The client had already made the change from a costly on premise analog PBX to a cloud provider, research was conducted into alternative solutions.  Numerous proprietary and Open Source alternatives were identified that could provide substantial savings.  Ultimately an Open Source solution was selected and implemented which preserved the investment already made in existing desktop appliances.  The net result was a 73% reduction in monthly telephony costs plus full control of their phone system.

In facilities from 2,400 to over 60,000 SF constructed for office  space, factories, and call centers in Florida, Washington, California, Kansas and Texas.  We worked and negotiated with dozens of different vendors and countless landlords to establish the information infrastructure needed for the intended commerce.

Thoughtful design greatly reduces future frustrations.

Our experience spans creating departments from scratch or enhancing existing departmental operations.  We accomplish this through employee selection, evaluation and training; development of departmental process and performance metrics (KPI's), equipment modernization or retirement, network enhancements or redesign, and help desk operations design.  Each department was built to last and deliver exceptional support.

We have conducted the demographic research, employment pool analysis, real estate market analysis, Economic Development incentive assessments and personal site visits in Florida, Texas, Kansas, Washington and California.  Consequently we actively negotiated consequent leasing and build-out contracts with landlords, owners, General contractors and electrical (low voltage) contractors.

Good landlords are hard to find, great landlords are made with contracts.

Managing a Team of 4 software developers, an application was designed and built which interfaced with diverse manufacturing and test equipment to gather and store data in a centralized database which was accessible with a GUI interface facilitating real time visibility into factory operations.    

The power of accurate data was manifested with millions saved in reduced inventory, increased profits from reduced manufacturing time and enhanced reliability with component tracking.
