Application workflows in the areas of energy saving, economic development and export control.
Management of hybrid projects (agile and classic) to implement administration-specific software (application workflows) for use across federal and state levels. This included developing custom business and funding procedures in the areas of energy saving, economic development and export control, used internally by caseworkers. Responsibilities also included shaping internal projects such as secure integration into the document management system (DMS), integrating authentication components in line with the Online Access Act (OZG) – ELSTER / Federal User Account, and ensuring the connection of internal specialist applications to the ERiC client (in the KONSENS context) for transmitting payment runs to tax offices. These projects used central components that were continuously optimized and adapted to new requirements. Agile methods were used for front-end, back-end, interface development and integration with downstream systems. Another key responsibility was leading the Project Management Office (PMO) for the client, including preparing, conducting and following up weekly leadership meetings to review progress and resource use in ongoing projects.

As part of the "OZG Program for Digitalization of Administration", an independent and comprehensive framework for the Online Access Act (OZG) was developed. The goal was to establish standardized, factory-like work processes to improve the delivery of OZG services. Individual services from the service catalog (LeiKa) were converted into online forms in coordination with the respective specialist departments and coordination offices. This close collaboration ensured that all specific requirements were considered. The developed processes and forms were extensively tested and optimized for seamless integration into existing systems. Special attention was given to usability and process efficiency. The framework’s implementation significantly improved the administration of OZG services and increased the efficiency of work processes, leading to higher user satisfaction and productivity.

Optimization of the “Usage Monitoring in the Gas Sector” concept by restructuring the monitoring process.
Optimization and further development of a testing procedure to monitor compliance with requirements for the use of measuring devices and values in the gas sector according to current laws, standards and DVGW Worksheet G685. The main goal of the procedure is to ensure proper use of measuring devices and validate the legality of measured values and other parameters used for billing in the gas sector. Adaptive software components were developed to improve efficiency and effectiveness. A key part of this software is a tool for analyzing and evaluating data transmitted in EDIFACT format, enabling consistent and secure electronic data analysis and significantly enhancing measurement data accuracy and reliability. Workshops were also conducted to ensure all participants understood and applied the legal requirements and technical standards according to DVGW Worksheet G685.
