Case Studies --> Manufacturer and
Distributor of Imaging and Night Vision Equipments
Significant corporate web presence and catalog management system
with a foundation towards e-Commerce capabilities.
Our client
www.electrophysics.com is the world's leader in integrated night vision
photography and video systems. They manufacture and distribute advanced
near infrared, night vision and thermal imaging systems for use in
industry, law enforcement and by military customers around the world.
The client has been in business for more than 30 years. However, they
had a pure HTML based static site and were struggling to manage and update
content themselves quickly and efficiently. In addition, they wanted to
have an impressive and significant web presence that would enable them
to
market their products directly through the internet.
Radicle developed a robust and dynamic website for the client.
Through site content administration and a catalog management system,
client's market staff are now able to enter data and images themselves
and publish them immediately. The system architecture also puts in place
a foundation for future E-Commerce capabilities. Technology employed consisted of
Microsoft ASP and SQL server.
Radicle's Global Delivery Model enabled us to provide onshore
service at offshore costs. Our US-based team was responsible for the
Define phase, the high level Technical Design and for ongoing project
management, thereby providing the client team members with ready access
to a local Radicle team for discussions regarding functionality, design
choices, etc. and insulating them from offshore specific issues such as
time differences. At the same time, client benefited from overnight
implementation of many changes.
Increasingly, the web now serves as the main marketing engine for the
client. This improved presence has resulted in a 300% increase in volume
of leads generated. Further, they are
also able to distribute their products information more efficiently and accurately.
The success of this engagement is evidenced by the fact that the
client has chosen Radicle to develop and maintain some of their core
applications using our Global Delivery Model. Applications to be
developed include software to interface and reside in a PDA controlled equipment.
