Original Content – Application Development (Company Brochure)

It is easy to spot a problem. They tend to rear their head at the most inopportune moments, cause undue stress, and disrupt everyday activities. Sometimes they are small and nothing more than a temporary nuisance. Sometimes they appear larger than life and threaten to topple everything you have worked for. They all have one thing in common; like it or not, they’re going to happen...

Problem Solvers

It is easy to spot a problem. They tend to rear their head at the most inopportune moments, cause undue stress, and disrupt everyday activities. Sometimes they are small and nothing more than a temporary nuisance. Sometimes they appear larger than life and threaten to topple everything you have worked for. They all have one thing in common; like it or not, they’re going to happen.

Unfortunately, we can’t stop problems from occurring completely (as much as we would like to package and sell that) but we can help you to better identify, plan and minimize their impact. With the proper knowledge, strategies and software in place your business can learn to head off many major problems before they occur.

Just as many problems are unique to the organization experiencing them, so are our solutions. It’s true that we can’t solve your scheduling conflicts but we can provide an application that will enable you to. Need a better way to share information between branch offices? We will not only give you a solution, we will offer you multiple options to choose from. Better forecasting, planning, communication, and more, are all problems that don’t have to cost you productivity, clients, revenue, or sleep.

Often the real challenge of eliminating problems is being able to properly identify and plan for them. Our team of dedicated and qualified experts work with you to determine your business needs, identify potential challenges, and recommend appropriate courses of action.

Our Services

You have a job to do and so do we. You need to perform your job to the best of your abilities, with accuracy and efficiency that will benefit your organization. We need to provide the solutions that can make that possible. To help us both get where we need to go we offer the following specialized services:

Custom Software Development

Often developed for specific organizations or to perform dedicated functions, custom software offers many of the same benefits as off-the-shelf solutions with some very important added bonuses. Custom software can be specifically tailored to your organization’s demands and often enjoys a much longer lifespan as new features can be added as needed, rather than waiting for lengthy or non-existent update release schedules. In some cases, the program which meets your organization’s unique requirements doesn’t exist and a custom developed application is the only viable solution. Whatever your organization’s motivation for pursuing a custom solution, we promise to deliver a high-quality application which is dynamic, scalable and, above all, meets your needs.

Examples of some of our custom software development solutions:

  • Enterprise Resource Planning Systems
  • Scheduling Systems
  • Legacy Migration
  • Database Design and Architecture
  • Content Management Systems
  • Information Management Systems
  • Association Management Systems
  • Document Management Systems
  • Workflow and Productivity Systems

Web Solutions

The Internet and web technologies impact the way we do business. Web-based applications can improve the collaborative process and improve efficiency, as well as introduce new opportunities for communication. Dynamic, database-driven web sites have improved customer relations and accessibility, creating true 24-7 service.

From web site development to database design and integration to software as a service models, our innovative offerings are backed by practical experience and ensure that whatever your challenge, a successful solution is always possible. In cases where you already have a web site or application that is not performing to your expectations, our team is ready to step in and make improvements or additions where required.

  • Applets
  • APIs
  • Interface Design
  • Web Databases
  • Custom Web Software
  • Content Management Systems
  • Software as a Service
  • Website Design and Development
  • Mobile Applications

Consultation

As businesses and organizations are increasing their dependency on technology, the ability to understand and purchase the correct software becomes an integral part of business strategy. Having the right partner work with you to develop your strategy leads to quality solutions with a lower total cost of ownership, better project outcomes and a greater understanding of functional requirements.

Utilizing our resources and extensive experience, ANDev will assess your organization’s processes and provide software solutions and recommendations that will mitigate risk, improve business efficiency, and increase ROI.

Examples of some of our consultation services:

  • Strategy Development
  • Technology / Framework Review
  • Project Requirements Definition and Design

Outsourcing

As such, more and more are turning to outsourcing as a valid alternative to traditional staffing models. Outsourcing brings many benefits including lower man-hour rates, reduced training, faster delivery times, a broader talent pool and many more.

ANDev leverages an extensive team of professionals in Canada and India and combines a North American management presence with offshore cost advantages and resource flexibility. The end result is a low-risk business environment with high-quality, predictable results and competitive pricing.

Examples of some of our outsourcing services:
