Urban Area Security Initiative/Homeland Security – Deepwater Horizon
In the early days of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill, Mirliton was called into support the Regional Coordination Center’s efforts to coordinate, centralize, and disseminate information among all of the critical agencies involved in the recovery efforts. The Mirliton team faced unprecedented challenges as they developed an emergency system in live production, with ever changing specifications as the needs of the emergency efforts evolved.
The system constantly evolved as the situation developed and the specific needs of the agencies involved changed. The success of the project was the rapid development and implementation of the system in a live production environment. The system helped shaped the data sharing and reporting for involved agencies as the disaster response.
George Mason University – Gap Analysis
Beginnings in the summer of 2010, Mirliton lead the consultant team facing the evaluation and modernization plan of the Office of Housing and Residence Life at George Mason University. After being managed by a private company for many years, the day-to-day management of the Office was turned back over to the supervision of the University administration. This created several challenges to fully integrate the Office into the University and then to begin moving the technology, processes and procedures forward.
The modernization team was faced the challenge of simplifying, streamlining and maximizing an office with several commercial-off-the-shelf packages and several in-house build packages. Goals for the project include: cost savings, resource reallocation, short and long term planning, custom development and systems integration. The 5-year was completed in June 2011.

Challenges of the project include: user ‘buy-in’, aged legacy systems, and complexity of systems and processes. The Mirliton management met with the DSS Modernization team to reorganize their approach to the project.
