Custom Technology Solutions Case Study

The Challenge

During the mid 1990's Collins Commercial and Industrial, a real estate agent focused on buying and selling commercial and industrial properties, were manually handling all their property listings, keeping track of current listings in Word documents. This was an inefficient way to store the information, and meant that data regarding transactions was very hard to collate and analyse, and searches through previously held listings were virtually impossible.

Building a solution from ground up requires all the disciplines of the software development lifecycle to ensure that a flexible and robust solution is developed that meets the requirements of staff.

The Solution

Contact Point worked very closely with Collins Commercial & Industrial over a number of years to develop an application that is now used internally and relied upon by in excess of 20 staff on a minute by minute basis.

The application is tailored made for the way that Collins Commercial work, and allows them to retain history on all their listings indefinitely, providing a extremely valuable resource for the business.

Day to day operations of the business are now tremendously more efficient, and they are able to rapidly embrace changes in the industry which now relies much more heavily on the use of email and the internet to communicate.

If you have processes in your organisation that need streamlining, or if you require a particular technology application we look forward to discussing your requirements.
