DataDyne Group came to Pikesoft with a problem: how to enable
international health workers to monitor the health and health care systems
of people in the developing world. They needed the accuracy of digital data
collection but in places that often lacked electrical power. Laptops wouldn't cut it.
The long battery life, portability and ruggedness of handheld computers were
required. Pikesoft was selected to provide a cross-platform (Palm and
PocketPC) software solution. EpiSurveyor won the Wall Street Journal's 2009
Technology Innovation award for Healthcare IT.
The Pampered Chef, a $700M direct sales success
story came to Pikesoft for our expertise with client-side Java, the Eclipse Rich Client Platform and
synchronized personal information management solutions. We joined a team of seven other developers in
a highly agile development process that shipped a 2.2 million lines-of-code project on time and
within budget.
Environmental Chemical Corporation required a way to direct
and track the work of teams tasked with disposing unexploded ordnance
in battle zones. Paper forms introduced the possibility for too many
errors in work where errors could be terribly costly. Pikesoft developed
UXO Logger, a Palm OS application that assigns teams their work orders
and seamlessly syncs critical data back to a central database.
Academex Digital Publishing, a creator of interpretive audio programs,
wondered whether their high-quality audio content could be delivered from a PDA
and triggered by proximity to a point of interest using GPS. We provided the
solution and their GPS-powered audio tours are becoming a reality.
