Below are some interesting success stories demonstrating the capabilities we bring to the table:

Dynamic Pricing Application:
The client was a mid-sized retail chain that wanted to (relatively) more dynamically price items to manage inventory turnover and thus indirectly maximize profit. The key technology challeneges were data loading of transactions information, scaling up and validating client's proprietary pricing model to handle the size, providing analyst friendly interface to help drive the analysis and then generating pricing files for communication with the store. Technology involved was Oracle Database server (v8) and Microsoft ASP/.Net technology on the middle-tier. All user interaction happened through a browser based application.

Marketing Campaign Management:
The client was a large specialized publication house and wanted to make their marketing managers more productive and to monitor the effectiveness of campaigns. One of our principals led the development of this application - right from needs analysis, development and deployment. The overall application was a web-application that integrated with a multi-dimensional OLAP database. Among others, the application helped users create budgets and track costs and response rates and identify target customer lists.

Online Community to help in knowledge building:
Using an auction-like business process, this client wanted to foster knowledge sharing amongst its employees. The solution was a web-application where users could pose questions and other users could offer to answer the questions. The questioner 'pays' for the answer through virtual points that eventually translated into (non-monetary) awards and recognitions.

Web-based business-to-business store:
A medium sized manufacturing client wanted to provide online transaction capabilities to its business customers. We developed a web application that integrated with their inventory management module and order management module of Oracle Applications. We supplemented the inventory module through a web-based catalog so the buyers could get better description of items.
