Completed a major upgrade of a Group Life System (S36 Cobol to AS400 Cobol plus OCL to CL for 175 modules). System was undocumented so all affected components needed to be identified before conversion and testing.

Our Christmas present. Just got off the phone to a CIO of a major Auto Insurance Company who had come on board earlier this year with our Risk Free Proof of Concept.

He has expanded our involvement for 2010.
