Software Development

We write our software in all of the common programming languages (php, .NET etc), and design our applications to sit on either a Linux or a Microsoft Windows platform.

Our Services in Action
Case Study 1
A high profile client called us to help them meet a deadline. They had created a website for staff training purposes in one language and they needed the website duplicated in other languages. Our IT solution was an application that takes a website and a dictionary and ouputs a website in another language. This application helped the client meet the deadline and is still being used to localize websites.
Case Study 2
An international company had joined forces with an overseas partner and needed an IT specialist to help them bridge their IT differences. We were called in to attend a defining joint meeting to address these IT issues. After understanding the underlying policies and respective needs, we offered a communication protocol that deemed the meeting successful and satisfied both sides.
Case Study 3
A client in the GIS (Geographic Information System) business approached us to create a too for minitoring real-time data collected by instruments on large construction sites. The available commercial tools, while powerful, offer too much sophistication and cost thousands of US$. We devised and implemented a very cost-effective web-based system that uses a freeware php-based graphical library and does just what's required for a portion of the GIS commercial tools' cost.
