Some Key Points on Nulogy

The Nulogy Experience
Nulogy has set itself apart in the industry with its high level of customer service. Customers have publicly lauded us as “refreshing”, “great to work with”, “flawless execution”, and having “set themselves apart”. Our reputation for delivering high-quality projects on-time and on-budget has already spread through the industry despite our youth. However, there is still plenty of room for improvement, and we’re looking for someone who can take a leadership role in further refining and improving the Nulogy Experience for our customers.

Achievements
We were recently recognized by Supply & Demand Chain Executive as one of the 100 Leading Supply Chain Solution Providers and have been recognized as a Company with Extraordinary Potential (CWEP) by PricewaterhouseCoopers.

Products
We are aggressively developing sophisticated software for operational intelligence and enterprise profit management. Our flagship offering is in the new and growing area of packaging performance management. We feel that our patent-pending technology is the critical element holding back the tide of real-time business intelligence (BI) and business activity management (BAM) software. Our serious research has been supported by the federal government, and has involved simulated-annealing, and grid-computing technology for example.

Management
Nulogy was founded by a team of Systems Design Engineers from the University of Waterloo, and a professor with extensive research and consulting experience. Our complementary skill sets include experience in international business development, strategic planning at Microsoft, software development for RIM, and top-of-the-class academics. A strong team means strong execution, and in the end, that’s even more important than good ideas.

Clients
Nulogy’s clients are across North America and Europe and include global blue-chip companies.

Technology
We are improving the way software is developed. We have found great success with the Extreme Programming development process. We rigorously use test-driven development (TDD), mock-objects, refactoring, and pair-programming to rapidly and efficiently develop high quality software. We have several new projects requiring skills in new Rich Internet Application technologies such as Seam, OpenLaszlo, Echo2, Google Web Toolkit, Ruby on Rails, and DOJO.
