The Challenge:
About twenty years ago, Conrad needed a computer software tool that could computerize its business process using Apple computers. Conrad wanted to convert all the familiar forms from paper format to computer screens and at the same time to embed the business logic into an integrated system. Omnis is the tool that Conrad chose to meet its needs.

The Solution:
The flexibility of the Omnis Studio application development environment links Conrad’s business processes into a highly effective system that includes Quotation, Contract Review, Job order, Procurement, Planning, Production, Inventory Control, Quality, Cost Analysis, Financial, Payroll, Risk Management, Alerts, and Document Management. Omnis Studio helped Conrad to become one of the first AS9100C certified companies in the aerospace industry. All the information required for the certification is at their fingertips.
With its powerful and flexible system offering rich-features and easy-to-use development tools, Conrad will continue to use Omnis Studio. Omnis combines the business-oriented data management technology with object-oriented rapid generation tools that has allowed Conrad to apply DRY (Don’t Repeat Yourself) and MVC (Model-View-Controller) concepts in the system development. It keeps development and maintenance in a reliable and efficient state. The multiple database support also offers Conrad an option to select a database that fits its needs now and in the future.
Continual enhancement supporting the latest technology is another key factor that keeps Conrad using Omnis Studio. Ongoing development of new features ensures that Conrad’s system will never become obsolete and the company will remain competitive in a rapid changing market. Currently, Conrad is working on migrating its system to Omnis Studio 6.x using JavaScript Client and making the system available on mobile devices.
