Business Solutions - Database Design

Do you need to get your records in order? Telemat can offer a database design service based on Microsoft Access or Microsoft Works.

How does it work?
At no cost, we travel to your location (or you can come to ours) and discuss your problem or desired new capabilities. We also gain an understanding of software requirements (e.g., Access, Works, SQL Server, etc.), required integration with other.

systems, and training and documentation requirements. Database functionality should not exist without being cost-effective (we've seen far too many databases that are complete overkill - the cost to maintain it exceeds the benefit it provides ), so our first goal is to understand what you really need so that we propose the right solution.

1. Proposal
At no cost, we prepare and submit a detailed, fixed-price proposal. The cost is based on our estimate of the hours it will take to build a database solution that will meet your requirements and exceed your expectations. The proposal will essentially include a functional specification of the database design. We are available to answer any questions you have about the proposal and will modify it as necessary to incorporate new information.

2. Scoping Meeting (Optional)
Depending on the complexity of the proposed database solution, we may need to talk again before we actually start designing the database. If the database solution is relatively simple and straightforward, this step might not be necessary. However, we may need more detailed information (e.g., data specifications and validations, interface preferences, reporting requirements, etc.) and we would get that information early in the process.

3. Database Prototype Development
Based on the information from the proposal and the Scoping Meeting, we'll develop a prototype of the database and meet with you again to go over it. The focus here will be on the user interface and the outputs (e.g., reports, downloads, data transfers, etc.). We can also discuss inner workings, such as data structures and programming techniques, if you would like to.

4. Database Completion
Finally, we incorporate the feedback from the prototype meeting and, using appropriate software development techniques such as alpha/beta testing and performance analysis, we complete and deliver the database solution, along with documentation and training as agreed to in the proposal.
