The team at Mill House has many years experience building bespoke systems in a variety of industries. On the one hand we have enhanced the efficiency of small businesses such as Florists, Plumbers, Swimming Clubs and Restaurants, to name but a few, enabling significant cost savings in administration, marketing and host of other business areas At the opposite end of the scale we have successfully designed and constructed professional grade ledger systems for insurance companies administering complex insurance pool arrangements.
Our applications are designed to our clients exact requirements and all utilise MS Access for a user friendly interface. MS Access is capable of hosting multiple simultaneous users and up to 2 gigabytes of data which in our experience is more than sufficient for most businesses. This presents an extremely economic option as the only user licenses required are that of the basic Microsoft user license that comes with the product.
All our systems support user level encryption and are fully interactive with all other MS Office applications creating a truly efficient working environment.
For larger companies where tables containing 100k+ records are commonplace we will utilise SQL Server to host the database with MS Access again providing the interface.
Either way, we can offer business of all sizes an affordable alternative to the often prohibitive costs involved in employing large software houses.
Inevitably, businesses grow, diversify and develop and often outgrow their systems. The team at Mill House has worked with all kinds of companies over the years and our experience can help you upgrade your existing systems to meet the demands of your business. Bolting on additional functionality can save you valuable time and money. Whether you require a new report, mail merge function, media fields added or any other requirement, Mill House has the experience to help you achieve this.
Is your existing system running slow? We can review it and advise you on your options. It may be that it merely needs optimising or the volumes may have outgrown your systems capabilities. Either way, we can offer advice and support and if desired, undertake any work that is required to resolve it.
In our experience, many legacy systems lose data integrity through a lack of controls in the basic programming. Mill House has extensive experience in Data Cleansing and have undertaken the cleansing of literally millions of records in a controlled and methodical manner. Our methods will generally involve the use of a bespoke system that is designed to ensure data integrity whilst the job is undertaken. The data can then be returned, again in a controlled environment, to the owner in a ready state for analysis.
Do you currently use MS Excel to analyse data? Is your task outgrowing Excel? We can build analysis systems that will make extremely light work of it!
Many companies have archive facilities going back many years that have been recorded manually. All too often these facilities become disorganised and finding what you need becomes a drawn out process often without success. We are specialists in the organisation of company archives through a bespoke search database and scanning service. Imagine being able to search your archives at the touch of a few buttons and print the document you are looking for in minutes! This can be reality!
