Task:
Develop a PDA tool for information transmission between field engineers and the home office.

Solution:
The tool saved engineers’ time while surveying in the field, as well as increasing their flexibility and efficiency.

Main functionality:
The user navigates using a menu button and job complete button.
• The menu button displays the names of the screens.
• The job complete button saves the data for attachment to an email.

The home office fills in various sections on a scrollable form (WIN32 Form) that saves in XML format and is sent by email to the engineer.

The engineer receives an email with the XML form attached; when clicked both the attachment and the program open displaying the job information.

The engineer adds information, saves it and sends it back as an email attachment.

Client: a Moscow sewing factory

Description: A business management system (BMS) that provides all users, executives through factory workers, with real-time data access of applicable company-wide functions.

Special challenges: A very tight budget and a client, with no BMS experience, unable to identify the scope of tasks to include in the project or provide viable project requirements information.

Working closely with all levels of management, NTR developers analyzed all existing business processes, in conjunction with company needs, and wrote the formal specifications for a comprehensive BMS that would

• collect data from all departments in the company (finance, production, warehouse, etc., and all management levels);
• solve remote-access challenges for buildings with no direct connection to the corporate office LAN; and then
• apply the system from executive offices through factories.

The system has worked flawlessly since it went live in 2001.
