CIPS (Clinical Investigator Payment System)
This web based system for creating vendor payments replaces a manual/paper based payment processing system shortening the time it takes to make a payment and lowering payment processing costs. It includes complex work-flow processing for payment request approval and is deeply integrated with several company systems including an SAP accounts payable system.
Since this was a financial system, that had to be approved by the firms auditing group, the entire system was design up front using UML models, and then built from a full set of specifications. It is a full-blown J2EE application running on the Oracle Application Server with an Oracle database as the backend.
This application was retired in 2006 after five years of uninterrupted operation.
