The EU Analytics (formerly Business Intelligence / Data Analytics) program is a multi-phase project that will "maximize available information and trends to improve operations and overall customer experience." The project roughly comprised three main components - raw ingestion, Data Access Platform (DAP) and the analytics engine(s). Kim worked with the Xtensible team on the DAP component for two of the phases of this project. The DAP integrates the content sourced from disparate systems (e.g. OMS, IRS, Asset Suite, Cascade, ARC/GIS) and from each of the six utilties comprising Exelon. The first phase addressed the key use cases that support network connectivity. The second phase developed capabilities around outage prediction and response efficiencies, including assessment of overall asset health. The DAP structure was based on the CIM industry standard data model, with extensions to support specific business and data science use cases.

Kim was brought into the program to take responsibility for the initiation and conclusion of a number of research and analysis sub-projects. Three of the sub-projects were corporate wide assessments for 1) quality factors impacting (mostly) Pipeline Integrity, 2) all applications, data sets and business processes that will be impacted by the replacement of the current GIS, and 3) the impact on business processes, data sets and applications of the introduction of dual linear measurement systems. Kim was also responsible for completion of the physical data dictionary corresponding to the first two releases of the GIS data management system. Lastly, Kim is pulling together requirements for the 1) transition of components of the Hydraulics data management system to take advantage of the new GIS map interface, 2) the development of new processes for image processing to take advantage of the latest ARCGIS servers, and 3) system information to support sustainment.

Kim is a member of the Groundswell DA team that is responsible for providing data architecture and data analyst services for projects initiated by the DMS group at Cenovus. The projects mostly involved content moving into and/or out of the Cenovus data warehousing systems, EDW (formerly EDD) and FIS. The major project was the upgrade of both EDW and FIS to support the Wellview v9 and Siteview v4. Kim's role was data architect and, to some extent, subject matter expert for EDW, Wellview and Siteview, and well data, in general.

Model, design, build and deploy the infrastructure necessary to support the acquisition, management, sale and distribution of publicly available information on land of interest to the oil industry. This would include information on crown agreements, freehold titles and encumbrances, federal lands, calculations of open crown rights, and land sales. The principal feature of this system is integration of land information from all jurisdictions under a common PPDM v3.5 land data model, using a 3D rights model. This was a turnkey project starting with elicitation and documentation of requirements, the preparation and presentation of a specification and budget. The requirements were continually refined, verified and validated with the clients subject matter experts and web delivery team.

The Corporate Well System for this (primarily) A&D oil company is the repository and administration tool for managing all of Talisman's wells. The system is designed to maintain information on this key corporate asset and to integrate data pertaining to wells from accounting, land, reserves and the public data sources. The technologies used, the system architecture and the supported business processes are a very significant advance on an existing VAX/Sybase system that is slated for retirement on completion of this project.The architecture of the system is traditional client/server, except that all support for business rules and processes are managed by back-end Oracle objects. The front-end application supports basic query, edit and reporting capabilities only. Burying the business rules directly in Oracle objects presented some interesting challenges, but resulted in a system that can be integrated with other corporate applications while ensuring the integrity of the business processes.Kim was responsible for:1. The data model.2. Eliciting and documenting user requirements.3. Overall system architecture.4. Detailed design of the business objects to support the requirements and cross-referencing these to Oracle triggers and stored procedures.5. Coordinating design and (some) development efforts and providing partial project management support.6. Preparing development plans for back-end business objects.7. Preparing test and implementation plans.
