Rapid Website Development with jQuery and ColdFusion
application development

  1. The ChemPlan project started out in 2002 as an Access application. I developed the application from the ground up. It was designed to track insurance quotes, policies, claims and loss control. In 2007 the process of converting this system to a web based application began. ColdFusion was used in the development along with Microsoft SQL Server. The application now included an elaborate Quoting system, with programmed checks and balances to ensure that all required data and documentation was present, including low-level document management and a calendar based communication system. The project was code named FRED!

  3. When I started working for Siemens Water Technologies in 2005, they had an existing business application which they used to monitor hundreds of sewer treatment sites across the country. The application was developed in ColdFusion and Fusebox using Microsoft SQL Server. I began by optimizing the SQL Database and queries and was able to significantly increase response times. I have been the sole support for the application ever since. I have developed many complex applications for them including a chemical delivery calendar which schedules deliveries to sites that are low on chemicals, sophisticated site survey programs, a technician scheduler, and implemented a new layer of security, allowing management to control user access to senstive functions and reports.

  6. In 2007 ASAP Rentals in Sarasota, Florida, had a point-of-sale system that did not include a way to automate price book updates. The formats of the files coming in from over a dozen different vendors were not compatible with the price book update function in the software. For years ASAP tried to manually manipulate the files in order to get them to import, but were constantly behind in price updates in the system which cost them thousands of dollars in lost revenue. I developed a custom conversion program in Microsoft Access which would output price files that were compatible with the point-of-sale import program. Each vendor had a unique format, so separate routines had to be written for each. This application is still in use.

  8. Tropiflora was operating their business on an application developed in Basic when I stepped to help in 2009. I was able to salvage most of their data from this crippled application and import it into a Microsoft SQL Server database. An order processing application was developed which is currently being used to operate their 6 acre nursery located in Sarasota, Florida. I am currently developing a new e-commerce website which will be fully integrated with the order processing system by way of the shared database and inventory. This new site offers an elaborate shipping and handling algorithm which calculates the cubic space required to ship each order. Accurate shipping and handling was a big concern for the client. The site also features a special program which offers fair distribution of rare plants to customers around the world. The next step in the project is to fully implement inventory control with the use of bar codes and hand-held computers.

  3. Legendary Journeys offers great deals on cruises and cruise tours.Online booking of trips as well as an extensive customer email system have enabled Legendary Journeys to better support their customers and increase sales.

  5. Tropiflora sells Bromeliads, Succulents, Orhics and other rare exotice tropical plants from around the world. To enhance the custom online ordering application, a complex shipping and handling was implemented that calculates actual cubic size of plants shipping, selects the proper boxes from the database and sends data to Intershipper.com for accurate shipping information.
