Welcome To Applied Programming Solutions Group
The ability to see beyond the field.
In football they say the great players have field awareness. They don't just see the ball or the player in front of them. They know how the play is evolving and how they can use it to their advantage.
To provide effective, intelligent solutions to your company or organization, a programming / design firm needs to be able to see beyond just the current problem. Get stuck focusing on just the problem at hand and you may end up creating more problems down the road. Or you may miss out on creating new opportunities for the client.
Understanding individual problems is not enough. Effective, intelligent, and lasting solutions require the ability to understand not just your current problems, but the needs of you and your customers. Experience doing just that gives APSG the valuable insight to not only solve the problems you have right now, but also to help create new opportunities for the future.
APSG is a database programming and web design firm interested in finding solutions to your challenging and / or unique problems. Your problems are the opportunity for new solutions - and APSG can provide them for you.

Approach
Everything is data. The world is one giant database. At least that's the way it sometimes appears after 10+ years of using database design to solve unique problems. Look around you - your computer, your clothes, the book on your desk. A book with a title, author,
price, ISBN & UPC, and countless other pieces of data - and don't forget all the data inside the book.
But data by itself is boring. Too much of it is overwhelming. What's important is understanding problems and using what you have in order to find solutions that turn data into useful information for you and your customers. And the key to all that is using experience to fully understand not just the needs and problems of your business or organization, but the needs and problems your customers or clients bring to the table as well.
Think about that book again. Then think about at Amazon.com. Beyond merely competing on price, they have mastered the use of data to solve problems for their customers, their suppliers, and themselves. Reviews, recommendations, ratings and other tools don't just sell books - they solve problems for customers and keep them coming back. That is why they've endured long after other web retailers have come and gone.
Somewhere, inside what may seem to be an unmanageable problem, there is a solution waiting to get out. Solutions are why APSG exists. Solutions and the desire not just to solve your current problems, but to use experience and knowledge to build new opportunities for your business or organization.
You're here because you have a problem. APSG provides solutions.

Q & A
Q: Where's your list of acronyms to impress me?
A: The acronym listings (cgi, sql, php, asp, dhtml, css, etcetera) you usually find at web design sites are like a list of tools in a workman's toolbox. To 99% of web design clients, the actual tools don't matter. Results do. If you are in the 1% that require a specific tool, please use the contact form. You'll be told the truth about whether it's an option. But if you have a problem, how well it is fixed is much more important than what is used to fix it.
Q: What's your hourly rate?
A: APSG is in the business of providing solutions, not selling hours. If another firm tells you it will take two months worth of billable hours, and it can be done by APSG for the same amount (or less) in half the time (or less), isn't it better for your web solution to be up and running sooner and avoid the billable hours dance?
Q: How fast can you get my site done?
A: That will depend on the complexity of your problem and current workload. However, if you have an urgent need and it is possible to get the most important features online before the entire job is complete, you will be given that option.
