CADACS is an enterprise-wide data management system that provides for the collection and storage of data. Unlike traditional handheld computer systems, CADACS is flexible and can be customized by the end-user. This revolutionary system provides a means of capturing data in the field, thereby eliminating the time-consuming tasks of transcription and hand calculations. Once data is collected in the field, it is immeditately available for use by all company personnel.

CADACS gives the user unparalleled degree of flexibility in being able to create, modify, and maintain handheld computer applications. Using the unipue concept of "building a hierarchy", users can quickly and easily create a data collection application which is only limited by the user's imagination.

 
 
 
  • Design collection applications with as many as five (5) levels of menus and sub-menus. 
  • Set default values for data collection fields. 
  • Set a minimum and maximum range validation for numeric collection fields. 
  • Define a "selection set" consisting of pre-defined choices for collection fields. 
  • Create user-defined calculations for numeric collection fields.
 
 
 
 

Reduces Paperwork. Data is collected once at the source, eliminating the need for time consuming transcribing and deciphering.

   
 

Permits Timely Access to Data. Once data is collected on a handheld computer, the process of transferring that data to a central database is minimal. Because the data is stored in an ODBC-compliant database, field personnel will be able to review and analyze the data using their favorite spreadsheet, report generator, or database editor.

   
 

Improves Data Quality. Operators "take ownership" of the data they are collecting, which results in improved data integrity. In addition, increased responsibility and accountability for the operators often results in increased job satisfaction.

   
 

Reduces Consultant Dependency. Modifications to the system can be made by company personnel. Adding new collection points, adding new collection fields, and re-ordering collection routes can be accomplished by field personnel at no additional cost.
