What we do!

History

We are a small software development and financial consulting company with several installed products. Phil, the principal officer, is a New York State CPA with an extensive background in lease accounting, finance and taxation. He also has a strong background in computer programming. Microsoft would refer to him as an "occupational programmer". Joan, his wife, is a "professional main-frame programmer" and has over 25 years experience in main-frame and PC software. We offer applications knowledge and programming skills employing Visual Studio, VB for Applications and, Visual Studio.Net, We primarily use EXCEL, ACCESS, and SQL2000 as our database software. These platforms permit development that is quick, scalable, and results- oriented. Applications areas include leasing, personnel, accounting, finance and taxation. We offer hands on consulting help in the areas of taxation and accounting and project design and interfacing.

Our Goals

To support our base of clients, and respond to the needs of companies requiring short term help using our combination of applications knowledge and software skills.

Company Profile

The company was formed in 1983 for the purpose of writing what was intended to be the first lease accounting and analysis system to run on a multi-user micro computer. It is named PAMS for Portfolio Analysis and Management System (c). The product was completed in 1991. Because of the large fallout of hardware manufacturers, the platform PAMS was written on became obsolete. In the face of a need for a complete rewrite, marketing was halted. It has recently been placed back under construction and parts of the system are currently available (see Yield Analysis Engine).

In 1994 we undertook development of the Employee Tracking System for DOS based PC's, and completed that product within one year. In 1998, ETS was redesigned and rewritten in Visual BASIC 6 using ACCESS2K as it's database. It continues in use to this date.

Other less ambitious software packages include a Stable Billing System (Trainer oriented) written in VB for Applications using EXCEL It is available for customizing as an ancillary package to any accounting software.

We recently completed a departmental check request and history system in VB for Applications and EXCEL. The system is in the tax department of a major film manufacturing company. It employs a vendor database, while creating a history of payments used to produce various reports. It has been in use for two years and has proven to be a major contributor to gaining control over property tax activities.

We also service a small group of tax clients directly (primarily in the real estate industry), and have long term corporate consulting relationships in taxation. We manage for our own account some small real estate investments.

That's who we are and what we do.....that's our story and we're sticking to it.
