I worked for over 30 years on the Chorus suite of applications, mostly developing solutions on the IBM i server using RPG.

The bulk of the time I've spent working on Chorus applications has been in the delivery of bespoke software solutions and the following list outlines just a few of those.

Development of an industry specific contract management system, capturing details from the point of contact with a new client right through to the management and billing of services.

I was part of a team that had been given the task of migrating data for a number of NHS trusts, from their current systems to their new Advanced Health and Care, CareNotes system. I was given the responsibility of managing the data migration for one particular NHS trust, although I also helped out on a few others as project deadlines necessitated.

I've developed a number of websites over the years, originally my own hobby style sites but since I learnt that Ruby and Rails was being ported to the IBM i server, I immediately became interested and use it for the bulk of my web development projects.

This was an exciting opportunity being a fully-fledged commercial website for a new start-up business. This project provided the opportunity to develop further knowledge and new skills, from account registration, online payments, building site administration features, enabling SSL certifications, administering hosted servers, domain management, DNS management, DB management, email management … and a few others.

From the initial requirements analysis, through to design, development, testing and go-live. This was an end to end project that was single-handedly managed and I am proud to have kept to the agreed schedule and deliver a very credible and successful solution.

This was a website for a new small Bed and Breakfast business, and although the requirements were simple, the key objectives were to create a site that would stand out from the list of many in this sector, and ensure the site is responsive, can easily be found and used.
