Sample Projects

Organizational Assessments. K.J. conducted organizational assessments within departments for a national food chain. In reviewing the organizational challenges of the communication and information infrastructure, a detailed plan was created to improve the organization of the department and company. Implementation of the plan was conducted by Ms. McCorry and employees.
This project resulted in reduced time for employees looking for information and helped streamline communications within the company.

Drive Re-structuring. Ms. McCorry assisted with the re-development of a computer file structure within a government agency based out of Washington D.C. Her work included working with a team from the agency to develop the initial drive re-structure, along with development of guidelines and naming conventions. She developed a specific training for this drive re-structure for more than 200 project managers.
This project resulted in easy access of important information agency-wide, and enabled transition of projects to transpire more smoothly.

Contact Management. K.J. assisted in the development of a customized contact management system for a larger organization and helped facilitate a team in determining the details and structure of the contact management software system.
This process enabled the company to create a contact management system that was fully functional upon launch within the company.
