Application Development
Our substantial experience in data migration has naturally allowed us to build a competency in the developing applications that work with product information. We use industry standard development tools, and work to seamlessly integrate our programs with your existing infrastucture.
Our applications are written for your specific needs and your specific environment. We don't try to force-fit your requirements into something that we've done for someone else. But that doesn't mean we're expensive. In fact, given our focus on data oriented applications, our use of proven technologies and tools, and our vast experience in specializing in this small segment of our industry, we're able to quickly and inexpensively analyze your needs and implement the proper technology solution.
For example, a few of our recent engagements:
- We developed an electronic catalog for a laboratory products distributor that contains over 100,000 products and associated images on a single CD-ROM. A visually appealing application following the newest Windows design guidelines, the catalog lets users view the items by category, and search by keyword, part number, or even by manufacturer. One click and the item is added to an order form, ready for printing. Combined, our electronic catalogs are in use on a daily basis by over 100,000 users across the nation.
- For a heavy-equipment manufacturer, we developed an application that would automatically validate part-numbers which were based on combinations of user-selectable options. Our application ensured that only valid combinations were ever entered into their order entry system.
- An internet based application we developed for a restaurant supplies distributor, runs every evening unattended to synchronize data from two different databases in separate locations, which in turn updates an on-line product catalog.
- Another application for a table-cloth manufacturer automatically generated over 32,000 possible part-numbers based on the valid combinations of dimensions, materials and colors. By also generating an accurate price for each item and an approprirate description, our application increased productivity and eliminated human-error.
Overall, you will find our application development team focused on your needs, ready to utilize their substantial practical experience in working with product information and collaborative commerce in general. |
