Comprehensive
Reporting System
Problem:
The demand for operational, administrative, and analytical
reports exceeded the capacity of software developer's programming
staff.

support over 130 Ad Hoc reports with no custom programming
at all. Developed a handful of custom reports, data entry
forms and batch processes for special tasks.
Benefits:
Satisfied end-users and a very relieved programming staff.
Sales
Forecasting System
Problem:
No automated means of forecasting sales. Unable to integrate
3rd party market data for analysis. Wasting time and money
due to inappropriate staffing and inventory levels.
Solution:
Integrated mainframe data and 3rd party market data to quickly
and easily create sales forecasts with historical tracking.
Benefits:
Time and money saved through better production planning.
Custom
Accounting System

Created a flexible accounting system tailored to the business'
needs, including A/R, A/P, payroll, commissions processing,
etc.

from hours per month to minutes per month with minimal user
training.
Hospital
Reporting System

reports were created with no programming using data from
the existing system. Users can create new reports and filters
as required.

Critical information is provided to decision-makers
with minimal training and no programming, saving tens of
thousands of dollars.
