One look at the source code and you can tell why they're so great.

- What is your role and duties?
I am responsible for projects that relate to entrusted operations, from reviewing policies and formulating plans to implementation, development, and operations.
- What is the back story behind your incremental development?
One system requirement for operating and developing for @G*1was Java, and after looking for a good company with internal technology, C-Square's name came up so we contacted them.
- What were some challenges for the incremental development of @G?
The project had technical requirements to be implemented and involved adding functions to display information from a system with an original existing database. We hired C-Square to come up with a solution to implement the additional functionality as we needed a company that could play catch up to the existing environment quickly and possessed high technical skill.
- Were there any improvements after the installation/additions?
The add-ons included an internal search function, and helped us gain users through an affiliate program.
I believe that after establishing a relationship with the GSK*2 retail site, users could check the latest product information and we gained support from the user community.
- What were some highlights of working with C-Square?
C-Square helped us tremendously by thinking of different solutions and offering proposals after listening to our requirements.
When reviewing the source code for modules, we didn't have many arguments about doing "this or that," as they seemed to have already wrestled with the details internally. One look at the source code and you'll understand why it's so great.
- Having them on board basically allowed me to do what I really needed to do.
Thank you.
