Cirtronics Corporation is a contract electronics manufacturer specializing in printed circuit board & electromechanical system assembly. Exoteric acts as an advisor and systems developer for Cirtronics, working with their in-house team to renew and extend the role of the FileMaker database that sits at the center of their proprietary SQL-based ERP/MRP management systems. FileMaker is more flexible and easier to program than their proprietary systems, providing a front-end for areas that would otherwise be difficult to access and its ability to integrate directly with SQL databases makes it the perfect communications hub for their systems.
Cion is the technical services and software wing of The Ingenium Group, one of the largest privately held architectural engineering, planning, and consulting companies in the world. Exoteric created a FileMaker Go database for performing building inspections on the iPad that works in conjunction with a FileMaker Pro database running on FileMaker Server in their head office. The FileMaker Go database captures inspection results for a fixed set of criteria, allowing inspectors to use the iPad to very quickly note issues and take photographs of problems and store them directly in the database. At the end of an inspection the results are sent up to the server where report generation and various types of analysis are performed. In addition, a PDF of the results can be emailed to third parties directly from the iPad.
