GINCI offers expert database design and maintenance services. Our programmers analyze your company's operations and create software customized to your business. The resulting software maximizes staff efficiency and provides an efficient system to meet your specific needs.

We are experts in database design and database programming using client-server technology. Microsoft SQL Server and Oracle databases are capable of handling literally trillions of pieces of information about your business and its environment and delivering analyses of them at lightning-like speed at roughly the cost of a new TV set. We know how to exchange information to and from the internet using that database technology, and present that information extremely well-packaged, tailored, and focused to management, of clients, or vendors.

Managing database projects is one of our major strengths.

• Planning

• Data-Modeling

• Interface Design

• Web and Client-Server

• Workflow and User Analysis

• Capacity Strategy

• Implementation

• Migration of Legacy Systems and Data

• Post-Implementation Review

During that time, we have been an integral part of development of the technology that has revolutionized the information business. Our databases have been used to support a broad cross-section of business applications:

• e-Business

• Client Relationship Management (CRM)

• Sales and Marketing

• Accounting and Budgeting

• Modeling and Forecasting

• Finance and Markets

• Quality Control

• Messaging

Technological Diversity
We believe that it is important to fit the tool to the job, and have managed projects using mainframe databases, such as DB2, and RDB, and database managers such as SQL Server, MySQL, Informix, Oracle, FoxPro, and Microsoft Access. But, whatever the project involves, be it a single stand-alone desktop application, or one with complex multi-tiered client-server architecture, or an Internet based e-commerce site, we guarantee a robust, secure, carefully planned, and well-designed product.

Requirements Analysis
The initial phase of database design is a thorough assessment of your company's processes pertaining to database needs. Based upon our findings, we prepare a report summarizing your objectives and the best ways to accomplish these tasks through a database system.

Specification Design
Building upon the results of the process analysis, we proceed to prepare a functional specification. This specification is a blueprint of your database, detailing precise objectives, design specifications, and the data structures needed to accomplish them.

Programming
Following approval of the specification design, our staff begins programming the new system. At key points along the development cycle, we meet with your staff to receive the system and to test its progress.

Implementation
Upon Completion of system programming, we engage in a limited implementation of the system. During this phase, selected users test the new system alongside current systems provide to provide feedback. User reaction to the new system is examined and the programs are modified to incorporate their responses.

Upon completion of the preliminary implementation, we engage in the rollout of the system to the entire company. This process includes installation of the necessary software on each computer, and detailed training for employees on the use of the new system.

Maintenance
Following the installation of the new system, we provide ongoing support for its use. Our staff is also available for upgrades and changes to the system as your company's needs change or as new technology becomes available.

• Install and support both Microsoft (SQL 7/2000/2003) products on high-availability clusters.

• Data mart and data warehouse design.
