Deployments

I have developed a strategy to ensure that the scopes meet requirements for stakeholders and installers to know where to place devices by staging and modeling projects. ⮝

Interactive Scopes. ⮝

I have developed a system to create scopes for new projects using templates. This strategy facilitates the writing of the content and hosts the templates to stage the devices. This solution contains budget tools and creates matrices for decision-making.

Digital Inventory. ⮝

Color-coded labels matching the digital inventory for easy access. ⮝

We have used different inventory systems to provide a way for organizations to manage their stock.

We have designed self-service solutions and catalog systems hosted on an intranet webpage where teachers and administration staff can go directly and search for the device they need. Once selected, staff members use the ticket system to place the request.

This catalog not only can help to locate devices but also provide the location in the storage and drawers around the building.

This image is an example of how we take a database and a script that generates a file for deployment. We use a scanner to read the asset tags of equipment delivered to staff members. ⮝

Depending on the application is the scanner we used.| In this case, we create a system with labels generated with scripts to track locations and other features on the devices at the storage unit. ⮝

In combination with inventory systems, I have developed solutions using databases and labels to solve deployments and storage problems.

Using labelers systems that work with CSV files, I have created diverse workflows with scripts that obtain information from inventories and merge them with the request from Human Resources for onboarding or off-boarding. The result is labeled with barcodes to make the process easier for IT departments.

Diagrams of the space with dimensions so the furniture company can design the spaces. Since this was not a new building, we had to manage the arrangement of cables. This space contains up and down desks that require a particular cable management system. ⮝

We have to stage the connections for the network, power, and racks. Placement of the power strips was designed on the leg of the desks using special anchors to hold them in place. We deployed all the patching for the network and printing capabilities. ⮝

At DPPC, the HR and Finance unit moved to another office within the building.

We helped to plan the movement and choose the furniture to be able to place computers and copiers for the space.

We designed floor plans so the furniture company could do they proposal.

We create the templates and the staging of all the electrical, networking and devices to connect the office to the mainframe at the central office.

We did the installation and patching of the equipment.

We provide AV recommendations to the training department that was going to move in. We include an iRover system to hold remote conference capabilities for this space.

As a consultant, I have participated in different remodeling projects. In each of them, I have been responsible for creating floor plans, scopes, and templates for the installation. ⮝

On each of the projects I have done, I staged the final devices and installations in the rooms, walls, or spaces that have been selected for the project so stakeholders can do walk-throughs to give feedback. ⮝

We used Gantt charts, checklists, reports, and diagrams for project management, to ensure we monitored all schedules. This strategy provides the correct preventive and remedial actions during deployment. ⮝

When the projects are closed, I leave all my sites with an intranet containing their Operating Manual that details all the documentation produced for all people involved. This intranet documentation is placed in a sharable space using Google Docs or Office 365 that allows the creation of links so stakeholders can review them and create their maintenance plans to ensure the continuity of their project. ⮝

I was the IT consultant for remodeling a church into a school. The project’s owner was Beacon Academy, and the objective was to build a school for 50 students and 23 staff members. The building also will be used as a location to showcase the efforts of the organization for a total occupancy of 164 people.

This project called for new electrical wiring, network wire, a wireless network, an access control system, Surveillance, IP phone, an Aiphone system, Conferencing system, Signage system, and TV systems.

We did the initial assessment of the project. We created all the floor plans of the location.

We made all the scopes of the project, which detail all the needs obtained through the assessment.

We staged all the equipment and devices in the building to allow stakeholders to assess the dimensions, location, and connections that were going to be done during the deployment so they can assess viability.

We received the acceptance of the project. I finalized the diagrams and organized the bid for the entire project.

I supervise deployment as a whole and start building the documentation so we can ensure that at the end, the organization will have a plan of maintenance and continuity.

An Operating manual was designed to hold all their documentation using Google Sites so all the process can be shared with all the stakeholders and associations that funded the project.

Microsoft 365 suite deployment with the Microsoft Authenticator using checklists and remote systems to deploy to all computers of DPPC staff members. We performed a total of 93 deployments. ⮝

I deployed the Microsoft 365 suite at DPPC to all users.

This deployment requires adding users to the cloud management system and setting up security and Microsoft Authenticator to attach access to a second-step verification procedure.

This deployment was done remotely and, in some cases, on-site.

The procedures were followed by using a checklist recording the deployment of the users.

Using HID printers and Active Directory as the primary database, we have to generate automatization procedures to produce keycards. ⮝

We have built repositories that contain pictures pulled from systems to add photo IDs to diverse systems, from organizational charts, directory lists, and credentials. These access cards allow access through the access control devices and manage the release of printing material across the organization. ⮝

I have experience managing access control, print management systems, and Access Cards in several organizations.

Using Active Directory or CSV files, we have created interoperability automatization, adding users into the security systems and adding picture files to create credentials for access cards and printing release methods.

We deployed the IBM 360 Mobile Device Management to all the iPhones and iPads for DPPC. We had 133 devices with 93 users. ⮝

I am interested in experimenting with new technologies to help projects fulfill their mission. I have developed several prototypes, such as electronic designs, software, and infrastructure solutions using models like the waterfall, spiral and agile SDLC strategies. These projects have used wireless access points and a transmitter that pinpoints the locations of signals and sends a warning signal through phone systems and computers. Staff members safely deliver clinical and educational interventions for students with developmental disabilities by using these prototypes.

POS Documentation. ⮝

POS system. ⮝

I deployed, maintained, and managed the POS systems (Point of Sale) from the Heartland for food services at Holbrook Public Schools. I have deployed the database on portable laptops, set up the keypad and barcode readers, and maintained the database on the cloud. I designed scripts to push new students' files into the database. I also made configurations to the SIS system to export counts on lunches. I also developed a script so the SIS system can send out the fee and reduce counts to the primary SIS system.

This image is the Robin web base system to do rental space at DPPC. Its deployment required opening accounts for 120 users and installing the shortcuts from the web base system in each computer. We upload all Floor plans from the spaces into the cloud system. ⮝

This image is the automatization example of generating accounts for the system. Now the onboarding procedures create the files to add users automatically using a CSV file. ⮝

Robin web base system is a solution to place floor plans and assigned spaces that can be used as shared spaces by users that are coming to DPPC facilities.

We designed the floor plans and digitalized them to upload them into the system.

We work with the leadership group to select the rental spaces, and add descriptions of the tech offerings in each room and upload them into the program.

On the web scripter we develop a section to create a CSV file with users names and properties of the account to import into the system and deploy faster the solution.

We pushed short cuts for desktops and web links using the MDM solutions to all devices.

This image is an example of a GUI that shows how to install software and its tutorial that guides the user step by step on the installation. ⮝

During the pandemic, there were many requests to support users remotely.

Among these requests was software installation.

Responding to such demands, I have developed scripts creating simple GUIs that allow IT staff members or users to follow specific instructions for new deployments.

With these GUIs, we also have created documentation that helps with images on how to self-service IT requests.
