Andrej U.
Last position:
Technical Project & Rollout Manager / IT Service Manager at Klinikum
- Stabilized the cross-site workplace/printer rollout and transferred it into reliable operational processes. Ongoing hospital operations, new naming conventions, new print servers in a different AD structure, Kerberos dependencies, management systems and inconsistent inventory data.
- Took over technical workstreams and escalated risks at an early stage. Interface between IT operations, project organization, internal employees and external service providers; independently responsible for critical technical workstreams without formal overall project management.
- Fully consolidated the central master/rollout data. Correlated serial number, MAC, IP, location and old/new device references from several sources and established them as a shared working basis for rollout, follow-up work, location and toner processes.
- Technically stabilized the printer rollout. 717 devices in the consolidated rollout scope, including 431 replacement devices; 114 documented deviations. Controlled, created or validated around 2,000 printer/queue objects.
- Proposed Location B as an independent work package and managed it technically. Consolidated 216 old devices into 88 new devices; implemented this in around 10 working days with 1-2 external technicians. Prepared ClearPass, TXT/mapping and ORBIS offset topics in parallel.
- Made several thousand existing TXT/VBS client assignments suitable for bulk migration. Defined old/new mapping, new print servers, Follow-Me, queue, suffix and tray logic; developed checking/correction logic for incorrect manual names.
- Built and productively verified cross-domain FollowMe. Used the historical username attribute to map between the old and new AD domains; stopped further expansion when data quality was no longer reliable.
- Developed the technical approach for hardware/queue reconciliation. Correlated standard lists, print server objects and real devices using IP/SNMP; defined rules for MAC, serial number, IP, location, toner, trays, keep/remove/rename, duplicates and rollback.
- Built AI-assisted automation under time pressure. Developed and stabilized PowerShell/XML tools with independently developed process, data and validation logic, test cases, logging, DryRun/guardrail approaches, error analysis and live validation.
- Designed an HTTP/web platform as a target architecture that was not introduced into production. Technically designed ASP.NET Core 8, .NET Worker, SQLite and PowerShell 5.1 for job control, target/actual comparison, logging/audit, recovery, queueing and locking.
- Operationalized toner, location and operational processes. Consolidated TA-Cockpit location data; established toner/order logic with prioritized run lists; supported Follow-Me, duplex and Scan2Mail pilots.
- Worked out the KRITIS/emergency topic in detail. Structured and visualized printer operations during power/infrastructure failures, coordinated internally and supported the integration into the emergency concept.
- Coordinated the workplace/IGEL client rollout with 1.200+ thin clients from a technical and operational perspective. Prepared the project from 11/2025 and continued it from mid-09/2026. Technically reviewed and structured the process from unpacking and labeling/inventory to setup; handed over operational unpacking/label coordination to a colleague so several employees could work in parallel.
- Personally prepared around 120 thin clients for production. Together with a technical colleague, primarily responsible for finding a solution for automated IGEL-OS-12 installation; productive automation is currently still open.
- Saved around 83 hours of manual ClearPass data entry. Created a PowerShell/import script for ClearPass and demonstrably saved the network colleague around 83 hours of manual entry for 1.200 thin clients; at the same time, significantly reduced the risk of manual errors.
- Supplied formal project management with technical results. Operational results, technical feasibility, process structure and status from the responsible workstreams serve as an important basis for steering by the official project manager.
- Documentation & handover. Documented rollout, AQrate, TA-Cockpit and automation processes, conducted training and tested, configured and prepared around 25 digital medical carts for operation.

About the technology
What VBScript does
VBScript, or Visual Basic Scripting Edition, is a Microsoft scripting language used mainly for Windows automation and legacy application support. It runs through Windows Script Host, Internet Information Services and older Microsoft environments. Companies still rely on it for repeatable tasks around files, users, reports and internal tools.
Typical applications
VBScript is practical when an existing Windows process already depends on scripts and replacing it would create unnecessary risk.
- Automating file transfers, folder cleanup and scheduled routines
- Creating reports from spreadsheets, text files and databases
- Supporting classic ASP pages and internal web tools
- Managing Windows Script Host tasks and command-line workflows
Ecosystem and tooling
Strong VBScript specialists understand the surrounding Windows stack, not just the language syntax. Relevant skills include WSH objects, ActiveX and COM, Windows Management Instrumentation, Microsoft Office automation, classic ASP, IIS, SQL queries and batch files. They also work with PowerShell when a staged modernization path makes sense.
When companies need specialists
Freelance expertise is useful when undocumented scripts have become business-critical, an experienced team member leaves, or a migration must happen without interrupting daily operations. In Germany, manufacturing, logistics, finance and public-sector organizations may still operate Windows-based workflows that require careful maintenance and controlled change.
- Reviewing fragile or undocumented script collections
- Fixing failures after Windows, Office or infrastructure changes
- Connecting scripts to databases, mail systems or file shares
- Preparing a safe transition to PowerShell or another solution
What strong professionals deliver
A capable professional first maps inputs, outputs, dependencies and permissions. They add clear error handling, logging, validation and safe handling of credentials instead of applying quick fixes that hide the root cause. They test scripts against realistic Windows policies and document how operations teams can run and support them.
Working model and quality
VBScript work can often be completed remotely when secure access, test data and a clear contact are available. On-site collaboration may help when scripts touch local devices, restricted networks or production procedures; German and English communication can both matter in distributed teams. Judge quality through a focused technical review, a reproducible test plan, readable documentation and a practical rollback path.
Frequently asked questions
Need clarity? These are the questions we hear most often about VBScript.
VBScript is mainly used for Windows automation, classic ASP applications, Office tasks, file handling and integrations with COM-based systems. It remains valuable where established business workflows depend on existing scripts and need reliable maintenance.
VBScript is lightweight and widely embedded in older Windows workflows, while PowerShell offers richer administration features, modern objects and stronger tooling. The right choice depends on the existing environment, migration risk and the scope of the automation.
A strong VBScript specialist often works with Windows Script Host, WMI, COM, ActiveX, IIS, classic ASP, SQL, batch files and Microsoft Office automation. Familiarity with PowerShell helps when a company wants to modernize gradually rather than replace every script at once.
The need depends less on script length than on system criticality and integration complexity. A small file task may need focused support, while business-critical scripts require someone who can trace dependencies, assess permissions, test safely and document a sustainable operating model.
VBScript work is often suitable for remote collaboration when secure access, test environments and clear ownership are available. On-site work can be useful for restricted networks, local devices or undocumented production routines, while German or English communication should match the project team.
Ask for a clear explanation of dependencies, error handling, logging, permissions and test coverage. High-quality VBScript work includes readable code, safe credential handling, useful documentation and a rollback plan rather than a fix that only works on one workstation.
VBScript may be a maintenance choice when the surrounding application is stable and replacement carries operational risk. A migration becomes more attractive when security requirements, unsupported components, poor observability or frequent changes make continued maintenance costly and difficult to control.
A VBScript assignment often involves investigating inherited scripts, reproducing failures and working with Windows permissions, file shares, databases or Office components. Freelancers should expect incomplete documentation and should establish a test process before changing production automation.
The average hourly rate of freelancers in Germany who have used VBScript in their recent projects is 94 €, which corresponds to a daily rate of about 750 € based on an 8-hour working day.
