Database-Driven Intranet Application for Case Management
Los Angeles, Calif. -- AMULET Development Corp. is pleased to announce its selection
by the Community Action Partnership (CAP) for custom Web development services in
support of the non-profit organization’s services for economically and socially
disadvantaged. The organization contracted with AMULET to build the new Intake Database
intranet software application where a distributed group of staff members may enter
and track case information – household demographics, service referrals, income detail,
energy assistance, and case notes. The software will include custom database design,
Web data entry forms, database queries, and reports designed to streamline and improve
the efficiency of the case management process. The new database application will
be designed to save costs associated with staff resources while increasing efficiency
and accuracy for this important functional area within the organization.
Incorporated in 1966 as a private, non-profit organization, CAP serves the economically
and socially disadvantaged by responding to their specific needs, enabling them
to become self-sufficient and to reach their full potential through individual,
social, economic, and educational development. CAP is located in Lewiston, Idaho
with their website found at: www.acommunityactionpartnership.org.
AMULET’S Development Services
AMULET plans to redevelop CAP’s current Microsoft Access-based application to build
the new Intake Database application. Technologies upon which the application shall
be based include Microsoft Windows 2000 Server, the IIS Web Server platform, the
Active Server Pages (ASP) programming environment, in conjunction with the SQL Server
2000 relational database management software. The main goal of the project is to
provide a scalable application that can parallel the organization’s growth. The
multi-user Web application shall operate on a shared server platform hosted with
XO Communications, Inc. (OTCBB:XOXOQ), and will be securely available to the various
remote locations of the CAP organization.
A Word from AMULET’S CEO
“We’re very pleased to receive the project award from CAP because their technical
requirements match our expertise with building quality intranet solutions very well,”
says Dan D. Gutierrez, AMULET’s CEO. “The organization had been struggling with
a low-end desktop database solution for some time, with up to 10 local LAN users
and 22 remote users over a Windows Terminal Services connection. The equivalent
Webtop application will provide much better scalability and ease-of-access that
CAP needs.”
