Information Control System, Genoa's copyrighted Internet software.

Genoa Design's system simulates on- site design teams while reducing costs for clients. Using the system, clients can view work in progress and supply tech- nical feedback in a secure online envi- ronment. "For most of our potential clients, pro- duction and detail design requirements fluctuate," explained Genoa Design's president, Leonard Pecore. "We're offering them an economical and stable solution to meet their changing needs.

They can get their work done right away with the added convenience of being able to virtually look over our shoulders at their work in progress, 24 hours a day."

One of the challenges that Genoa faced in developing an online system was ensuring that clients would feel comfortable working with a remote office. "This kind of connectivity is new in our field," Pecore said. "Basically, we've set our operation up to ensure that we're as convenient as having a person work across the hallway. With the resources we have, we can jump right into a pro- ject with minimal preparation outside the norm. Another great advantage of the system is not having to worry about geographic boundaries."

Genoa Design has been serving the marine and offshore sectors since 1995.
