Concurrent Technologies can help you select the best possible solutions. In many cases, the best and most economical solution is available directly from our Flexible Foundation Software Library, i.e., the full suite of
e-business applications developed by CT. We also have the ability to access and integrate a wide range of commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) solutions. Alternatively, to meet unique needs and provide seamless integration with legacy systems, a custom-designed application developed by CT may be the best option.


The CT Solutions Library
Our Flexible Foundation Software Library of applications developed by CT is frequently used as a programming foundation. Building on this base, CT is able to develop many
e-business solutions on an unusually
cost-effective and timely basis.

The result of this approach is the development of integrated and scalable e-business systems that work efficiently from sales stage through customer billing without incompatible modules, multiple vendors or repetitive fees for reintegration of existing resources.

CT's Flexible Foundation Software Library includes:

 
  • Customer Relationship Management (CRM) Modules·
    · Sales and Field Force Automation
    · Order Processing
    · Workflow Management
    · Customer Care Center Management

  • Performance Measurement and Management Systems

  • Project Management Tools

  • Productivity Management Applications

  • Executive Information Systems
       
 

Design and Development
Concurrent designs and develops Web-based solutions that integrate clients' enterprise processes and embedded systems in a standards-based environment. We produce mission-critical applications, Web-enabled applications and databases, and customized data management systems. We also create commercial Web sites, e-commerce solutions and multi-dimensional reporting and analysis systems.

Approach
Through our use of Rapid Application Development (RAD) techniques, clients receive frequent "early looks" at an application as specifications are translated into deliverables in compressed timeframes. Using quick prototyping, we work closely with clients to avoid expensive and time-consuming post-release rewrites.

A key element in the RAD approach is eXtreme Programming (XP). With XP, programmers quickly develop major features, called "stories", by making preliminary design decisions, collaborating with the client, and learning from the information gained in the initial documentation of the project. The client is closely involved with our technical personnel while stories are created, cycled, tested, and new stories are added in an on-going process.

The RAD approach also makes use of Pair Programming whereby two programmers work side by side throughout the development process. Project continuity is promoted through constant dialogue, simultaneous tactical and strategic efforts, and continuous peer review.

Our development staff has diverse skills, technical certifications, and extensive application development experience using a variety of methodologies. They are adept at using most well known programming languages as well as multiple operating systems, databases and middleware components.

With emphasis on upfront planning and frequent communications with clients, we are able to maintain high productivity levels in the development process, consistent on-schedule delivery in "Internet time" and exceptionally high levels of client satisfaction.
