Case Studies

Challenge
Create an efficient, streamlined, secure Web-based system to track training and development of troops.

Solution
Visual Concepts designed and developed a Personnel Information System, Training Operations Logistics (PISTOL) system that included not only training and development, but also medical/dental records, security clearances and troop-readiness reports for the Naval Construction Forces. Visual Concepts provided full lifecycle development including project management, system analysis, database design, integration, and data conversion. To accommodate battlefield deployment, PISTOL was designed to support detached networks.

Results

• Eliminated need for duplicate data entry into several different systems
• Increased cost savings by decreasing man-hours needed for system upgrades and maintenance work
• Successfully converted data from several legacy systems into a new efficient system
