The challenge

Streamline data collection from Fortune 500 companies. Build a secure system that allows Fortune 500 companies to update their information within the MySQL system. System would allow companies to view their information as well as add and edit existing entries. The system should also allow Catalyst to view the companies that have not confirmed their information and allow printing of forms for companies to fill out.

Our solution

ProAce developed a system from the ground up which Catalyst could use to import data from existing database. Catalyst would then allow companies to access their information via encrypted passwords. Companies are able to enter the system submit changes and submit their information to Catalyst. Administration section allows Catalyst to view all the companies that have submitted their information as well as download the latest CSV file.
