The Internet and networked computers within and between enterprises have been a fact of business life for several years now. Yet, software applications, software development methodologies and information exchange models best suited to distributed computing architectures are immature and evolving rapidly.

Businesses need solutions specific to their needs. At the same time, very difficult business conditions have reduced budgets available for information management. This creates a challenge: how to find and implement business-specific solutions without writing huge checks to product companies and integrators. Organizations still need results but must reduce the costs to obtain them. Businesses with less money on their hands now must look seriously at alternatives, such as outsourcing, or using open source applications when possible.

MethodCraft is ready to help customers make these difficult choices. We can help in design and implementation of networked software solutions, using creative combinations of technologies.

Our technical "sweet spot" is Java and J2EE applications, both open source and commercial. Portals, knowledge management, content management, and web services are some of the emerging tools and applications that allow organizations to exploit the power of networked computing. At MethodCraft, we can help your business identify and adapt these technologies to meet your business needs.
