Mrs. Thomas is currently operating in the capacity of a Technical Writer supporting the Director of Navy Staff (DNS-4).

The document inventory is made up of 10 different functions, tasks and applications and over 100 documents.

This was done to ensure that all documentation coincides with the firm's configuration management requirements. She has drafted User Guides for Flag and SES level users, created a new hire manual as well as wrote and executed test scripts for Share Point and Navy sites. Mrs. Thomas recently re-structured the DNS meeting and team framework to align with the Scrum Methodology to Project Management.

Consultant

Mrs. Thomas worked at the client site supporting The Bureau of Naval Personnel's Information Management Office's CIO. She worked closely with senior Naval and Civilian personnel. Her key role was Enterprise Information Management where she established the foundation for the implementation of an enterprise wide data governance program. Mrs. Thomas also researched Department of Defense and Department of Navy policies, standards and regulations concerning data, to ensure that all Manpower, Training and Education (MPTE) systems and databases were 100% compliant. She helped to establish the Enterprise Information Management Board (EIMB), responsible for enforcing data quality standards across MPTE. She contributed to the development of the board through the creation of foundational documents used to establish the EIMB and worked with stakeholders to foster data quality. This was achieved by holding monthly meetings, drafting strategy documents, instructions and templates that set and communicated data standards and best practices across MPTE based on the Data Management Association's terminology and guidance. While working as an analyst and technical writer for BUPERS, Mrs. Thomas was responsible for determining the scope for data-related projects, analyzing data flow processes and providing data impact analysis to Senior Officers, the Director of Information Resources Management, and other government personnel. She gathered metric requirements and documented them in a Functional Requirements Document for the Enlisted Supply Chain corporate metrics used to automate manual reporting and analysis.
