"Here's how I increased profits by focusing on customers and products"
Start with the database
"Our customer database was key to the whole process. Without easily accessible data it would have been much harder to identify our most profitable customers and courses. We already had an extensive database, but we improved it by updating and cleaning all records so we could generate a variety of management reports. This gave us, at the touch of a button, the information we needed about our customers, by individual trainer, contract and location. Keeping the information up to date was also essential, so we put in place clear maintenance and updating procedures for all staff."
...
Consult employees "Our employees have played a big role in improving the quality of our database and management information system. In retrospect, we should have involved our colleagues even earlier in the change process. After all, they're the ones using the databases and management systems, so they're in the best position to say how it can be improved. A thorough consultation process would have helped us get our systems up to scratch quicker."

Pipeline - ALPHA Environtmental

We have been developing Pipeline for ALPHA Environmental since April 2008. It is the first in a new breed of Information Management Systems produced by Richard Taylor Associates and has been developed from the start to meet all of the data requirements of ALPHA Environmental and their customers.

The system is written in ASP.NET and connects to a Microsoft SQLServer Database. It uses CSS for layout and styling as well as javascript and AJAX-based real-time screen data refresh.

The system was the first to have been developed using our "Security, Simplicity and Usability Model" that we follow meticulously to ensure that the system not only meets its requirements using minimal re-usable code modules, but also meets all of the security requirements of a large-scale database system.

In addition to system development, Richard Taylor Associates provides support and maintenance of the system.

Pulse - Good Morning Network / Good Morning Ballycastle

We have developed an Information Management System called "Pulse" for Good Morning Ballycastle to provide an interactive and very user-friendly interface for all of the data requirements of the staff and volunteers.

The system is written in ASP.NET and connects to a Microsoft SQLServer Database. It uses 100% CSS layout and styling as well as javascript and AJAX.

The system was also developed using our "Security, Simplicity and Usability Model" and resulted in a 40% reduction in development and implementation time compared to projects that do not use this model.

We are providing support and full staff training for the Pulse system.
