A Story of How We Fit
Bobcat Online Library
Issue
Bobcat had an issue where they had thousands of product manuals available for all their different models but no clear easy way to navigate and find a manual that you may need. They wanted a system that could index gigabytes of pdf files into a manageable website that could be easily accessed by their users.
Solution
Applied’s team of programmers and software development professionals worked with Bobcat to develop a custom online library accessible by users around the world. A two-sided approach was used to handle both the indexing and the presentation of the product manuals. Each day an automated program scanned through the thousands of product manuals that were in the archives and pushed all relevant data into an easy-to-search database. The navigation side of the solution was accomplished with a secure website that separated the immense volume of information with an easily navigated and searchable interface. The website administrators had the ability to easily customize the appearance of function of the website. This solution has since been expanded to the customer’s global operations, and also expanded to a mini-application that runs on a USB key for a more portable version of the product manual library.
