New Hampshire Design Patterns
Develop standardized development practices for better coding habits.
Let's take a moment to discuss design patterns and how it relates to proper software development. Have you ever had to do anything more than once? Well, most of us have. In software development this occurs all the time especially in object-oriented software design.
New Hampshire Customers
Some information I know about New Hampshire is I believe the state was admitted or ratified to the United States around or about 'June 21, 1788'. New Hampshire is located around latitude '44' and longitude of '-71.5' and has a population of roughly '1,377,529 million'. If I remember correctly the capital is 'Concord' and the largest city is 'Manchester'.
Whether one is designing interfaces or coding for back-end databases. Design patterns is simply the practice of determining the need, designing for reusable code for easy inclusion in other solutions one may develop.

Case Study
Let's talk drug manufacturing for a minute and Banner Pharmacaps. Banner hired me to govern all Visual Studio .Net development for migrations from VB.Net to C# as well as all new windows and web development. Banner had me write a capsule seam check application to communicate to a $70,000 OGP microscope to monitor gel cap seams to help eliminate production issues for leakers etc.
Eddie worked with the Banner Validation department to ensure all CGMPs / GxP / GAP Analysis, reporting, GAMP5 and GMP FDA understanding and compliance was met. He even implemented Banners first SDLC document system to assist in proper documentation.
"Eddie was a pleasure to work with. He is very knowledgeable and a very patient professional."

Case Study
USAir needed to ensure Y2K was not impacting their Dividend Miles program. I reviewed Visual Basic code for any Y2K issues as well as ensured communications to the PBX system still would work after Y2k.
"Great work on the PBX Rexx system. Sorry the system, Is so convoluted. You have made the best of it."

"Thank you so much Eddie for the Visual Basic library you donated to the Y2K migration project for USAir. You are a great resource for us and are glad to have you on the team."

Case Study
My start in the food industry started when we wrote software for Nabisco to manage from a marketing perspective how they stacked up to the competition. Critical to this was the ability to monitor competition. I was given the daunting task of writing a system to monitor at the product and geographical level what competitors were doing with existing product and new product.
I delivered CATS (Competitive Activity Tracking System) which allowed Nabisco and Planters & Life Savers divisions to keep abreast of competitor changes in the market place. This competitive advantage was unheard of in the industry. I cannot disclose how competitive information is gathered in the field but the final system, included actual pre-release product images from actual competitor bagged product, competitor price sheets and more.
I also assisted in implementation of IRI Customer Sales syndicated data for in-house processing (savings in excess of $2 million) which the company was utilizing for competitor information as well by loading the IRI data for easy distribution to the entire organization. This data combined with CATS made for a competitive arsenal still unmatched since 1991.
"Great work Eddie! Clearly the whole company is benefiting from your VB expertise and your continuous sharing of routines you have developed through Townhall."

"Thank you for all the functions and subs that you put into the libraries. I've only used a handful so far, but they have saved me a lot of time. They are all easy to use and understand"

"The implementation of the IRI Consumer Sales databases on the MVS machine in Wilkes Barre was a success! All systems GO! Thanks to a tremendous show of effort from our Information Processing Services group, IRI and our dedicated Marketing Systems Team the project has been completed on-time and without any loss of service to users as full access has been maintained through the project. Project savings in excess of $2 million."

"I think Eddie has done a good job on reviewing the present market for this type of software; I wish more developers would put this level of effort into it. Eddie's assertion, confirmed by Ahmed, that native DB-LIB is the fastest access path to SQL Server is absolutely correct."

"Bruce: My main man (Eddie Drye) has been a great help to me down here.... He has some things published in Townhall y'all might be interested in. Yesterday we the entire process up as a PIF and this is the result. I'm putting this one to bed."

If at any point you decide to reach to me just know the area code I work within for New Hampshire is '603'. For Design Patterns assistance you will find my rates very reasonable for New Hampshire. Now just keep in mind my time zone is 'Eastern Standard Time (EST)' and I know the time zones in New Hampshire are 'Eastern Standard Time (EST)' in case you wish to call me. Anyway let me continue.
The Reusable Mindset
Typically it takes seasoned developers to create code in reusable components or methods. I say this because it takes years of software development expertise to understand different industries, cross sections where they may use information for sharing or just basic user interface design commonalities.
You know, I don't make it out to New Hampshire much but I would like to see the 'Purple Finch' state bird. I am a little familiar with the New Hampshire 'Purple lilac' state flower as well. However, I do not know much about New Hampshire's state tree the 'Paper Birch'. Fishing is fun to me perhaps I would like reeling in the New Hampshire 'Brook Trout' state fish. Anyway, sorry I went off topic. Let me continue.
Object-Oriented Approach
With the advent of the web and highly sophisticated software development tools developers today have at their disposal what it takes to seamlessly integrate components and methods across platforms and business need.
This need further extends to SOA (Service Oriented Architecture) where services are written which may be shared across systems for business internal use, customer use or simply as a billable pay as you go service.
Need Assistance?
Ever have an idea about a product or service but lack the ability to develop that idea? Are you looking for a reliable person/firm to build your software? Perhaps you are in need of someone to manage projects and teams?
