Application development

Delivering innovation

In many cases, an out-of-the-box product is not a suitable match to an organisation's requirements. System Associates has an established team of experienced software developers who are committed to bringing innovation and excellence to its web technology projects. Working closely with our consulting team, they deliver bespoke technology which is tailored for our clients.

Our developers have been responsible for the development of g-Suite, as well as other innovative applications such as:

  • Find Your Nearest - A bespoke solution using Geographical Information System (GIS) technology. Find Your Nearest can be found in many of System Associates' portal solutions including Your London and London eAdmissions. Users can enter a postcode or street name to retrieve information which is most relevant to them and their location.
  • Portal spider - System Associates' bespoke spidering software enables the retrieval of website information based on strict content criteria and also enables portal links monitoring.
  • Single sign-on - Our single sign-on module is used in several web projects, including the provision of access to a number of learning applications via the National College of School Leadership's (NCSL) collaboration and learning portal. The system allows users to browse between numerous third party applications, including Talk2Learn and the Learning Gateway, without having to re-login to individual applications.
  • Personalisation and registration - Often used in conjunction with our single sign-on module, our tailored registration system enables users to specify items of interest, so that they receive material which is directly relevant to them.
  • Document management - Our document management solution can capture high volumes of text or images and link directly to g-Media, our digital media library, to provide fast and efficient delivery of content to the web.
