CEXEC has been supporting organizations for over 30 years.  We know that different organizations, whether federal or commercial, have different business processes, different regulatory requirements, and different mission priorities and goals.  So why is everyone using similar Commerical Off The Shelf (COTS) software?  COTS is supposed to make business processes easier, main stream, and cost effective.  Yet COTS is not tailored to your business or organization, nor is it designed with your specific regulatory or compliance requirements in mind.  When organizations persist in using COTS products to meet specific mission needs the result ends up with mission goals and compliance and regulatory requirements skipped over because the software does not support it, or costly and timely manual processes are adopted to maintain compliance and meet mission goals.  Neither of these two options is desirable, nor should organizations change the way they operate just to fit the software, not when an easier solution is available.

In addition to strategic consulting, program support, business process analysis, and other traditional business activities, CEXEC is at the forefront of developing Web enabled business tools.  We routinely perform Systems Engineering activities such as integration, operations, Database Administration (DBA), systems design, development, implementation and maintenance.

CEXEC software development efforts include Web Enabled Applications using Adobe Dreamweaver CS3, Adobe ColdFusion, Oracle databases, HyperText Markup Language (HTML), .NET, and Java.  We have extensive development, implementation, and maintenance experience with the Adobe Dreamweaver CS3 (with cascading style sheets (CSS), Extensible Stylesheet Language Family (XSL) Transformations (XSLT), Extensible HyperText Markup Language (XHTML)), Adobe ColdFusion, and Oracle database environments to include CSS tools and Ajax components for building dynamic user interfaces.  We incorporate varying methodologies based on customer needs.  These have included rapid prototyping, Joint Applications Development sessions, formal requirements and life-cycle application development.

Some applications developed by CEXEC include eCustodia Records Management Solution, Web Enabled Contract Writing, Contract Opportunities, and Federal Aviation Administration’s Acquisition Management System (AMS).  Our Contract Opportunities software allows our customer (FAA) contracting officers to post opportunities on the internet and automatically alerts interested vendors by e-mails.  The Contract Writing Toolbox generates contracts and maintains the clauses for AMS on-line.  In addition to developing applications, our staff provides operations support managing ASU's application and web servers that host the ASU internet, intranet, web cast and CAD facility, including Webservers and Application Servers.  For the last five years CEXEC has performed Web Content Management System (WCMS) applications development, modernization and enhancement (DME) support for the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (PBGC) pbgc.gov website.

Custom Software Development is designed for you and your business processes, and mission goals.  Custom software does not contain functions that are not useful and not needed, nor does it come with burdensome annual licensing and maintenance fees.  When the total cost of COTS software is compared to the costs of a custom designed solution, custom software is not as expensive as software vendors would have you believe.  And what happens when that COTS provider goes out of business or decides that it is no longer going to support a particular package you have come to rely on?  You are forced through costly upgrades and training, all for something that was not designed with you as its priority.  With custom software designed for and paid for by you, you can get the source code.  And if a provider goes out of business then you can go to another software developer.  As a unique organization with unique needs and requirements, your software should be designed to ensure your organizations technology investment supports your business and not someone else.  If you are ready to make your software work for you, contact CEXEC today.
