Project: Octroi tax Management system

Octroi Tax is collected by every city on the item being entered into the city  for consumption purposes. The system was developed in Visual FoxPro in networked environment to collect tax on line. It is collected from the truck drivers and varies item wise. The system study was done and coded and fully implemented. The various MIS reports and the collection behavior was done. It was a small data mining and forecast model based study. The various modules of the system predicted the loss of revenue and its behavior with respect to the society. The System worked for 4000 trucks per day movement

 

Responsibilities:

         

 

 

Environment: Visual FoxPro and Windows NT

 

Project: Telecom Billing and Accounting System

This project was to develop a billing, accounting and Management information system for the telephone department for the state of Punjab. I led the team, which built the complete system design along with coding and running. The state is divided into districts and districts into exchanges. The transactions include the calls generating from a particular exchange. A typical district has about 100 exchanges and a100 thousand subscribers. The daily calls are about 8000 and the billing cycle is 2 months. The system

Included data collection, capturing, analysis, reconciliation, and then billing. There were about 200 different reports to be generated for different levels of management. The payment of bills after distribution was captured and the accounts ledgers were maintained and audited The total system was designed in four modules namely Data capturing, billing, information system and accounting. The Capturing was done in FoxPro, billing in COBOL, information system in PASCAL and again accounting in FoxPro. This project was run for 6 districts of Punjab for 6 years before it was successfully implemented into the in house system  which is still running.

Responsibilities

 

Environment: FoxPro, COBOL,PASCAL ,Windows NT and DOS

 

Project: Election Commission Identity Card

Feb 1976-Sep 81                                           Doctorate Fellow

I did research on computer modeling of ground water movement lying between the rivers of Sutlej and Beas. The technique used was of finite element method to solve a partial differential equation with stochastic and probabilistic boundary conditions. Also the parameters of input and output were probabilistic. The language used was FORTRAN, coded and analyzed.

 

Training:   I am trained in Data warehousing using Microstrategy tools. I also have

                  Training of 8 weeks in CRM using SIEBEL tools. However I have never

                  Worked on projects using these two tools.
