Coastal Services Center Management Information System (MIS)

CSC Management Information Systems Homepage ThumbnailThe MIS assists CSC allot its fifteen-plus million dollar budget and nearly one hundred employees over scores of projects. This application uses Microsoft SQL Server running on Microsoft Internet Information Server (IIS) and creates a web interface using vbscript-powered Active Server Pages (ASP). Javascript is used to ensure data entry meets specific criteria, and server-side processing rechecks before entering data into the MIS database. This project is an intranet-only site.

Information Request Tracking System (IRTS)

CSC Information Request and Tracking System ThumbnailCSC solicits online customer information on a voluntary basis and the IRTS collects and reports this information for internal use. The system both requests information from users who are downloading products, including email address and organization type, and reports these variables to the lead webmaster for yearly reporting. The IRTS is also used to create mailing labels when past customers request new products. This site is another MS-SQL Server driven ASP site, and its reporting capabilities are intranet-only.

CSC Product/Project Description (PPD) Maintenance System

CSC Management Information Systems Homepage ThumbnailAs products at the Coastal Services Center became more numerous, a products maintenance system was created that allowed employees to create entries for new products as they were being produced along with the ability to post-date their release on the external web site. A second level of review was built in to allow managers to "green-light" entries and later edits before releasing them to the web.

One major advantage of the system was that the database template was passed through the normal review channels for web design, ensuring the Center-wide, mandated look and feel was utilized, but new products could be added without additional, intra-office review.

NCSU CRDM Students Page

NCSU CRDM Students PageAs the North Carolina State University's new Communication and Rhetoric of Digital Media program added new classes, keeping the students information page up to date was a headache. This PHP/MySQL system allowed students to make their own edits and additions, pushing the maintenance from the college's webmaster to the system with its pre-approved template design.
