In partnership with a local school board, Cardinal has developed a software solution that keeps track of contracts and maitnenance agreements. With a focus on the budgeting requirements for the thousand sof contracts required throughout an organization, CoMBS provides a comprehensive and easy-to-use method of ensuring contract renewals are prepared well in advance. Having a database of contract information ensures that you are prepared well in advance of contract expiration and therefore equipped to successfully negotiate better terms. Plus, you can be sure all contract items have been included in your budget process!

CoMBS is a pure web application developed for both IE and Netscape. ODBC compliant data access routines allow for your choice of database - SQLServer, Oracle, etc. Without the need for end client installations, CoMBS is installed and accessible to your users easily and without complication. Developed with low band-width and remote networks in mind, CoMBS deploys little client side scripting and relies on the robust server-side scripting for most of its calculating routines. Combined with minimal graphics, our design ensures satisfactory response time - regardless of the connection speed.

CoMBS comprensive admin modules allows you to configure the application to suit your organization and requirements. Color schemes, custom headers, GL and Vendor ODBC connection, security levels and budget year set up are all parameter driven.

Keep on top of the contract negotiation and renewal process using CoMBS by establishing budget responsibility, pre-renewal review dates and estimated/established future price increases. Prepare budget forecasting reports on the fly - anywhere, anytime. Custom configured status codes are assigned throughout the process to ensure CoMBS will accommodate all work-flow scenarios.
