BDP Process Improvement Award Winner
Frank McGaley, Solutions Development - BDP Philadelphia nominated Information Technology colleague, Joe Conley, for his exceptional programming contributions, ideas, and customer service resulting in several, successful redesigns to the BDPSmart Vu (BDP Vu) application.

"Joe picked up a huge part of the responsibility and redesign of Vu.
Additional processes were built after the initial integration. Joe played an integral role here."

To explain the depth of the project scope, Frank remarked, "Joe routinely comes back with ideas; new components to Vu. He brings a level of innovation to the application; taking the ideas that are brought to him and truly thinks about them. He is a programmer who who will 'think about' the requested changes prior to making the changes. He usually comes back with an even better idea than what was originally proposed. His learning and experience is all about striving for excellence. Joe is continuously available at all hours of the day and weekends to take my calls; even while preparing for a Master’s exam. This is an outstanding level of customer service."
.
"Joe is the embodiment of what BDP strives for in an IT employee. He listens, he understands, he’s not afraid to make suggestions. He does not take code to just change code. He thinks about what we’re asking him to do.
He analyzes and maps the data to get it in place. Joe is a tremendous help (and a Manchester City fan, too)."

In addition, Joe has been integrating select data elements from BDP Vu to tie into the BDP ISF 10 + 2 application. The desired result is to piggy-back data between the two programs to drive internal efficiencies and support consistent data.
