Imagine trying to track patients, blood inventories, medical supplies, hospital beds and every other medical asset during the chaos of major natural disaster. Add in the fact that every emergency is different and you have quite a problem. Global Emergency Resources has the solution, and their product was built by Falafel Software. The HC Standard software package is a completely dynamic system down to the database. All screens are configurable, any data can be recorded including photographs and videos of the scenario, GIS mapping enables near-real time logistics information and every asset can be quickly be turned into a chart or graph for immediate visual interpretation. All of this flexibility is possible thanks to the innovative database structure, which can adapt and dynamically update its schema automatically.

"We approached Falafel Software to help us develop an advanced healthcare application with very complex and specific requirements and a short delivery cycle. Not only have they innovated at every level of application and system design, they have also immersed themselves in the demands of this vertical market space. Falafel has exceeded my expectations in every way with unsurpassed professionalism, experience and friendship in delivering this application."

Falafel Software created EventBoard, the low cost, hassle free way for conference organizers to create a mobile conference program for their event. The application was built naively for iPhone, Android and Windows Phone 7. Users can quickly find interesting sessions, create an agenda, read conference related news and tweets, view the conference floor plan, and even provide session feedback electronically. The mobile applications communicate with a Windows Azure cloud based system that uses SQL Azure as the data store. A Silverlight based administration portal, which makes extensive use of Telerik’s RadControls for Silverlight, enables conference organizers to make instant changes to events, manage their data, send push notifications, and gather feedback and statistics instantly. EventBoard’s development has been featured in Telerik case study: View Here and the product has received a rave review from a world renowned event management blogger: View Here

You can learn more about the application on its Sitefinity 4 based product website: http://www.eventboardmobile.com

"You guys have definitely built the world’s greatest conference/content management viewing app, no doubt about it!"

  • Windows Phone 7
  • WCF
  • RIA Services
  • Entity Framework
  • SQL Server
  • SQL Server Reporting Services
  • Bing Maps
  • RadControls for Silverlight

Jaroth needed to create a logistics dashboard, from which they could schedule, manage and analyze their ice cream delivery business. The solution was the StoreVoyant system designed and built by Falafel Software. StoreVoyant is a centralized hub that integrates information flowing from disparate systems, such as the Accounting/Delivery/Inventory system, mobile handsets in the fields, and the Ticketing System. In StoreVoyant, based on roles, different users can manage their portion of the business. For instance, dispatchers can use a highly customized Bing Maps dispatch screen to make decisions about which tickets to assign to which drivers, and business managers can use the dashboard screen to approve or deny new business opportunities. Falafel built the new system from scratch, and worked with Jaroth to migrate data from three legacy systems in to the new hub.

{ Telerik

  • WPF

For Telerik products, Falafel Software writes training courseware, creates training videos, and trains thousands of Telerik customers. So when Telerik wanted a desktop video trainer that would enrich the self paced training experience, they turned to Falafel Software. Falafel developed a WPF solution known as the Telerik Trainer. The Telerik Trainer has a beautiful design with rounded edges, glowing buttons, and a dark theme matching Telerik’s branding, but the Trainer is much more than a pretty video player. Synchronized highlights and tips point you at additional resources and recap the most important facts. The table of contents is updated in real time and allows you to quickly see what is coming up and jump from topic to topic. Seamless integration with Visual Studio allows you to launch corresponding code examples and be taken directly to the point being illustrated. Falafel Software produced close to 50 videos for use with the Trainer and packaged them all with the app’s administration mode. With just a few clicks, videos, code, tips and a table of contents are wrapped up into a single Telerik Trainer file.

{ Clockwork Solutions

  • WCF
  • RIA Services
  • Entity Framework
  • SQL Server
  • RadControls for Silverlight

Clockwork Solutions performs predictive modeling analysis for defense and energy clients. As one would expect, predicting the life cycle of an entire weapon systems fleet based on the simulation of logistics decisions can result in a very complex study. These studies however, can save their stakeholders a lot of money, making it imperative that they are easy to understand. Clockwork needed a custom software package that would tell the story of each of these studies in a compelling, interactive and understandable way. Enter Falafel Software. We delivered TLCM-WP, a custom Silverlight software package that combines animated data visualization with deep data and results drill down capabilities. Some highlights of the project include a suite of innovative and custom visualization components such as the Study Animator, that ties an animated map to a series of time synchronized graphs, and a the Storyboard control, that allows users to organize the information in the study. The project’s architecture was designed with extensibility in mind, allowing the story of each future Clockwork study to be told in this new visualization tool with no additional development.

Determining the levy on each parcel of land in a district has always been a time consuming and labor intensive process. Traditionally, teams of IT personnel run, review and rerun data to come to a conclusion. A multi-disciplined civil engineering and planning firm known as Albert A. Webb Associates (WEBB) sought to improve the efficiency of this process. With the help of Falafel Software, a software package known as WebbStar was born. With WebbStar, a task that previously required an entire IT team, now just requires someone to push a button. The time it takes to complete an assessment is now measured in minutes instead of hours.

"I contacted Falafel Software last year for a big rushed project as they were recommended to me by Telerik. After having been a Telerik user for many years, I've come to trust that their recommendations were trustworthy, and Falafel Software has proven themselves to be just as trustworthy. Having worked for the IT/IS Industry in both the public and private sector for close to two decades, I've had the opportunity to work with many consulting firms, developers, project managers, and consultants. Yet, Falafel Software was able to amaze me with their expertise, service, responsiveness, and workmanship. They truly care about the work that they do, and the success of their client. This is what makes them the top on my list. Thank-you Falafel Software!"

  • Cognos
  • RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX
  • OPC Systems.Net

At an airport, hundreds of things must happen quickly and seamlessly between touchdown and takeoff. JBT AeroTech produces much of the equipment airports rely on and often provides the experienced personnel needed to ensure things run like clockwork. To ensure operations personnel were aware of all things taking place, JBT AeroTech envisioned “iOps”; a customizable web based monitoring application that could provide real time visual feedback of multiple airport functions. JBT AeroTech hired Falafel Software to help turn the idea into a reality. Falafel delivered an extensible and configurable ASP.NET AJAX based application that made heavy use of Telerik’s RadDock component for customization. User’s could choose to monitor an entire terminal or any individual airport system including individual gates, elevators, escalators, baggage systems and HVAC systems. Designed for large flat screens, much could be seen at one, but user’s never lost sight of high priority alerts, thanks to a RadRotator that continually scrolled across the top of the screen with important information.

{ Second Harvest Food Bank

Technology

In 2011, Second Harvest Food Bank of Santa Clara and San Mateo Counties distributed 45 million pounds of nutritious food to low-income people in need, making this food bank one of the largest in the nation. Nearly 240,000 people were fed each month and collecting and distributing this food required 297,755 hours of volunteer service. Organizing food drives and tracking volunteer contributions is an essential aspect of their day to day operations. Falafel Software designed and built an internal web based application allowing each department to enter, retrieve and report on this data. Every food drive and every volunteer hour is recorded in this system.
