Projects
- CODESIGN2 CORE PlatformSince the start of this business in 2012 I had always setup a base-platform for bespoke projects, when not modifying an existing system. This allowed me to make informed decisions, and representations about SDLC that mitigate risks, and speed up development, by catering to software problems encountered in my previous 10 years of development. This allowed me to build most components for this platform, so that I could offer things such as PDF and word-document mail-merge within tight-budgets, on an open-source stack. This is really an ongoing project, but as the automated error-checking ceased to receive any bug reports in 2014 I believe it represents an extremely polished example of an application in it's nth iteration. This CORE is used across multiple industries, and since 2014 has been available as a managed SaaS solution for SMB's requiring results with short time-frames, heavy work-flow customization; and tight budgets. It has been used within heavily regulated industries including legal, medical, lead generation, account management, automotive, and compliance, as well as for a specialists in translations & rehabilitation industries
