Rodney Collins

Rodney Collins is an experienced Computer Systems Analyst (& Designer). The role of Systems Analyst is critical in contemporary system development. The Systems Analyst is a key partner with Project Managers, Business Analysts, and System Developers.

Rodney can analyse your Business Systems and design computer applications that can be coded by your inhouse developers (in any Object-Oriented Language such as PHP, C#.NET, Java, etc.) or outsourced.

Rodney uses an advanced Object-Oriented Methodology to Analyse and Design your application. He calls this methodology: "Software Engineering with Objects". This methodolody provides a solid mapping between the Analysis models and the Design models to ensure that every Business Requirement is catered for in the final application. (See SEWO or click the menu option above).

Rodney delivers Use Case Specifications (encapsulating all Business Requirements), and technical specifications from which applications can be developed.

Rodney is based in Brisbane, Australia but can work for clients on a consultancy basis almost anywhere in the world. This is usually achieved by him developing and updating 'project websites' where clients can view progress and approve various stages of the project. Of course, for clients in the greater Brisbane area or in South East Queensland (Australia), Rodney can hold workshops and presentations at the client's premises.

Rodney can provide you with a no-obligation quote for your next project.

Don't make this mistake...

Too many application development projects produce software that fails to meet their objectives (and are often a financial disaster).

I believe the reason for this is that the gap between Users (or Business Requirements) and developers has not been bridged with a Requirements Model and a meaningful System Design.

Even if a team of Business Analysts have produced a good Business Requirements specification, it is often at a conceptual level and not easily understood by Developers.

The term "Systems Analyst" seems to have fallen from use but the the role remains a vital part of every software development project. The Systems Analyst transforms Business Requirements into System Designs specifications at a logical and a physical level that are understood by Developers.

I use an Object-Oriented Analysis & Design Methodology that ensures that all Business Requirements are accounted for in the Design and in the Test Plan.

Do not let your next project fail. Hire me as a consultant to transform your Business Requirements into proper Business Models and System Models (using Industry Standard notations: BPMN & UML) that bridge the gap between Users and Developers.

Training

Rodney can provide 'training' or Information Sessions to assist your organisation's Analysts with understanding and using the BPMN, UML, and Object-Oriented Concepts.

Website Development

Rodney can custom build your Website as he specialises in Web Applications that are dynamic websites where you manage all content yourself via the website's Content Management System.

Rodney can also provide you with a Ready-to-Use Website which is a very fast and very economical way of establishing a presence on the World Wide Web.
