ASP Programming at Cambria
Cambria programmers embarked upon their first ASP programming project back in 1997 and since that time there has not been a day when there have not been ongoing ASP programming projects. Today ASP.Net has largely replaced ASP in our programming, but even now we maintain many programs written in earlier versions of ASP.

The Cambria ASP Programming Team
Kathleen Fisher is the ASP programming genius behind such Cambria ASP products as the Cambria E-Commerce Store, the Cambria Time and Billing System, and the Cambria Calendar software that are used in many of Cambria's programming projects as well as in numerous web-enabled database projects.

Natalia Gabrielyants was an ASP programming expert when she joined Cambria in 1999. She used ASP to write the Cambria CRMS product and has led or participated in many ASP programming projects. These include one for the Napoli School in which students can sign up for classes and choose their own schedules on the web. She is currently finishing up a major ASP programming project for an international drug company based in India.

ASP programming specialists James Bickley and Michael Loftus have been primarily instrumental in using ASP to create software for document management purposes and, in particular, they created the document management engine that is at the heart of several major ASP programming projects.

Sample ASP Programming Projects

• For several years Cambria has been involved in a large ASP programming project for DeSilva Gates, a major Silicon Valley construction company, to store all their company documents in a database. This includes a wide variety of items, from letters of correspondence to change orders, time cards, insurance certificates, daily personnel and equipment reports, and more. Employees at dozens of their work sites can then access these documents as soon as they come in, an enormous benefit for the use of such documents as change orders.
  
  It is more than a document management system. From remote locations, an employee may create new projects, schedule ongoing projects, and view all documents related to their work that have come into the main office. The system has eliminated the need for a great deal of mail or document couriers and has improved the communication and sharing of information. The system acts as the nerve center for their company, with tens of gigabytes of documents and images stored in the database over the past year, and this usage is accelerating.
  
  
• The manual process of creating physician on-call schedules is time-consuming and tedious. After signing up at PhysiciansOnCall.com, a site created by Cambria using ASP programming techniques, coordinators are able to create on-call schedules in minutes that meet the needs of all of the providers and fairly distribute the nights. The corporate web site has an administration section for group coordinators and a separate administration section for the Physicians On Call staff.
  
  
• Founded in 1929 in Philadelphia, Goodway Group is a 3-generation family owned and operated marketing and printing business. Besides doing national advertising for various automotive companies, part of their business is to provide print advertisements and marketing pieces for regional dealerships. ASP programming was used to create their corporate web site and designed an ASP web-based system that allows regional dealers to sign on and order newspaper inserts and marketing pieces. The regional reps can also sign on and see which of their dealers have ordered and which have not.
  
  
• For Indiana-based Bryan Steam Company, Cambria has created a web based catalog used for their representatives to efficiently spec out the appropriate equipment for their clients and create fully costed bids on the spot at the customer sites. This project, primarily done by Michael Loftus, was created using ASP.Net.

ASP and ASP.Net at Cambria
The above are only a few of the dozens of ASP programming projects that our ASP team has completed over the years. These days, of course, the newer sites make use of ASP.Net and all these professionals are adept at this newest of the Microsoft Tools.
