Introduction
In the normal course of our business we are approached by a wide variety of organisations for an equally wide variety of applications. Some of these enquiries turn into full fledged systems. Others never move beyond the experimental stage, held back by lack of funds or lack of resources. But many of these projects have wider application.
As an example, we recently spent several months developing and refining a system for a major Provincial Client. When the concepts had been proven, and it was time to move ahead, the project was postponed for a year, with funds re-allocated elsewhere. Less than a week later, a client from Western Canada called with a "strange" request, that just happened to coincide with the postponed project. We think this client was impressed with the speed at which we were able to "customise" and deliver a project to his exact needs.
So in this light, we have included in this section of our web site a list of design activities. Some of these have been fully implemented, others were held at the testing stage. So read on, if any of these system may be of use to your organsiation, just let us know. And if you have an interesting design challenge, we would be interested to hear of that too.
And a brief note about the following examples. They are all based on fact, but we have changed a few of the details to protect the privacy of our clients.
