Outland Research

 
 
WHAT WE DO: *Designing and building weird stuff throughout the world for over 20 years. The list on the right includes most of the projects I’ve worked on. Most of them are active links. Click on a few if you want to get a better idea. *Designing database systems for those who design theme parks. These database are designed as a project or attraction based set of four files: Budgets, Elements, Drawings and Tasks, which also include company and contact management. I designed these as the tools I use for my job, but I have been selling them to more and more people. On my current project I have it securely served on the net which allows people around the world to work on it 24 hours a day. And they do. After each project they become a great archived set that can be moved around and reused individually if the project gets rebuilt. WHO WE ARE: Hi, I’m John Erickson and Outland Research is my company. We have two employees, I do the project management and/or technical direction for the shows, as well as the database design for various clients. Yumi does the books. We only need two since I am normally hired to be part of a bigger team for a specific project or part of a project. It seems to be a fast and flexible way to work. Teams and/or members of a team are assembled and disassembled as needed over the course of a project. And as soon as I finish one there are more waiting. I like this method. Why the name Outland Research? Because a lot of what I do has never been done quite that way before. It also requires constant research and reanalysis to pull some of the things these teams do. Quite often, these concepts are “out there”, not your standard stuff. And those are all just made up excuses. I was living on Outland View Drive at the time I formed the company and I was trying to find a web name that wasn’t taken. This happened to be a combination that worked so I made that my company :-) For more information, click the link below to send an email: outlandresearch@earthlink.net ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- mailto:outlandresearch@earthlink.netshapeimage_1_link_0
