Customized Database Solutions
We have developed numerous custom database applications to simplify and enhance the operations of our clients.
Frequently, we find that our client's staff has found a need and developed one or more rudimentary database or spreadsheets to support a portion of their operations. Then, recognizing the advantages of a fuller implementation, they turn to us with specifications for the enhancement and enrichment of the functionality. If the specifications contain ambiguity or incomplete areas regarding the requirements, our analysts will interview the intended users in order to capture a full use-case set of statements defining all of the functional needs.
“I find that a great part of the information I have was acquired by looking up something and finding something else on the way”
- Franklin P. Adams (1881 - 1960), American journalist
Once we fully understand the requirements, we then establish budget guidelines for phased development. If the costs for a full development exceed the immediate financing support available, we can frequently help the users to scale back immediate needs to establish a workable balance between improved functions or reliability and available resources.
Often, considerable improvements in operating efficiencies are achievable from very simple enhancements to existing methods. Altering a frequently rebuilt spreadsheet by enabling direct reporting connectivity to the source data can save many hours of labor per refresh and ultimately provide significant returns in efficiency, reliability and return of investment (ROI). Gathering a group of desktop database applications built by user groups of various departments and building them into a server-based robust database with fully integrated data and functionality can save extensive hours on a regular basis and, of course, eliminate inaccuracies and frustrations.
