To compete in today's business environment, your company strives to provide its' products and services in the most accurate and efficient way possible. On top of that, you are likely trying to do things that your competitors are not. This is what sets you apart, what makes your customers want to do business with you. Unfortunately, this is also why most off-the-shelf software ultimately falls short of meeting your specialized needs.

A custom software solution is often what's needed to allow your business machine to run at full capacity. Our prowess is exactly that - designing and developing custom software solutions for business.

Our Staff
Our staff of senior level engineers and partners are experienced experts in all aspects of software development. We feel we have a cohesive mix of skills; while each member has his or her own specialties, we all have years of experience in building business software. Furthermore, every member of our team is degreed in either Computer Science or Engineering, and in some cases both.

Our Skills
We offer a broad range of skills that apply to all business software solutions. We can create any application type, from high level productivity programs to low level automation servers. Some examples of the types of applications we commonly build are as follows:

• Web applications that allow your staff to access vital information while away from the office, or your customers to access your product lines easily,
• Client/Server applications that offer superior performance and integration into your workflow,
• Server/Service applications that feed information to other systems either in your own business, or those in your partners or customers businesses,
• Data mining and reporting applications that allow you to safely store valuable data in format that can be researched, viewed, reported, summarized, etc.,
• Barcode and scanning applications that allow you to track products as they move through their life-cycle.

While all business systems perform specific tasks that are very tightly integrated with unique business processes, they often share common patterns as well. For example, most systems involve the storage of valuable data. Most systems involve a combination of easy-to-use data entry and retrieval interfaces mixed with complex underlying programs that perform important calculations and rule-based decisions. Over the years, we have amassed a large library of proven code and tools to do many of these basic tasks. By leveraging our past experiences and existing building blocks, we have a huge head start from which to build your custom solution. This means lower cost, proven underlying technology, and shorter development times. 

Our Approach
We approach all projects with your needs as the central theme. By spending the time up-front learning your business flow, we can architect a system that integrates into your day-to-day operation perfectly. We thoroughly understand the full software development cycle, and apply it in a phased approach, as follows:

• First, we spend time to understand your unique business, its workflow, its' inputs, outputs, and parameters, and the problems it faces.
• Next we work with your users and managers to design a solution that meets the needs while remains easy to understand and maintain.
• Next, we begin to develop the software. During this phase, we believe its important to stay in constant contact with your managers and users and give demos of the software in progress so as never to get off track, and to quickly distinguish any potential problems and incorporate their solutions early on.
• Next, when the software is finished, meets your needs, and performs as designed, we integrate it into your business by installing and configuring all pieces.
• Next, we train your users and managers on the whole system, and spend extra time with key designees so that you'll have personnel who understand the system in-depth.
• And finally, we can provide support and enhancement to the system when needed. We feel that something as powerful (and sometimes complex) as your business system deserves the attention and support of the original developers.

While this approach is somewhat standard in the software development community, we provide it with our own optimizations, consistency, and care, which we feel are second to none.

All business operate on a fundamental principal: materials and information go in one side, and products and services come out the other. Your business is a machine; let a custom software solution allow it run its best.

Software for Software Companies
If you are a software or business solutions provider yourself, we can help you too. We can play a key role in shortening the time-to-market on your new products by assisting in any phase of product development, or add new insight and expertise to your existing products. Or, if you're merely under the gun to deliver a critical solution, allow us to augment your development staff at any stage in the cycle.
