Quoting for steel construction is core business for our client but is put at significant risk by a legacy system. Our quoting engine maintains the competitive advantage of an accurate and timely quoting system while providing a future proofing assurance through flexibility and robust design.

Our project has been in use since September 2012, in which time 50+ quotes have been processed. This has given a 300% increase in productivity in their overall quoting system.

The Peace Foundation has identified a need for high school students to learn skills required to confront and solve their problems in everyday life. Norbarsel has developed an interactive application that aids in the teaching of problem solving skills. The application has been available in New Zealand for several months and has already been requested for implementation in overseas schools.

Value proposition•The process of environmental farm accreditation is time consuming and potentially costly, an obstacle to mainstream adaptation of any scheme. E-Farm has solved this issue by streamlining the process and putting all the necessary resources for accreditation in the palm of creditors' hands using smartphone and wireless technologies. E-Farm has to date been used to accredit 12 Farms around the region and reducedprocessing time by 52%

The µCloud project has addressed the opportunity of the Raspberry Pi which is a compact computer.

Currently to use the Raspberry Pi a user must plug in a keyboard, mouse and a screen. We propose to allow the user to configure the device via wireless interface.

We will have a functional system developed by late April. We expect the software to be used by at least a few hundred people.

Option 1◦ Configuration via an app which runs on Android,

iPhone and PC (Using either Bluetooth or Wi-Fi) Option 2◦ Configuration via a webpage hosted by the

Raspberry Pi – Accessed via Ad-hoc network hosted via the Raspberry Pi

Risk Action to Avoid/Minimise

500 unique users with measureable increase in botanical knowledge amongst visitors.

Our first solution is a 20 questions styled app that asks the user questions to narrow down the closest option 

to the plant they’re investigating.
