PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE

Lockheed Martin Owego, NY           01/2012-Present

Missle and Fire Control Division of Lockheed Martin

Senior HANA Architect

COS PROJECT (01/2012-Present)

The COS Project is a Common Operating System Project that will bring the various Lockheed Martin Sites into one single instance of SAP.

 

HANA and Business Objects Development done across all the below Areas for the COS Project:

Developed all Technical Specifications based on Functional Specifications that outlines required Characteristics, Measures and Business Rules.  The Technical Specification outlined the overall HANA design to meet and satisfy the Business Reporting Requirements.

 

Developed the following HANA Data Models:  Attribute Views for master data, Analytic Views for Transaction Data and Calculation Views (Graphical and SQL Script) to Join/Union the various Attribute and Analytic Views.

 

Developed the following in Business Objects:  Business Layer (Universe) which contained all the Characteristics and Measures in the underlying HANA Data Model (Calculation View).  Webi reports developed from the Business Layer.  In addition Dashboards and Crystal Reports were developed for required formatted reporting.

 

Business Objects Data Services utilized to create Real-Time Web Service Developed to read HANA calculation views for external users reporting requirements.

 

Utilized HANA as a secondary Database for complex reporting requirements by developing an ABAP program on the ECC side to read various tables in Hana.  This program would then update a Z table which would then be setup for SLT table replication.  This type of development would compare to a BI/BW Delta nightly dataload.  The program would run nightly and updated data would replicate to Hana in this Z table.  This type of development was done when complex calculations needed to take place that was better suited for ABAP then HANA Studio Development.

 

Setup Table Replication (SLT) for ECC and 3^rd party tables real time into Hana.  Data replication enhancements created for custom fields when required (during replication).

 

HANA transporting  done through the Import/Export via the Developer Mode and Business Objects transporting done via the CMC.

Shipment errors by storage type and status - US IO WM shipment errors by storage type and status report gave the user the ability to analyze WM shipment errors. Shipment errors were defined when available stock + storage type 916 was EQ to pick quantity + storage type 552. The report would only show records where these records were equal. These records indicated shipment errors that needed correcting.

 

Storage type and whom created - US IO IM & WM storage type and whom created report gave the user the ability to analyze the available stock by a storage type entered (for example 911) and see what the username was and informed the user to correct the error.

 

Batch shelf life with value - US IO IM inventory batch shelf life with consolidated value dashboard gave the user the ability to show by material and batch what lots were already expired, which were still valid and which were within 2 weeks of expiring. If the lots were expired, the dashboard would show a red traffic light. If it was valid, it showed a green traffic light, and if it was within 2 weeks of expiring, it showed a yellow traffic light. In addition, the consolidated price associated with the lot was also shown the value lost from an expired lot.

If the manufacture time was greater than the standard time then the stage got a red traffic light. If the manufacture time was less than or equal to the standard time then the stage got a green traffic light.

 

BI INSPECTION LOT (QM) PROJECT (06/2009-12/2009)

Sanofi Pasteur

Inspection Lot/UD (QM)

ROI – Process Order Performance was another report that was run by multiple variants for different product families and needed much manual manipulation to bring the metric to clean functional output. POP report from the inspection lot/UD cube consolidated all the product families and multiple variants into a single output document with a summary performance. Main efficiency became ease of use; anyone could run report and achieve the same output without prior training. Worked with 2LIS_05_QVUDN extractor (where actual UD taken place) and generic extractor Z5_INSP_LOT_ATTR where UD had not taken place yet. Created new DSO, Cube and MultiProvider.

POP - This report gave a summary of business performance in regards to what was produced versus the defined supply plan. POP was a metric for all material types, but RAW materials. The report was what ZPM5 provided in PR5. Selection criteria was plant, process order type, inspection lot origin, tolerance days, scheduled finish date, material, batch, MRP controller and UD code. The metric took the UD change date and subtracted it from the scheduled finish date of the order. It then compared the difference between these 2 dates and compared it to the tolerance days entered (14 days was the standard). If the difference was less than or equal to 14 days then it was on time (=1). If the difference was greater than 14 days then it was late (=2).

 

Global Complaints and Sales by Product – This report showed by the year the notification was created and the country from the customer the notification was created in the number of complaints, the sales in doses, the complaints per dose, the unit sales and the complaints per unit.

 

Global complaints and Sales by Product - This report showed by the year the notification was created and the material the notification was created in the number of complaints, the sales in doses, the complaints per dose, and the unit sales.

 

Global complaints by Priority – This report showed the number of complaints within a given year the notification was created by the priority and notification code.

BI PROCESS ORDER PROJECT (PP) (05/2008-12/2008)

Sanofi Pasteur

ROI – Brought additional data above financially relevant phases, allowing for more complete analysis regarding budget review. Provided detailed reports such as schedule adherence and WIP that gave a direct line to production floor performance analysis. WIP captured data previously unavailable.

 

ROI – Quick, efficient reporting of recipe vs. actual consumption. Provided business the ability to trend and adjust recipes for greater efficiency. Material yield brought the ability to track campaign yields for multiple materials in one report, greatly enhancing report performance.

 

Reports included BOM accuracy actual and plan by component (straight from recipe so some components never consumed), BOM accuracy actual only by component (only showed what was actually consumed), and put to stock and material yield.

 

Worked with 2LIS_04_P_ARBPL and 2LIS_04_P_COMP extractor to pull process order data.

 

Reports included past due phases (global metric), confirmed hours, schedule adherence, WIP, actual vs. plan; past due that gave a summary of phases that were open and past due; confirmed hours showed confirmed phases with the confirmed hours (from the standard value tab within the phase) by resource; schedule adherence measured production phase scheduled finish date vs. actual phase confirmation date; WIP gave a summary of orders that had consumed materials, but had not been put into stock. This report was utilized to monitor the open WIP; actual vs. plan showed the actual vs. plan hours for a given time period based on actual confirmation date;

 

BOM accuracy actual vs. plan by component level only that showed a comparison of the bill of material master data to the actual confirmed data within each process order. The data was based off the table RESB in SAP. Data could be analyzed on 2 levels (level 1: by actual consumption, and level 2: by a master data view only), meaning the recipe called for this amount and the actual consumption was this amount. Resulted in a pure BOM accuracy snapshot of the data.

 

BOM accuracy actual vs. plan by component and component batch showed a comparison of the bill of material master data to the actual confirmed data within each process order. The data was based off the table MSEG in SAP. This data could only be analyzed on a actual level only, meaning if a recipe called for a certain amount of a material and there was never any material picked it would not show up in the report.

 

Put to Stock gave a summary of materials that have been put into stock.

 

Material Yield showed a comparison of quantity put to stock vs. material picked to that process order (batch-managed components only).
