Custom and legacy systems

Many times you need a new special solution. Or depend on one that’s been around for decades, but suffers from platform obsolescence, retiring programmers, and susceptibility to hacking.

In either case, the experts at CHR are here to help.

CHR has experience with a wide range of systems, from inventory management to workforce scheduling.

One client needed a web-based catalog for LCD notebook replacement screens. Built using Microsoft .Net technologies, this application tracks available inventory real-time so Internet users can quickly determine if a replacement is available for their specific laptop display.

Another client needed a customized workforce application that quickly matched available labor to rapidly changing cargo-handling requirements.

While not technically a custom application, the Microsoft Dynamics CRM solution is highly configurable to meet specific user requirements. CHR knows how to implement and fine-tune this powerful application.

There are some great older applications that are teetering on the edge. In fact, our business continuity process often reveals a shocking dependence on an outdated, unsupported application.

Sometimes the best answer is migrating the existing application to a new platform while retaining the original functionality.

We helped a financial services client move its FoxPro-based call center software to the Microsoft .Net platform. A team of 25 programmers worked for four months to migrate 120,000 lines of code with the same look and feel to minimize operator retraining.
