Allegis Group
EO Infrastructure IS Manager - Operations
Lead the technical services team, outside consultants, and contractors in maintaining the Information Services technical architecture for 110+ hospitals across the US.
Highlights for 2011 :
Complete the cloud computing initiative by moving the remaining hosted applications out of our hosting environment to virtual hosting centers. Begin efforts in designing the future virtual desktop. Support the business growth in adding more facilities to the portfolio as a result of the reduced operating expenses from the past two years. Implemented wireless and kiosks for 80+% of the environment for running the Point of Care application and positioning the company for supporting the government Electronic Medical Record (2014/2015) mandate.
Highlights for 2010 :
Migrate critical business systems to the cloud. Utilize Exchange and PeopleSoft as services. This SaaS solution will produce a significant ROI over 3 years and will solidify the IS continuity plans for the Infrastructure. Introduce new encryption technology for compliance and reporting. Begin Windows 2008 server and Windows 7 platform testing.
Highlights for 2009 :
I led the engineering effort for changing a national WAN, increasing the speeds 8x fold and netting a 3 month ROI for the purchase of the supporting infrastructure. Brought VMWare's VSphere and VMotion products into environment, virtualizing over 180 servers in a fully redundant architecture with a new hosting center. Led the effort to virtualize a VAX architecture, emulated on a Windows platform. With cutting off 10kw/hr electrical consumption the ROI for the required infrastructure and software purchases was realized in less then 6 months.
