Overview

In January of 1994, Precision Solutions was launched to provide training and support for companies that use products developed with IBM's SB+ application development environment. Since then, we've set the standard for professional software development worldwide with our critically acclaimed SB+ Solutions reference, professional developer training, solutions implementation, and support services.

To provide the best support possible, Precision Solutions has three locations in three different time zones to serve you:

  • Mountain: Longmont, Colorado
  • Eastern: Baltimore, Maryland
  • Pacific: Battleground, Washington

As a software solutions provider, we understand the need to have a vast collection of technology options from which to choose. Therefore, in tandem with our support of various vendor products, we also use and support a number of other technologies including:

  • Operating Systems
    • Unix
    • HP-UX
    • Linux
    • Microsoft Windows 95, 98, NT, 2000, XP

  • Databases
    • Multivalue (jBase, Unidata, Universe, et al.)
    • Relational (Oracle, SQL Server, mySQL)

  • Languages
    • C++ (plus MFC | STL | GNU tools)
    • Java (plus servlet, JSP technologies)
    • Visual BASIC
    • JavaScript

  • Technologies:
    • TCP/IP (both BSD and WinSock)
    • HTML
    • XML

Objective

At Precision Solutions, our objective is really quite straightforward: We solve problems. To achieve this, we use this remarkably simple and effective process:

  • Listen to the customer.
  • Understand the customer.
  • Solve the customer's problem.
  • Support the customer.

While this may sound overly simplistic, it's a reflection of our belief that the best solutions start and end with solid customer relationships. This is why we say we're building relationships with results.

Commitment

As a Precision Solutions customer, here are some things you can count on:

  • Real people are here, waiting for your call.

    When you call, expect to speak to a real person immediately. If for some reason we can't take your call immediately, expect to be contacted either by email or phone no later than the same time on the next business day. (24 hour support is also available.)

  • You will get answers.

    You don't need to be chasing down answers from all over. Let us be your first and last call. We'll use every resource necessary to find the right solution for you.

  • You will be informed.

    We know that there's nothing more frustrating than not knowing how a project may be progressing. For this reason, you can count on being informed regularly about your projects, any outstanding issues that may require your input, and progress towards important milestones along the way. For those customers with specific reporting requirements, we'll work with you to make sure you get the information you need when you need it.

  • You will save time and money.

    We understand you have a choice when selecting a software solutions provider, and cost can be a significant consideration. With our focus on maximum productivity, we're able to achieve more in less time, thus saving you money.... often LOTS of money.
