If your business uses computer systems to make money instead of just count it, we are eager to help you make more money with your systems. On a typical engagement, we increase our customers’ bottom line by more than the cost of our services. We like being more of an investment than an expense.

Much of our work is with realtime, near-realtime and transaction processing for applications such as SCADA and SS7 telephony. These are large custom systems demanding 24x7 uptime for purposes that include:

We work primarily on OpenVMS, Windows NT/2000/2003 and UNIX platforms. In addition to working with Microsoft SQL Server, we also work with various proprietary database systems, particularly realtime in-memory databases. For example, we are especially expert with Aspen Technology IP.21, including the 1st Quality extension. Because we specialize in working with large complex systems, we are accustomed to working closely with a customer's team.

Technical services range from analysis through deployment, and include documentation, support and training. For OpenVMS systems, we offer programming services for platform migration. We are known for our troubleshooting and support abilities. We performed the pre-release failure mode analysis for a national SS7 telephone call routing system, from which we built a database that a network operations center uses for diagnosis, repair, and impact assessment when problems arise.

Technical service is only the proverbial tip of the iceberg. Sometimes the best solution is not new or different software. Sometimes it is a combination of improved human workflow and computer systems well fitted to the workflow. We "workshop" with your people to analyse workflow, and start from there. We understand business, not just computers.

We have work experience in various countries in North American and western Europe.
