The Work Performed
Application Development
Telophase personnel perform analysis; design and code construction based on business requirements and IIE IT standards. We formulated a comprehensive project plan for implementing, deploying and supporting new and existing applications as well as integrating COTS software products. Telophase's most valuable contribution included the development of web-based software for the IIE re-engineering project using Microsoft ASP, Microsoft Visual Basic/COM/DCOM, XML, .NET and SQL DBMS; and providing web integration for IIE in a Microsoft environment using Active X, ODBC etc.
Software Engineering
Telophase initially began by analyzing the needs of the customer. After a comprehensive understanding of the requirements were agreed upon, we initiated the design, development, and testing. Telophase developed and maintained PowerBuilder and ColdFusion applications under a Sybase System 10 DBMS. Currently, our personnel are responsible for future development, maintenance and testing of multiple client-server and web-based applications.
The Results
