March 15, 2015

Washington, DC, March 2015 — Cooke Communications is a print and online media provider with a long-standing relationship with Expression Networks for IT support, web hosting and website development.

Expression Networks maintains infrastructure and provides consulting and development services for over 1000 domains for industries such as tourism, the arts and hospitality managed by Floridakeys.com, a subsidiary of Cooke Communications. Accessibility is always a concern for high-profile sites, and Expressions has consulted with many of the diverse clients for Floridakeys.com on issues such as usability for text readers and mobile devices.

The Key West Citizen, owned by Cooke Communications, is a newspaper with a circulation of about 25,000. In 2002, the Citizen initiated a project to publish all content in PDF format, as well as archiving articles. These efforts required manipulating XML, PDF and flat text files to produce the desired output and automate all possible stages of the publishing process.

Expression Networks, with a long-standing relationship with Cooke Communications, was chosen to implement the software system to accomplish these objectives. The end result of these projects can be viewed at https://secure.floridakeys.com/keysnews/enews (PDF edition of The Key West Citizen) and https://secure.floridakeys.com/keysnews/archives (XML import to a SQL Server database).

EXPRESSION NETWORKS FACILITATES SPECTRUM REQUIREMENTS AND ALLOCATIONS FOR DSO, WITHIN DISA

March 06, 2015

March 6, 2015 by Expression Networks

Washington, DC, March 2015, Within the Defense Information Systems Agency, the Defense Spectrum Organization (DSO) required a research and development capability to facilitate spectrum requirements/reallocation analyses and report generation.

Specifically, DSO required document management, collaboration, workflow, supporting analysis, and enterprise services and application support to achieve this goal. We worked closely with DSO stakeholders to implement a fully functional system capable of streamlining and automating the complex analyses of spectrum data in order to provide a comprehensive, strategic view of DoD Spectrum data to senior decision-makers.

The Expression Networks team began with a requirements review and Analysis of Alternatives (AoA) of possible Enterprise Services that DISA/DSO could leverage to achieve an Interim Operating Capability (IOC). Additionally we identified each DoD Enterprise Architecture that would be suitable for content management integration while highlighting opportunities of process improvement.

We built out the Content Management portion of SRRAC for DSO in a similar fashion to one we have built for the Army ECM platform (IBM FileNet P8). Given our prior experience loading thousands of MS Word, Excel, and PowerPoint documents into Army ECM and creating custom connectors to connect to several Army agency databases (MS SQL Server and Oracle), we are able to provide target users with access to historical documents, data, and email to support testing with meaningful data.

Additionally, we implemented IBM Case Manager to provide the following services:

• A modular add-on to Army’s existing ECM capabilities to provide for rapid development of advanced case-centric applications
• Built on IBM FileNet P8 Business Process Manager and Content Manager;

• Includes Content Analytics, WebSphere ILOG jRules, Cognos RealTimeMonitoring, Instant Messaging and Collaboration – for use within case solutions;

Expression Networks successfully worked and implemented this project from March 2013 to March 2015.
