Application Development

Westedge personnel have built and maintained hundreds of computer applications over their careers, including mainframe, client-server, web and PC based software.

Tried and true methodologies are employed for the gathering of requirements, the development and testing, quality assurance review, and moving on through to production implementation and on-going support and maintenance... the full system life cycle.

We have worked with Oracle, IBM DB2, Microsoft SQL Server and MySQL databases. We have adapted applications for EDI and have provided custom-programmed interfaces to create an application "environment".

We have developed applications for a variety of industries (manufacturing, insurance, associations, professional services) and for numerous business areas, like Human Resources, Sales, Marketing, Finance, and Legal.
