Return to Christo van Rensburg's Homepage.
I understand that you want results, not technical jargon.
I will focus on business issues and listen to you, your business users, and your clients.
I will try to understand their needs, and offer a definable solution.
And I will deliver services in a competent, ethical and professional way.
Often, many clients have specific practical problems that they want me to help solve. E.g.:
New product or business development requires enhancements to current models and structures
Company or product takeovers resulted in silo applications and databases and effivient solutions are needed
Current data models are out of date and standards for new modelling techniques are lacking - best practices and standards need to be implemented
Databases and/or XML Schema were designed by developers, resulting in data inefficiencies, lack of data integrity, and low performance - database refactoring is often required
Data quality is a problem - data ownership, security and privacy need to be addressed and a data stewardship program is needed
Data strategy is an issue, business value of data has been overlooked and business intelligence is not reliable
Business rules and metadata have not been captured, or the documentation is not up to date
Apart from providing solutions to the problems above, I can make contributions in the following areas, amongst others:
Data architecture and systems business analysis
Design of Internet-based distributed applications with database backends
Data analysis, data modeling, and database and data warehouse design
Advice on enterprise architecture and technical strategies
Advice on package selection,and assistance with integration
Technical leadership and development process improvement
What?
Web-application design is about more than online brochures.
With my strong information technology experience, I will design
useable online functionality and the information systems
that your business or organization needs now,
but always with reference to maximizing quality and client focus.
Additionally I can offer the advice and leadership skills to make it happen.
How?
I am accustomed to using proven tools and modern techniques to design solid, reliable systems
which will meet your and other users' needs and expectations. The systems will minimize your support
and maintenance costs by being technically robust yet also flexible.
Who?

including enterprise-wide projects in the education, finance, healthcare, mining, primary producer, public service, software vendors, transport, and utility industries.
I have a particular interest in Health IT, Life Sciences IT and Green IT.
Where?
I am based in Sydney, NSW, but can easily travel to Canberra, Melbourne or further afield
(including regional and rural areas).
