IT Delivery Manager specializing in an application called SAP.  Anyone familiar with SAP?

Yep David I deal with SAP or what the Navy calls ERP. They added a buch of custom fields that the normal reports won't show so I am trying to figure out how to navigate the ZE16.

Retired from Shell Oil as a Pressure Equipment Inspector.   I guess I miss the smell of refineries, so I stay in the game doing occasional contract inspection work.  Also supports the restoration hobbies.

I am a Civil Engineer.

I spent many years overseeing large scale construction projects (bridge/highway structures/transit stations,etc) mostly as an owner's representative.  I lived in California for working for Caltrans (State of CA Department of Transportation) and a private consultant as a bridge engineer. Very cool stuff; I got to travel literally all over California inspecting or overseeing the construction / demolition of bridges. I did a ton of travelling; there are only 3 or 4 counties I have not driven through in the 7 years I lived in CA. I moved back East & did more of the same for a bunch of years around Boston overseeing the construction of several schools and working on larger projects like the Deer Island Treatment Plant and the Big Dig debockle. After I got laid off from a General Contractor nine years ago, I started doing my own thing.

I currently work with property developers, architects & surveyors and design site utilities for new construction projects, mostly residential and small commercial development. I design on-site stormwater retention/drainage system designs, site layout/roadway design, water & sewer utilities, etc. I specialize in engineering design/permit drawings for projects in and around the Boston area.

Anyone looking to develop some property in Massachusetts?

I am 1/3 owner of our Families Insurance Agency. We are an independant agent representing over 12 Companies offering Home, Life, Auto, Business,Farm and other insurance products.  we have 8 people on staff.  I like the freedoms it allows me (like posting on SMC middle of the day, and checking in from time to time in between meetings with clients).

Another IT Geek...Service Delivery Manager for Big Blue (IBM). Nothing to see here.
