Helpful case studies give readers a feel for how properly specified, strategically customized software can produce real competitive advantages and efficiency improvements, Mintec Systems reports

Melbourne, VIC -- (SBWIRE) -- 12/17/2014 -- Mintec Systems, one of Australia's leading custom software development firms, announced the publication of a number of new case studies on the company's website. Taken together, the studies give valuable insights into how custom-made software can benefit businesses and organizations by fitting more closely to their needs than off-the-shelf alternatives. Founded in 1979, Mintec Systems offers a wide range of information technology and software development services that can help clients cut costs and raise their levels of organizational effectiveness.

"Understanding just when to look beyond the readily available software solutions is something that takes experience and a special kind of insight," Mintec Systems representative Mike Pratt said, "The newly published case studies on our website give some real-world perspectives on how powerful and transformative custom software can be when it is the result of smart, strategic thinking."

Subject to the pressures of software-company sales teams and the status quo in their industries, the leaders of many companies can come to feel as though off-the-shelf software of various sorts is their only option when it comes to filling crucial business needs. In fact, however, many enterprises of all scales benefit enormously from having custom-specified software built for them, as these tools can more effectively satisfy their requirements and processes than one-size-fits-all alternatives possibly could.

Mintec Systems is one of Australia's leaders at providing such solutions. Over the course of the company's several decades in business, it has developed bespoke software packages for a wide range of clients, from a safety-critical emergency services system for the Metropolitan Fire Brigade of Melbourne to a powerful, flexible premium management package for a specialized insurer.

In every such case, Mintec Systems has first sought to understand the particular client's real underlying needs, as these insights are what allow for the development of custom software systems that will confer competitive advantages when they go into production. In some cases, this might mean developing an entirely new system from the ground up, while in others existing software packages could be productively tied together through the creation of a custom software system of more modest scale.

The newly published case studies on the Mintec Systems website are meant to help site visitors develop a feeling for when custom software services might make a difference for their own organizations. By putting the stories of clients from a wide range of industries on display, the case studies expose just how powerful a tool custom software can be for those who make good use of it. Those who are interested in what Mintec Systems may have to offer to them in terms of custom software or other IT services can also easily schedule free consultations on the website.

Mintec.com.au announces Bespoke Software tailor-made for the unique needs of companies all over Australia.

Melbourne, VIC -- (SBWIRE) -- 11/17/2014 -- Writing for the technology website "TrackVia.com" Vice President of Marketing Charles Var discusses "The Top Five Advantages Of Custom Business Applications." Charles Var explains, "Businesses should always investigate the advantages of custom-made software for their all company needs. As every industry and line of work has individual requirements, each corporate group can benefit from a personalized approach to their software. While packaged software can handle typical situations, it is mass produced and not designed to handle scenarios that may be a part of your daily workload."

Mr. Var continues, "With the advent of custom software development, applications can be designed with features that are specific to a companies' resources and built with your ultimate profitability in mind. Developed directly for your employee base, additional features will be created or modified to benefit certain departments. Software interfaces can be developed so the cost of employee training is minimal wherever possible."

Charles Var wants his readers to understand why this is so important. "The development of customized software applications means enhanced security protection. Your software processes are private and not available for use for others in the commercial marketplace. With this in place, other corporate entities can not gain insider information or delve into your most confidential business practices."

Meeting the need for custom-made software for the business world is Mintec Systems. Company spokesperson Tim Matterson describes their mission, "We see ourselves as a company dedicated to business software development and software packages specifically customized for our clients. Just as your business is unique in its own way, your software should be tailor-made to function as you desire. We have the ability to make sure your new software not only functions well, but works with you so your business can excel."

Tim wants everyone to know about their exclusive "Bespoke" software. He says, "The actual word bespoke is a term used by tailors to describe garments sewn to fit an individual. The term invoked images of high craftsmanship, as these clothes were usually quite luxurious. At Mintec Systems we use this word to describe our software packages. Like a coat made to order by a skilled tailor, our software is tailored to fit every curve of your company. Our software is personalized to meet the exact needs of your business, instead of your employees having to adapt to existing software. Once designed to fit your business, this software package is uniquely yours and not available to anyone else."

Tim Matterson wants potential clients to know that Mintec Systems stands behind every software package they create. "We are a full service software development company. Our application analysts and architects will work closely with a client to make sure we completely understand their business goals and company requirements. Our staff undertakes projects on the basis of time and materials or for a an affordable fixed quote. As a software development company, we can also provide you with additional staff members to meet your technical needs for any length of time. Whether it is an entire team or one individual, we offer support that meets the highest levels of excellence."

Melbourne, VIC -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/11/2014 -- Companies often fail to reach business objectives due to inefficient systems or a lack of systems integration. When one goes to select software to minimize these issues in the workplace, often they find the software doesn't meet their needs for one or more reasons. "Mintec Systems offers bespoke software designed to help with systems integration and improve productivity, and each program created offers ingenious solutions for challenging problems," Mike Pratt of Mintec Systems declares.

Bespoke software works to improve customer loyalty and response times while allowing a company to become more competitive. Processes tend to be streamlined when this option is selected, and companies save money as they gain efficiency. "Mintec strives to ensure systems integration as matching existing ways of operation with the necessary software benefits the company in many ways," Pratt continues.

Information comes into a business from many sources. Ensuring all sources remain up to date requires constant monitoring and, information typically must be entered into the system more than once, which leads to a decrease in productivity. "Mintec integrates the various sources of information into one system to ensure all parts works together. Integration depends on the company being assisted and may include integration of twitter feeds, accounting systems, customer relationship management systems and web pages," Pratt explains.

To ensure the needs of customers are met at all times, Mintec Systems provides project development services, contract programming and consulting services as clients have different needs. When one chooses to make use of the project development services, Mintec helps with embedded systems, Oracle, Microsoft Access and more, taking the client's objectives, project goals and imperatives into account.

Consulting services vary greatly, and the client retains the option of selecting which services his or her company needs. Some opt to make use of Mintec for data migration and/or warehousing while others find they work with Mintec for database design, robotic systems and tender writing. According to Pratt, Mintec strives to provide those services most needed by businesses so a company only has to work with one provider rather than many. This increases productivity for all parties involved.

Contract programming remains another option available to clients. Staff may be retained for both short and long term contracts. Whole teams may be provided and rates continue to be reasonable. "Don't hesitate to ask Mintec Systems for help with a business problem as staff members are standing by, ready to be of help to anyone in need of help in one or more of these areas," Pratt expounds.
