NetJets / Executive Jet Management Charter Availability Scheduling System
NetJets offers fractional ownership and rental of private business jets. Executive Jet Management manages on-demand air charter services and charter aircraft management services. During peak usage periods more charter aircraft are needed to fill the demand for flights.
NetJets/EJM was managing the reservation and scheduling of charter aircraft using Excel. They wanted to continue using Excel as a front-end but wanted a solution that would not be subject to data corruption. Arisen created the availability scheduling system for subcontract and charter flights using an Excel front-end and a new ASP.NET web application. The system saved the company thousands of dollars per day and reduced the generation of executive analytical reports from days to seconds.
Procter & Gamble – Virtual Special Pack Retail Promotion System
Procter & Gamble is a consumer packaged goods manufacturer who was interested in optimizing the creation of "special packs" for sale at retail locations. A “special pack” is a package of two or more items that are bundled together to be sold for a special promotion price at retail (e.g. a shrink-wrapped package of shampoo and conditioner – buy the shampoo and get a 50% discount on the price of the conditioner).
The NTR Group devised an idea of a "virtual special pack" that would give consumers the same benefit but would require no logistics and packaging expense for P&G to create the packs. The packaging was done "virtually" and purchases and discounts were given based on market-basket transactions. Arisen was the architectural designer and implementor of the patent-pending Virtual Special Pack system.
ReCasa Financial Group - Loan Tracking and Invoicing System
ReCasa Financial Group is a financial lending company that provides services to real estate investors. Their rehabilitation loans provide 100% financing for the purchase, improvements and closing costs for 1-4 family non-owner occupied properties.
Arisen worked closely with President and Controller to design ASP.NET workflow system for loan initiation, funding, invoicing, and payoff of specialty financing for residential property rehabilitation market. The system reduced invoice generation from days to minutes and eliminated potential interest calculation errors. Within six months of deployment, ReCasa was processing three times the number of financed loans (something that would not have been feasible with the prior system).
ReCasa Loan Tracking and Invoicing System - Phases 2 & 3
ReCasa Financial Group is a financial lending company that provides services to real estate investors. Their rehabilitation loans provide 100% financing for the purchase, improvements and closing costs for 1-4 family non-owner occupied properties.
Arisen had previously created the ReCasa Loan System, and in phases 2 and 3, Arisen added new features to the system to help with the underwriting process, reporting, and integration with Salesforce.com.
The ReCasa Loan System is a loan processing system used by the ReCasa staff to assess new loan risks, track loans and interest, perform invoicing, apply payments, produce reports and administer short-term rehab loans.
ReCasa asked Arisen to upgrade the system that was origionally built by Arisen in 2004.
Arisen upgraded the database from SQL 2000 to SQL 2012, upgraded from .NET Framework 1.1 to .NET Framework 4.5, helped moved hosting to Amazon AWS cloud.
ReCasa's New Deal Worksheet was converted from an ActiveX VBA Excel workbook embedded in the web application to an Excel document-level application using C#.
Arisen upgraded and enhanced security in .NET application, optimized the invoicing process and enhanced the fee and payment posting processes and added batch fee support.
