Designed
several TEAMTRACK workflows for human resource processes involving new
employees, existing employee requests, and employees leaving NASA. Analyzed existing documentation and provided
overall technical support and consultation for all areas involving Installation,
Administration, and Development.
·
Implemented
the above "Check In / Move Change / Check Out" system using TEAMTRACK,
built around a "Request / Approval / Fulfillment" process that interacts
with several other (linked) workflows. Wrote
many TEAMSCRIPT programs to synchronize data across workflows, and created
