-
01
Enterprise Portal Modernization
- Situation
- An organization needed to replace an aging collaboration platform without losing the content, identity, search, and operating requirements that made the existing system business-critical.
- What Jim did
- I helped define the enterprise architecture, plan the content migration, account for identity integration and search, and guide Drupal platform delivery around long-term maintainability.
- Result
- The work created a more supportable platform direction and reduced the risk of treating modernization as a simple lift-and-shift.
-
02
Secure Document Delivery Platform
- Situation
- Sensitive documents and large software assets needed to reach the right people without relying on manual handling or loose access controls.
- What Jim did
- I designed the access model around authentication, entitlement rules, expiring links, audit logging, and cloud storage integration.
- Result
- The platform improved control and traceability while keeping the customer experience understandable.
-
03
Private Cloud Infrastructure Modernization
- Situation
- A business wanted more reliable infrastructure and less dependence on outside infrastructure providers, but ownership had to become more disciplined at the same time.
- What Jim did
- I worked on VMware private cloud architecture, migration planning, operational ownership, and infrastructure standardization.
- Result
- The environment moved toward greater control, stronger resilience, and lower long-term operating risk.
-
04
Azure Application Architecture
- Situation
- A team needed a repeatable way to deploy modern applications instead of making one-off cloud decisions for each workload.
- What Jim did
- I designed Azure Container Apps architecture for containerized workloads, shared environments, deployment boundaries, and operational controls.
- Result
- The work gave application delivery a clearer foundation for faster deployment and future growth.
-
05
Open Source Platform Modernization
- Situation
- An organization needed to reduce vendor lock-in and regain control over its web platform, data, infrastructure choices, and operating costs.
- What Jim did
- I shaped an open source architecture and modernization path around Drupal where it fit, infrastructure ownership, portability, and a maintainable delivery model.
- Result
- The organization gained more flexibility and stronger control over its roadmap.
-
06
AI Opportunity Intelligence Platform
- Situation
- A pursuit team had too much government opportunity data to review consistently and needed better support for deciding what was worth attention.
- What Jim did
- I worked on API ingestion, normalization, classification, AI-assisted analysis, workflow design, and reporting.
- Result
- The system supported faster qualification, more consistent analysis, and better pursuit decisions.
