Our core technological competencies focus around the Microsoft line of products. The bulk of our work is performed using Visual Basic and SQL Server; Access and other MS Office components (Word, Excel, etc.) are also utilized when the situation warrants it. In terms of information sharing (via the Internet or your intranet), we use Exchange / Outlook as our groupware base, with Internet Information Server (IIS 4.0) and Active Server Pages (ASP) acting as our Internet medium.

Non-MS products in our toolkit include DrumBeat 2.0 for Internet database access, Crystal Reports for database reporting, Oracle for enterprise-level databases, and Robohelp for help-styled applications. Additional work has also been completed using Dynamic HTML, XLM, and various e-commerce protocols.
