On-line Procurement System: Hannamation developed a private tracking system for a company which specializes in procurement of parts on a large scale. This system matches parts to potential suppliers, automates the RFQ process, provides tools for reviewing quotes and selecting a vendor, and tracks the ordering and shipping processes. It includes multi-level logins; giving different users (employees, clients, and vendors) appropriate views into the data.

"Pat took over an unfinished development effort and systematically transformed our SQL-based site into a top-rate system. He was constantly innovating on the fly, responding to our needs. Updates were installed seemlessly, with virtually no downtime.
Honest, reliable and capable. Those are three words that describe Pat Hanna."
- Glen Greene, IT Manager

iSpy Systems.com is a site that Hannamation took over after the owner had been abandoned by the previous developer. We were able to work within the existing framework to salvage the site at minimal cost. We cleaned up the database design and added PayPal® payment processing and a complete administration console so that the owners could easily manage the incoming orders and user information. You can visit the site here.

Rook+ is based on the Rook® card game which was popular when we were kids. We created this adaptation of the game to test the idea of on-line product marketing. It was written in Visual Basic and includes graphics, animation and look-ahead logic for the computer players. You can still download a copy of it here.

"I just wanted to let you know that I can't seem to get enough of rookplus."
- Jean Fulbright, Rook+ player
