About Us

 

Custom modules are pre-existing functional blocks that we use as needed to develop databases. They avoid having to "re-invent the wheel", and allow your project to develop faster with less expense. We can also link all modules together.  Here is a sampling of database modules that we use:

 

  • Client data management

  • Inventory database design

  • Inventory tracking systems

  • Access to remotely-hosted database via web browser (without FileMaker installed on the local computer)

  • Customer relationship management (CRM)

  • Customer web login systems 

  • Invoicing systems

  • Job tracking programs

  • Marketing, order entry, purchasing, workflow management and accounting

Speaker booking agency 

This booking agency needed a CRM (Customer Relationship Management) system that included a special system to track speaker bookings. Off-the-shelf software did not have the necessary features. A custom database made the job easy.

Importing business

This company needed to closely monitor overseas shipments in order to maintain adequate inventory on hand in the US. The program also included a CRM (Customer Relationship Management)  system linked to invoices so that salesmen could follow up immediately after a shipment was sent to a customer. 

Sales lead generation and tracking 

FM Associates' sales lead generation systems are capable of generating thousands of leads per month. This program was specifically designed to import thousands of sales leads, analyze them using a custom-developed algorithm, automatically categorize leads into proper pre-defined territories, and make them available for sales follow up. 

Creating special reports

Custom reports are a major advantage of custom databases. In this example, a school administrator needed a visual graph showing the maximum number of children in their childcare facility during each time segment of each day during a date range. The administrator can regenerate the report for any desired date range. This information helps the school determine staffing requirements. 

Finding and eliminating duplicates

Databases are ideally suited to dealing with large quantities of information. This program simply and quickly eliminates duplicate values from hundreds of thousands of telephone numbers. 

Stock trading platform

This program emulates the look and feel of a real trading software system, but doesn't use real money. The simulation is so real that the trader can develop the skills necessary to trade without risking real money. It in includes special features to analyze the trader's performance, error types and rates, and decision trend analysis. 

Customer Relationship Management (CRM)

Existing modules like this CRM module are very common and make database development faster and less expensive
