Success Stories
Here are just a few examples of our recent client successes. Each client had unique business goals and situations which required a custom software solution. Brainspire helped each customer achieve real business benefits and a high return on their investment by building a trusted mutually beneficial relationship and leveraging the Brainspire Development Framework.
Moody Insurance Agency
Insurance Agency wanted a proposal generator to save their agents time creating annual presentations for their clients.
Moody Insurance sells employee benefits packages to their corporate clients. Every year they create a new presentation for each customer with updated rates and options for insurance providers. These presentations require agents to spend weeks and months manually gathering and entering demographic data and the rates for every provider.
Cool Planet
A bio-fuel company increases employee interaction with their internal online portal by implementing Employee Recognition while improving their online Order Tracking.
Cool Planet’s online employee portal (built with SharePoint) was relatively new and underutilized by the employees. The internal online portal also had a Sales Order Tracking SharePoint list but was not complex enough to track everything the company needed. It had become more of a burden than a benefit.
Johns Manville

Dashboards and visualizations were created to provide additional insight into shipping volume, rate of utilization of automation tools, and other KPI’s identified by the client.
Trimble
A large navigation company gains insight into their server performance and billing breakdown thanks to metrics-driven reports.
Trimble owns servers that customers buy/lease from them. They also own server performance diagnostic tools that regularly record statistics about the servers. These statistics are stored as raw data, and Trimble had no easy way to assemble these statistics and share them with customers. A large and overwhelming financial report is produced once a month, but this report is not intuitive or easy to interpret.
SRS Acquiom
SRS Acquiom delivers more efficient solutions to the M&A market’s most sophisticated investors, acquirers, and their advisors.
SRS Acquiom manages the process of validating shareholders and distributing payouts associated with a merger or acquisition. SRS Acquiom maintained all its data and documentation within one single core application (NetSuite), which was not entirely accessible by outside sources or performing as needed. The company needed a new database and secure portal solutions to be scalable and serve customer needs better.
EBAS
EBAS needed a more robust system to accommodate a new testing provider.
EBAS partners with the regulatory community, offering an exam that assesses a licensee’s understanding of ethics and boundaries in a professional setting.

Global Phone Case Manufacturer

The Client (manufacturer) did not know how products were performing “in channel” after wholesaling inventory into Retailer, Carriers, and Indirect Distributors. Without having a clear understanding of “consumer sell through rates” and channel inventory, the Client was unable to take action on customer inventory risks and was unable to identify sales opportunities with factual data. The Client wanted to be able to view all of the Point of Sale and Channel Inventory data in aggregate to access inventory risks and opportunities that could be reported up to the executive level as an early indicator of risks and opportunities. The Client also wanted to be able to integrate this channel data with ERP, Financial, and Operational data so they could have a one-stop shop for operation reporting and analytical modeling.
Cosmetics Company
An international cosmetics firm gains new insight and clarity into their order management process.
The client is a multi-national cosmetics company that delivers high-quality products to budget conscious consumers. Orders followed a complicated processing path through several different platforms, ranging from legacy systems to newer platforms such as NetSuite, making it a challenge to locate and track orders through their lifecycle. Consequently, order fulfillment was not as efficient as it could be and finding overdue orders that needed to be shipped was problematic. The client hired Brainspire’s Business Intelligence and Reporting talent to address these challenges while allowing its internal IT staff to focus on other projects.
