Challenge

The engineers and machinists of a production plant of a global corporation needed a software program to quickly determine which equipment parts were currently in stock in the plant's supply room. The company was using a popular, packaged Access application to maintain and store its inventory data. Querying for available parts using the over-the-shelf software was too slow, and the IT Manager was looking for innovative solutions using ASP.

Solution

Three tables from a very large database contained the data needed by the engineers and machinists. An ASP application was designed with user-friendly forms to query the data out of the tables by part name, equipment number, catalog number, and/or description information. The queried results were displayed in tables on the browser. The application offered the option of creating a comma-delimited text file of the search results that could be opened and printed using Excel.

Challenge

The managers of the plant of a global corporation sought a software application to serve as a phone directory for all of their employees. The current system of distributing a phone list on paper to all departments was too inefficent, costly, and time consuming. The software program needed to be easy to use and widely accessible.

Solution

The company maintained a corporate intranet, so an ASP solution using the IE browser was chosen. An Access database was designed to contain the phone numbers of all the departments, supervisors, engineers, managers, and office personnel, along with other necessary information. A custom designed search engine for the ASP application was developed, and a simple, friendly user-interface was designed to serve all employees. Only the Secretary for the Plant Manager was given password protected access to update the database. The program was built to the manager's satisfaction.
