We have got urgent openings for Business Analyst. Please feel free to contact Julian George.

Business Analyst w/systems review background


* Location: Madison, WI (resources can work from either location)
* Duration: 36 months
   Face-to-Face: Face-to-face interview is typically REQUIRED after phone screen.
DESCRIPTION:

The School and Community Nutrition teams need assistance with our Information Technology (IT) systems. Our current Food and Nutrition System (FNS) program is complex and needs multiple upgrades. We continue to have a timeline of planned enhancements for FNS that extends beyond 2013. This timeline does not include daily trouble-shooting or incorporating the new U. S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Child Nutrition Reauthorization regulations.
The School and Community Nutrition teams have an increased need to replace complex paper administration of programs with the development of online applications/functions, rising program maintenance/enhancement needs, on-going DPI IT, fiscal team project requests, and interfaces with the Administrative Reviews and Training (ART) grant.
The School and Community Nutrition teams are responsible for administering fourteen Child Nutrition Programs. Each nutrition program is unique and requires specific applications, programming, language and platforms. The FNS computer system was built internally by DPI in 1995. FNS is a critical computer program responsible for payments to schools/agencies totaling approximately 20 million dollars each month. FNS is the central system for the Food and Nutrition programs and provides the following functions.
• Payment of claims
• Online contract/applications/claim submission
• Data collection
• Historical data/reports
• Interfaces with other state wide programs

Without an assessment of our IT needs and options, the Community and School Nutrition Teams will not be able to meet all of the assistance and monitoring requirements in accordance with regulations, nor appropriately manage the rising demands of the USDA and schools/agencies throughout the State.
