The hospital OffDuty Wizard is a great help in completing the nurse off-duty or work roster/rota for a hospital ward or clinic. The design has focused on the user interface, and provides nursing staff with a familiar off duty form combined with intuitive controls. An important design goal was to achieve a simplicity of function to remove the need for any specific ICT training. A Staff File contains all the ward/clinic, staff and shift requirements.

Warehouse Wizard is a stock control system designed specifically for clothes retail and manufacturing. It provides for stock control, order processing, picklists, invoicing and sales analysis. The unusual element to the Warehouse Wizard is the handling of size and colour in a very efficient process and specialised user interface. The house profile for a given stock line can be used to generate customer picklists, this is linked to the original stock purchase or factory profile of colours and sizes.

The customer & supplier databases within Warehouse Wizard are an excellent alternative to spreadsheet type software with a friendly user interface and can be adapted to many applications.

Fitness Test - Beep Test / Bleep Test (new version June 2009)
This Beep Test PC (usually laptop) software gives an implementation of the Leger (1982) fitness test now under many names - Shuttle Test, Beep Test, Yo-Yo Test, Bleep Test. Basically you run between two lines, twenty metres apart keeping pace with the 'beep' interval. The fitness test is in stages, starting at a warmup pace of 8km/h at stage 1. Every minute the stage is incremented and speed is increased. This bleep test or beep test will test the maximum aerobic endurance of a player. We have focused on the timing accuracy, in test on our slowest PC (400MHz Pentium II) we achieved 2 hundredths of a second accuracy on the beep timing.

Version 2.5 (Jan 2007) has a lap counter and total distance covered in metres to make it easier to read/track your beeptest score.

Version 2.6 (June 2008) has a 'design your own' fitness test feature that allows you to customise the runner speed, add intermittent rests, and change the lap distance.

Version 3.0 (May 2009) new graphics on stats window (zoom and highlight functions). Team Beep Test can now run on a memory stick.

Martin of Rugbycoach.com wanted a beeptest for the team, be able to record players scores quickly and chart fitness over the season. There is now a Team Beep Test download available from ___________ and makes it very easy to organise and record a team test, the on-screen VO2Max feature has been included.

StreetSure is an aid to highways/road maintenance and planning, providing efficient roadside data capture in the form of a maintenance report with integral GPS positioning. The system essentially allows the user to quickly classify road/pavement surface damage, categorise the maintenance requirement with a combined safety checklist, accurately locate and rapidly record into a simple electronic database at the roadside. The system comprises of a field unit, PocketPC (HP iPAQ 2210 or equivalent) with the StreetSure application software, local database and Global Positioning System (GPS) as one compact, robust inexpensive handheld unit. These units will interface/ synchronise with the main computer servers, downloading local database entries into the parent database. The StreetSure system has been designed for flexibility, we believe the system can be adapted for many council uses where classification or action needs to be assessed and recorded together with an accurate location for the work groups. The StreetSure field unit can also be used to help navigate - using a standard GPS mapping system, to the maintenance locations recorded in the database.
