Problems we know how to solve

A late data run, a process held together by spreadsheets, a system the next engineer has to understand. These examples draw on projects our founder, Joseph Foster, delivered in engineering and contract roles over his career.

SQL Server and SSIS

Cut a critical data run to under two hours

A healthcare team was bringing datasets together ahead of a cloud migration. One SQL Server process took more than 16 hours. Tuning the SQL behind the integration brought the same run below two hours and reduced its storage footprint.

Utility operations

Replace a collection of spreadsheets

Utility staff kept operational records in several Excel workbooks. Working sessions with the people who used them shaped an ASP.NET application backed by a normalized SQL Server database. Staff tried the application as it developed and helped refine how it handled their work.

Laboratory records

Import laboratory data that could face scrutiny

Laboratory records could become part of litigation. The work included building data imports under strict requirements and developing laboratory information systems governed by ASTM standards and the lab’s own procedures.

Production systems

Support the software behind a fabrication floor

Production staff and local contractors relied on SyteLine and the tools around it. The work included maintaining the databases, developing .NET tools that handled fabrication data, and documenting the systems for the people supporting them.
