Case Studies
A selection of our recent projects
LA HealthDataNow
#development #consultingWe created an internal web portal to provide a sophisticated interface for running reports against their SAS database. The database includes a vast amount of historical statistical data, including birth and death records, and information on various risk factors. The underlying database is powered by a legacy CGI application which we built a custom ASP.NET wrapper around in order to facilitate an internal user database with varying security and functionality access levels. We built a query builder for this system to allow greater power in their reporting and data mining. We then helped migrate this application to have some portions available for use by the general public, and continue to work with the county on expanding the functionality of the system.

Introduction to Hankins Consulting, Inc.
We have extensive web development experience
Hankins Consulting, Inc, has been providing specialized Web development consulting services to meet our client’s needs since 2002.
As a mid-sized consulting firm, we offer a unique business model that has many advantages over the alternatives of either using an individual
freelancer or a larger consulting group. On the one hand, individual freelance consultants typically specialize in only a few specific
technologies and have limited availability, though often are affordable solutions. On the other hand, larger consulting groups typically
have a wide array of staff consultants, though their bill rates tend to be much higher in order to account for employing their consultants
even when they are not actively billing.
Our business model is different.
At Hankins Consulting, we have built an extensive network of
consultants across a wide variety of technology skill sets that we retain as needed. When a client engages us, we make use of this network to
match the specific type of consultants needed for the project. This allows us to provide consultants with the specific kind of technical
expertise needed for your project’s requirements at a competitive price.
Headquartered in the San Francisco Bay Area, our consultants are based throughout the United States and can work remotely or on-site as your project requires.
