A few of our projects for clients...


Online public-access livestock catalogue with genetic ranking

BreedObject The Animal Genetics and Breeding Unit wanted to adapt their BreedObject beef sire evaluation software for use on the Internet. We developed www.BreedObject.com, producing Australia's first online beef-sire/semen sales catalogue ranking by estimated breeding values (EBV) and with custom $Index calculation for online evaluation of relative sire performance.

See a full case study of the BreedObject web project at the Australian Federal Government Information Economy web site.



Web-based genetics database for distributed workgroup

Beef CRC DatabaseThe Cooperative Research Centre for Beef Quality and Production required a database system to provide easy access to large quantities of data to research scientists across Australia.
We recommended a web-based interface, and developed the Beef CRC database system to support distributed access through the Internet.



Fleet Management system

Fleet Management screenshotThe University of New England approached us to develop a replacement system for their aging motor pool fleet management software. The UNE motor pool operates on a full cost-recovery basis, so accurate and timely fleet information is vital to day-to-day running.

Using Microsoft Access we developed a custom fleet management system, providing tracking of vehicle maintenance, fuel usage, and lease arrangements for multiple lease companies and internally owned vehicles.



Web-based genetics database with integrated evaluation toolset

The Southern Tree Breeder's Association had 60 years worth of data from tree-breeding trials held in a variety of formats. They wanted to make this store of information accessible to their far-flung member organisations. We designed a robust web-based data management system integrated with the analysis tool TREEPLAN to enable users to update, analyse and report on tree breeding trials across Australia.

STBA also had us develop their corporate web site.



High-profile web site with easily updated information

The ABS Building Society required a new web site to establish their web presence. They wanted an accessible site, with easily available information on their highly competitive lending and borrowing rates. Hutchinson Software designed and implemented www.absbuildingsociety.com.au, focusing on making key information readily available to users of the site, and creating a design that allowed the ABS to keep their rate information always up to date.
