Process Modernization
- Redesign outdated processes and establish best practices for JCL, SMP/E concepts, and system performance monitoring.
- Recommend improvements to workload distribution and LPAR management based on operational needs and vendor interactions.
- Maintain up-to-date documentation on mainframe processes, tools, and procedures.
