Mobile Solutions a Consultant's Nightmare

The first time is not always your best. Consultants and integrators get better the 2nd, 3rd and 4th time they have implemented the same mobile solutions. The problem is- nearly every mobility project has unique and different requires.

-different handheld computers
-different add-on hardware accessories
-integration to different backend database applications
-different business logic needed on the mobile application
-different ways of doing the same business
-different screen layouts
-different data requirements
-different synchronization methodologies

How can a consultant or an integrator profitably and successfully implement these mobility projects? The answer - find what is common about all of these projects and productize a solution that can be flexible and powerful enough to be used over and over again to implement mobility projects. All of us involved in consulting know that reusing previously made code, and leveraging your expereince is how you gain the efficiencies that make your projects profitable.

My Engineering team has been studying mobility projects since 2000, and productizing the results of their studies. The result is our PointSync and Intercue Mobility Suite solutions. Both of these platforms allow you to consistently produce high quality solutions on standardized mobility platforms. Once your team is familiar with using these "rapid application development solutions for mobile environments" (RADs-ME), they can rapidly develop, edit and customize mobile solutions for new customers.
