- IDEA 2004
-
Gemini SBS was hired by the Office of Special Education Programs at the
US Department of Education to produce a website for the IDEA 2004
statute and regulations. The site provides families and educators with
numerous tools for accessing and interpreting IDEA 2004, including
topical briefs, streaming video (with closed captions), a powerful
search engine, and a helpdesk system.
- TAcommunities
-
The TAcommunities website provides groupware software for enabling
collaboration among geographically and organizationally distributed
communities of practice. The site includes features like a document
repository, discussion boards, listservs, customizable homepages,
and a complex hierarchy of administrators, users, and groups.
- RRFC Matrix
-
The RRFC Matrix is a national database of technical assistance and
dissemination efforts around special education. Organizations can
maintain information about their own projects in a manner that
facilitates their federal reporting obligations. The database also
includes a powerful web services API, enabling third-party
developers to create desktop or web-based software for querying or
updating records without requiring the end user to ever visit the site.
- RRFC Portal
-
The RRFC Network includes 6 regional resource centers and 1 federal
resource center. The US Department of Education, which funds the
network, asked that these seven entities work together to create
a single portal website to replace each of their individual sites.
Gemini SBS managed the delicate process of designing a portal
that could provide cross-network consistency while still respecting
the autonomy and individual identity of each network organization.
The backend includes an advanced content management system (CMS)
for network personnel to add and maintain content in their own
areas of expertise.
- SERVE's Integrated Needs and Responses Database
-
The SERVE Center at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro
hired Gemini SBS to create a database for tracking constituent
requests for information or assistance in a centralized repository.
The database facilitates team-based support, and over time can be
used as a knowledge base for training, documentation, or other purposes.
- NISAT - National Information System for Assitive Technology
-
The NISAT website is a complex data collection and reporting engine
for information about the acquisition and use of assistive
technologies. Massive paper-based data entry forms needed to be
converted to online equivalents in a manner that was accessible,
user friendly, and able to accomodate a team of people entering
data on the same form over a period of weeks or months.
- Fractured Atlas
-
Fractured Atlas is the nation's largest non-profit arts service organization.
In addition to their sprawling website, Gemini SBS has provided software
to automate nearly all of their day-to-day administrative processes, freeing
staff to focus their time and energy on customer service and program
development. Online e-commerce transactions are automatically imported
into offline accounting software (Quickbooks); helpdesk software tracks
all customer interactions in a centralized repository for team-based
customer service; member and donor files are all fully accessible through
a secure online interface, enabling staff to do their work from home or
on the road without missing a beat.
