Description

Store Managers at nearly 6,900 Walgreens Drugstores across the United States and Puerto Rico order products directly from a vendor in the Midwest using a custom web application developed and maintained by Giant Software. Committed to an agressive store expansion program with a near-term goal of over 7,500 stores by the end of 2010, Walgreens currently opens a new store at an average pace of once every 18 hours. To keep up with this growth and provide managers of new stores with immediate access to the website, the application automatically synchronizes its database every hour with the latest store data from Walgreens. The application is bilingual and converts from English to Spanish with the click of a button. Key technologies: Microsoft ASP.Net and Microsoft SQL Server. In partnership with stakeholders in the medical and insurance industries, Giant Software is currently developing two new hosted applications as part of a family of insurance-based solutions for medical practices in the United States, with delivery dates scheduled for mid 2009. The early versions of these applications will be browser-based hosted applications, with Windows Smart Client versions scheduled for later release. Due to non-disclosure agreements we cannot currently discuss the specific features of these applications. Key Technologies: ASP.Net 3.5, SQL Server 2005, Windows Communication Foundation, Windows Presentation Foundation and Windows Smart Client.
