Database Management

As the amount of information burgeons at an accelerated pace, it is becoming increasingly more challenging to manage and utilize pertinent data. Immediate access to the most current and accurate information enables you to make the best decisions for the successful execution of your business objectives. KES has designed and implemented a high-performance database management system that ensures quick and reliable access to the information resources that drive your corporation. From business transactions to mission-critical data, the database management system administers comprehensive information to help you operate more efficiently at all levels of your organization. Critical components of this system includes:

Heterogeneous Data Storage - Making optimal decisions for your corporation requires having access to all kinds of information. The system's powerful scalability organizes and maintains extensive amounts of comprehensive data.

Maximum Data Security - All valuable information requires maximum security. Data integration features ensure reliable access to the most accurate and current information about customers, company infrastructure, and competitors.

Rapid Data Retrieval - In order to make timely decisions in response to the evolving industry, you need quick access to up-to-date information. Robust management features provide the capability to immediately access and identify crucial information.

Ease of Data Manipulation - Changing business requirements demand database flexibility. Divisible units such as tables, queries, reports, and forms let you analyze, extrapolate and build different data relationships according to your needs.

Sharing of Centralized Information - Consistency of information enhances the implementation of better-informed decisions. With enterprise replication capabilities, users can share integrated, accurate information across the Internet or your company's intranet regardless of where they are.

Systems Engineering

KES is proud of the innovating systems solutions for the Hunter Warrior Advanced Warfighting Experiment for the Commandant's Warfighting Laboratory and LeatherNet the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency. We conducted requirements extraction and analysis and designing operational sequences and systems architecture.

Systems Integration and Testing

KES systems integration and testing capabilities span the requirements of such diverse projects as the Office System Internetworking for JSYS, Inc. and J-Comm International, Inc. and the Urban Warrior Advanced Warfighting Experiment for the Marine Corps Warfighting Laboratory. We are experienced in application integration, hardware/network integration, integrated application testing and lower level communications testing.

Rapid Prototype 
We have designed a variety of prototypes for such projects as the Advanced Amphibious Assault Vehicle Project for General Dynamics and Real-Time Retargeting for the Office of Naval Research. Our designs include computer-based models for use in assessment and element-level planners with JAVA-based software.

Independent Verification and Validation
Independent verification and validation are critical phases of any new technology, and KES is committed to providing the best available. We've worked with such organizations as SPAWAR and the Ballistic Missile Defense Office, on the Arrow Link Upgrade Converter, developing test plans and procedures as well as executing and reporting systems capabilities. 

Software Design and Development 
We've done everything from traditional software application to enterprise field design and development including a problem logging and tracking system for Synthetic Theater of War - a three-tier architecture using RDBMS with a web-based front end - and a job costing and tracking database for the Military Sales Business Office at SPAWAR Systems Center, San Diego.
