Managed HL7 integrations and API connections across more than 50 health systems.

## 3. Case Studies

### 3.1 Greater Omaha Packing: Logistics & Transportation Management
- **Client:** Greater Omaha Packing, a meat-processing operation in Omaha, Nebraska that ships nationwide.
- **Problem:** Tracking and coordinating drivers, trucks, and trailers across the Security, Transportation, and Shipping departments relied on manual processes.
- **Solution:** An internally deployed Django application covering iPad check-in and check-out for security guards, order and load management with automated order imports, and load coordination for shipping. Integrated with McLeod TMS to import data for reporting and invoice generation. Later extended with performance tracking for departmental downtime and production metrics.
- **Impact:** Greatly reduced manual processes, fewer dispatch errors, and real-time visibility across departments.
- **Stack:** Django, PostgreSQL, McLeod API, DigitalOcean.

### 3.2 NATI: Custom WordPress Platform for a Statewide Nonprofit
- **Client:** Nebraska Association for Translators and Interpreters (natihq.org), based in Omaha.
- **Problem:** An outdated website with no way to manage member subscriptions, process donations, or handle event ticketing, and a hard deadline before the annual conference.
- **Solution:** A WordPress platform with donation processing, membership management, event ticketing, a searchable member directory, and campaign management.
- **Impact:** Delivered ahead of schedule and launched in time for conference registration.
- **Read more:** https://tiempo.software/portfolio/nati

### 3.3 B&S Painting: Local SEO & Lead Generation
- **Client:** B&S Painting and Powerwashing, a contractor serving the Minden and Kearney, Nebraska area.
- **Problem:** Referrals had slowed and the only digital presence was a Facebook page, with no lead capture and no visibility in local search.
- **Solution:** A custom, SEO-optimized website, fully managed by Tiempo Software, built for local search and quote requests.
- **Impact:** A reliable lead channel alongside the existing referral network.
- **Read more:** https://tiempo.software/portfolio/b-and-s-painting

### 3.4 Skylar Hinrichs: Managed WordPress Hosting & Performance
- **Client:** Skylar Hinrichs, a writer in Lincoln, Nebraska, running a content-driven blog (skylarhinrichs.com).
- **Problem:** Slow page loads, plugin restrictions, and high monthly costs at the previous host.
- **Solution:** Migrated the WordPress site to managed hosting, with server management, security updates, and performance monitoring handled by Tiempo Software.
- **Impact:** Faster page loads, lower hosting costs, and no server maintenance for the client.
- **Read more:** https://tiempo.software/portfolio/skylar-hinrichs

### 3.5 SQL Northstar: A Fast, Managed Site for a Database Consultant
- **Client:** SQL Northstar, a database performance consulting practice in Omaha (sqlnorthstar.com).
- **Problem:** The owner wanted to spend time writing technical articles and serving clients, not maintaining a website.
- **Solution:** A custom, hand-coded HTML site with no page builder and no plugin overhead, hosted on a Tiempo-maintained DigitalOcean server with daily backups and server security.
- **Read more:** https://tiempo.software/portfolio/sql-northstar

### 3.6 AI-Assisted Knowledge Platform for a Field-Services Team (client confidential)
- **Client:** A specialized technical services company whose experts diagnose and resolve complex problems in the field. The client's name is withheld at their request.
- **Problem:** Knowledge from each job (notes, photos, screenshots, instrument data, resolutions) was scattered across devices, message threads, and memories, so there was no reliable way to answer "have we seen this before?" External reference data was too noisy to use, and specialized data files needed desktop software to open.
- **Solution:** A custom, multi-tenant web platform for phones and desktops. Fast field capture with templates and auto-save; OCR and image recognition on attachments via the Google Cloud Vision API; an in-browser viewer for specialized data files with cloud conversion of proprietary formats; government and public data sources streamed on demand or imported daily, with the matching records ranked first and explained; and an AI assistant that summarizes similar prior jobs, can only reference the team's real records, checks every reference, and says when the evidence is thin. Background AI tasks, outage recovery, per-organization feature switches, and AI cost dashboards.
- **Stack:** DigitalOcean, Google Cloud Vision API, government and public data APIs.

## 4. Approach & Engineering Standards
- **Simplicity Over Complexity:** We favor clean, boring technology choices (e.g., Django, PostgreSQL) that minimize operational overhead unless specific requirements call for something else.
- **Built Around Existing Workflows:** Software is shaped to how a team already works.
- **Right-Sized Infrastructure:** Environments are sized to the workload, monitored, and predictably billed.
- **Managed for the Long Run:** Hosting clients get backups, security updates, and maintenance handled for them.
