"At a time when my internal MIS department had limited resources to design custom applications, Mel moved swiftly into the void, walked us through the design process and created a simple-to-use but sophisticated application. Mel's work is high-quality and stands the tests of time but his true gift is understanding the business requirements of a project and translating them into a viable product that works in the real world."

His bottom line effectiveness is easy to measure in terms of results, and his experience and integrity is evident each step along the way. Without exceeding our budget, he listens closely, communicates effectively, and follows through every single time--at no point (day or night) did I ever worry that a deadline would be missed. I recommend his services, with no reservations."

"Mel was hired by CHS to design, build and implement a complex performance management system for my government client; he met his timelines and the product was outstanding. This project required a great deal of interaction with the client and multiple change requests always at the last minute, Mel worked with client through this tedious process in a very professional manner and was able to meet his timelines. Overall the client was very satisfied with the outcome. I would recommend Mel for this type of work and would outsource to him again if the opportunity arises."
