Project Team

Work:SPACE was begun in 2014 by a group of friends that met in an academic atmosphere. They found a kinship in their passion for programming and database design. Since its creation, the main goal at Work:SPACE has been providing personnel systems that are reliable, secure, accurate, and easy to use. We strive to increase business productivity through our user friendly systems and their design.

Mission Statement

Global Corp. has a deprecated system that needs upgrading for the following reasons: The current system is difficult to navigate for users thus

causing a loss in productivity resulting in wasted employee hours.

There is currently no way for convenient communication between managers, administrators, and employees.

The current system has a lack of security between users.

The Problem

Our recommendation for Global Corp. is to take action in upgrading their current system with ours as soon as possible. Global Corp is at risk of fraud and loss of data with their current system.

Work:SPACE will increase security, efficiency, accuracy, and reliability. All with a simple and easy to use user interface.

The Solution

Languages used:

C#, ASP.net, and HTMLWhy?

Easy to customize to client needs System is web based

Platform: Windows 8

Database generation used: MicroSoft SQL Server Compact 3.5 for .NET Framework

We chose this database because it was well suited for this project. We only needed a small amount of storage space to demonstrate the system operation.

Lessons Learned

Problems encountered while building the system: Connecting the database to visual studios Compatibility issues

How were the problems solved? Tried using SQL Lite Tried using MySQL Finally moved on to MySQL Compact database

What worked well Building a compact database within Visual Studios 2008

What we highly recommend Make sure you use appropriate hardware to meet the system requirements

Where do we go from here?

Add labor forecast to determine how many employees will be needed for each shift.

Multiple banner support to allow users to view other businesses within the company.

Take over the world!
