Custom Software Design and Development

Desktop · Web · Mobile · Mainframe

Logical Decision Data Solutions provides custom computer programming, application design and development, and related services for desktop, web, mobile, and mainframe platforms. Established in 2016, LDDS is a natural evolution of our former company, The VB Programmer. While Visual Basic (VB) remains a core competency at LDDS, the Logical Decision name reflects the current expansion of the company and ability to develop solutions for clients using a broad range of toolsets.

Our clientele comprises a diverse set of industries including, but not limited to:


medical / health care

legal services

financial planning

insurance

real estate

retail sales

landscaping

transportation

market research

We specialize in the design, development and maintenance of applications for the following platforms:

Desktop

Design, develop and maintain client/server or single-user desktop applications using current version of Visual Studio/Visual Basic for the front-end GUI (graphical user interface) against a variety of back-end database systems including SQL Server, MS-Access, Oracle, and DB/2. We also support applications developed with classic Visual Basic (VB6).

For MS-Access database applications, we can assist in several ways, including developing a complete application from scratch, modifying existing code and UI elements, adding new forms, queries, reports, or modules, converting a legacy application to MS-Access, upsizing an MS-Access database to SQL Server or Oracle, or developing a new front-end.

We provide expertise in MS-Office (Excel and Word) automation and integration. Automation can be done through VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) within the Office application itself or by using a standard Visual Basic program as a front-end.

Web

Design, develop and maintain powerful, scalable, data-driven web applications leveraging the latest technologies and development techniques. Implementing data-driven design is essential for ensuring that your website effectively serves your user’s needs. Whether users are looking to order a product, schedule an appointment, research your company, or inquire about your services, your website gives them their first impression of your brand. While a visually appealing user interface (UI) is attractive, the user experience (UX) must also produce the results they are looking for. This is where data-driven design comes in. We can assist you in developing and maintaining a site that is easy to navigate, engaging, and provides the results your users expect. Our expertise includes but is not limited to .NET, Azure, AWS, Angular, Node.js; we can also maintain classic ASP sites.

Mobile

Design, develop and maintain powerful, engaging, and functional data-driven mobile applications leveraging the latest technologies and development techniques. Today is the mobile age and having a mobile app employed makes you that much more accessible to your customers and also provides the ability for your staff to connect while out in the field. We can develop mobile apps for you targeting platforms including iPhone, iPad, and Android.

Mainframe

Mainframe-based computing is strong in many sectors of our economy, and the vast majority of software mainframes run on is written in the COBOL programming language. COBOL has been around for over 60 years and is still alive and kicking. We can develop and maintain COBOL-centric applications using a simulated IBM mainframe development environment for creation of client deliverables. We can also assist with COBOL-based application development and maintenance on other (non-mainframe) platforms.
