Yellahoose helps Crossroads, Gulf of Maine Council (ESIP, Times, Restoration), PDT Architects, Shannondell, HolzCreative and Cradock Woodworking

February 2010 - February was a busy one for Yellahoose and its current and new customers!

Crossroads for Women began billing from its new clinical tracking software, implemented in 2009, with Yellahoose's help customizing claims and tweaking claim data for the Agency's specific needs. Remote computer management solutions were also rolled-out in the Agency's Kennebunk, Windham, Portland (Back Cove and Old Port) locations.

The Gulf of Maine Times published monthly updates to the online newspaper. These include news about Nova Scotia's recently published state of the coast report as well as a study on climate change and its measured affect on Casco Bay.

Ecosystem Indicator Partnership published its March/April 2010 journal.

Gulf of Maine Council's Habitat restoration program (in partnership with NOAA and Maine State Planning Office) made significant updates to and launched its online grant application tool on March 1.

PDT Architects, the Portland, Maine-based community-focused architecture and design firm, relocated its web presence to Yellahoose partner Packawhallop's servers... with Yellahoose help managing the technical aspects of the uneventful relocation.

Yellahoose helped Atlanta, Georgia-based King & Moore and HolzCreative move, make necessary programming and database updates and relaunch the Shannondell at Valley Forge website.

And Boston, Massachusetts-based Kevin Cradock Woodworking moved its website, including database and CMS systems, with Yellahoose's expert analysis and assistance.
