IT/IS

Information Technologies or Information Systems depending on how your company identifies it is a vast and complex area.  Computers, networks, database, applications, programming, project management and client interaction are the high level topics.  Top down programing, SDLC, DB and flat files, CMS, MVS, UNIX, LINUX and Windows operating systems, centralized or decentralized strategies and topics of debate like normalization all help to compound an already complex topic.

To build, purchase or lease, to centralize or decentralize, which platform, what language or which data format, question upon question.  Investments in hardware, software and networks can spin quickly into thousands if not millions of dollars.  Maintenance contracts, raised floors, upgrades and security cannot be ignored.  Conditioned environments, backup power sources and surge suppression are not far behind.

An open architecture allows for creativity and variety, however it compounds support.  A fixed set of standards in hardware and software ensure ease of support through redundancy, but can stifle creativity.  What to do, which way to go?  Questions often include financial limits, long term predictions, mechanical interfaces, operational advantages, data compatibility and on and on.  It often takes a myriad of experts to handle each field, but as the expertise grows the diversity in knowledge with any one individual shrinks.

Generalist with a broad conceptual understanding of all platforms, networks, operating systems and languages is rare.  Depth of understanding is even rarer and more difficult to find are IT experts that also have a deep business acumen.  We are that source.  With years of experience in all aspects of information systems and non-stop training we can cross technology boundaries and help devise ideal solutions that fit your companies needs and ambitions.  We understand what it takes to build new systems, maintain legacy systems and transition from one technology to the next.  We can move you from centralized to decentralized and back and recommend the best strategy.  We know how to port applications, develop programs adapt reusable code, data model, design and mine your collective data sets. 

From simple office automation, to sophisticated real-time executive dash boards or complex mathematical, statistical, economic or financial models we can develop a solution right for you.  WEB based client and server side development, automation, animation and interaction.  Ergonomics and top level graphics design ensure ease of use and appeal.
