We can create a database of any size from scratch that will do exactly what you want it to do.
You explain what you want, we will make it work, and the project will be a success. It's that simple.
Our approach to database development is to keep things as simple as possible. Most of our clients do not want a complicated, confusing "NASA Control Panel" style system. Instead they want a steering wheel, a brake, and a gas pedal to get them where they need to go.
Our strength is in our ability to clarify our client's needs in non-technical terms and then produce a written Project Plan that includes a detailed description of system functionality, a deadline for completion, and a fixed cost for the project.
We prefer to use Microsoft Access and Visual Basic to design the front-end user interface and SQL Server or Oracle for the back-end to store the data and optimize system performance.
We have a great deal of experience from working in many different business environments and industries for over 15 years as a professional database developer. Steve Duff is a Microsoft Certified Expert in Access and has a degree in Computer Science from Cornell University with a concentration in database theory and design.
Below are a few examples of our project plans, database projects, and system documentation so that you may have a better idea of the style, content, and quality of our work.
