The Girl Scout Council of the Nation's Capital This client, one of the largest Girl Scout councils in the country with a combined girl and adult membership of over 69,000, came to us with a need for web applications that required user authentication, personalization, e-commerce and integration with third-party membership systems. We provided GSCNC with many aspects of software development, technology strategy consulting, as well as project planning and management. We developed several high-traffic, data-driven web applications for them. Additionally, we offered professional graphic design elements that were translated into template-based and style-sheet-based interfaces for applications such as calendars, catalogs and registration capabilities. Designed and created database tables, views and stored procedures using Microsoft SQL Server. Programmed server side ASP code and client side JavaScript code to handle form validation. Provided personalization and membership services. Applications were developed using: Visual Basic, COM, SQL Server, stored procedures, views, Active Server Pages (ASP), HTML, CSS and ADO.

The Food and Drug Administration -- MedSun project The Medical Product Safety Network (MedSun) is a pilot program launched in 2002 by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH). The primary goals for MedSun are to identify, understand and share information about problems with the use of medical devices. MedSun plays an important role in FDA's post-market surveillance effort. PragmatiQ engineers continue to provide ongoing support and maintenance for the MedSun project for the existing code base written in ASP and ASP.NET. The project utilizes a Microsoft SQL Server database backend. We designed and developed new features to the application to meet the ongoing needs of the FDA. We redesign software elements to be more secure and with fewer software defects. We created all the software architectural design and programming for the award winning Device Safety Exchange (DS-X) application. We designed and developed new software elements to allow analysts to search for information using an easy to use interface. We designed a new XML tool that will transform data from the MedSun database into standard XML abiding by the rules of Health Level Seven (HL7), an open standard for interoperability of health care data.
The Air Conditioning Contractors of America The ACCA is a group of over 4,000 air conditioning contractors who work together to improve the air conditioning industry, promote good practices, and keep homes and buildings safe, clean and comfortable. PragmatiQ engineers continue to provide ongoing programming and maintenance services for the ACCA website, which includes the ACCA Store and the "Join ACCA" application. Program was written in PHP and utilizes a MySQL database backend. We designed and developed new features to the application to meet the ongoing needs of ACCA. E-commerce portions of the site were developed using PayPal PayFlow Pro services. In addition to the public website, PragmatiQ programmed the administrative tools necessary to manage the products, members and features of the website.

The American Psychological Association This scientific and professional organization is based in Washington, D.C., with over 155,000 members It is the largest association of psychologists in the world. They needed a survey application in order to provide information and updates on psychological events. We helped develop an online survey system that provides instantaneous and continuously updated information about what is happening in the professional psychology world. PracticeNet involves a unique application of Real Time Behavior Sampling (RTBS) methodology that eliminates biases in other more traditional survey methods. The system is designed to capture specific moments or snapshots of practitioner activity. We are continuing to work with APA to provide ongoing maintenance and technical support to the PracticeNet Survey System, and to develop new features and surveys, as well.
The Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory (JHU-APL) The Applied Physics Laboratory (APL), a division of The Johns Hopkins University, is a not-for-profit research and development organization dedicated to solving a wide range of complex problems that present critical challenges to the nation. Our engineers created software using C and C++ on UNIX and Windows systems to collect data from multiple system devices and then display the status information on screen. Our applications were developed using: C/C++, the Microsoft Foundation Classes (MFC), the WinSock API, the Windows API and system level UNIX and Linux code. |
