a controlled, standards-based metadata repository & a data catalog accessed via a simple Web application user interface to enable manual search, create, read, update, delete (SCRUD) of metadata. A separate resource (Java programmer) will build the Web application user interface. The work must be done at the MnDOT Central Office location in the Capitol Complex in St. Paul. Use of Oracle databases is required for this implementation. MnDOT has identified the standard metadata elements that need to be included in the repository & catalog, & is prioritizing the data subject areas for inclusion in this implementation. This is being done in coordination with a concurrent Oracle Business Intelligence project & an Enterprise Data Warehouse effort so that business topics are implemented in the same order. The first priority is Human Resources data. Vendor tasks include: Identify the location of data tables & any existing standard metadata for specified data subject areas in the Human Resources data domain. This implementation will include at least four data subject areas & will create the architecture, standards, & processes for eventual population of up to 100 data subject areas in nine data domains. Design & implement a metadata repository. Design & implement a change process for updates to the repository. Populate the metadata repository fr0m at least four data subject areas in the Human Resources data domain. Develop, test & put into production a functioning business data catalog which includes at least four data subject areas. Design a web application user interface. A separate resource will build the user interface. Recommend best practices for data readiness, data inclusion, data quality, data integrity, & trusted source. Provide knowledge transfer to MnDOT staff. A small number of MnDOT s total data subject areas have been prioritized for implementation during this project. The project will create the structure & processes to enable MnDOT to add to the catalog over time. Knowledge transfer should include a recommendation for a potential automated metadata harvesting solution for implementation of future data subject areas, including recommendation of COTS tools that may be appropriate. An automated solution will not be used, however, for the current implementation under this project. Provide MnDOT specific support documentation materials on data population, maintenance, & use. * * *Requirements within the MnDOT environment:* Contractor will adhere to the following: Compliance with the Statewide Enterprise Architecture Compliance with Statewide Project Management Methodology Compliance with applicable industry/agency standards Compliance with OI&TS (Office of Information & Technology Services) standards Transition & offload of the implemented environment & results to MnDOT staff *Additional Skill Requirements: * *Skill or Experience* *# of Years* Metadata repositories design/implem 4 Oracle 10g Oracle 11g RDBMS servers 3 Data category/taxonomy & metadata 4 Data management. 2 large organizations Thanks & Regards, *Gaurav Seth* ITECS *IT & EBusiness Consulting Services Inc.* Ph: 516.499 6042 | Fax: 347 602 9084/866 515 6599 gau...@itecsus.com | www.itecsus.com -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "SAP BASIS" group.
