Led and/or assisted in the development of numerous winning proposals, including two large Air Force proposals. The engineering and technical support services (ETSS) contract was awarded at $90M and the subsequent ETSS II contract was awarded with a value of $330M. From 2000 to 2006, managed a software development team providing net-centric services to the Air Intelligence Agency (AIA). Developed, fielded and supported a classified Web portal which initially served AIA, and was expanded to serve 17 different Air Force organizations. Ultimately, migrated total capability to provide baseline for an Air Force-level classified portal. • Integrated dozens of applications, created 100+ Java/J2EE servlets with XML registration pages, and constructed 1,200 static and dynamic JSP content modules. • Provided content management, software development, training and help desk support. • For one agency spearheading the investigation of the Space Shuttle Columbia disaster, created a separate portal instance and implemented a unique three-tier security access control system. • Rewrote much of the Java Struts-based Broadvision portal software to provide new capabilities, including sub-portals, unlimited number of branded content pages, enhanced security, improved collaboration, and document management. • Initial portal efforts included requirements definition, technology evaluations, and a cost-benefit analysis to recommend the technological solution. Subsequently developed three prototypes using Oracle, Sun iPlanet (now Oracle), and Plumtree (now Oracle BPM).From 1997 to 2000 managed four networks within the AIA Technology Demonstration Center. • As a proof-of-concept, developed a Web-based application that employed Java, CORBA and native methods to correlate information from mapping, database and legacy systems
