Bespoke Application
Programming
Often thought
to be very expensive and reserved for larger business, Bespoke
Applications are often not considered. In many cases
businesses use poorly designed spreadsheets with poorly written
macros or a Access database written by someone who has simply
read a easy guide book. Both of these scenarios often
result in many problems for the business in terms of cost of
personal to errors leading to miscalculations or poor service to
the customer. A bespoke application does not cost as
much as you would think and designed in conjunction with process
engineering can stream line you business reducing your overheads
and increasing you gross margin.
We have
countless times, during spreadsheet audits found serious errors
due to a spreadsheet being shared between a number of users.
Spreadsheets are personal productivity tools and is unwise to
use them as part of a business process especially if they are
shared.
