What makes PCG's .NET development different from a larger software firm?

  • Business analysis before architecture. PCG does not propose a .NET architecture until the business problem is fully understood. The analysis phase covers business operations and current systems before any architecture decision is made. Technical infrastructure is mapped as part of that phase. Most .NET development firms start with a technology recommendation. PCG starts with the operational problem.
  • Direct access to the senior developer building your system. Allison and the PCG development team are directly accessible throughout every engagement. There are no account managers, project coordinators, or offshore teams inserting distance between you and the people writing the code. The developer who designed the architecture is the one you call when you have a question.
  • Industry experience that reduces specification time. PCG has documented .NET project history across healthcare, environmental compliance, manufacturing, fleet management, and financial services. That domain knowledge means PCG recognizes the compliance requirements and operational patterns of your industry without requiring weeks of discovery that a generalist team needs to get up to speed.
  • Fixed-price engagements with defined outputs. No open-ended hourly .NET development engagements that expand without a ceiling. PCG provides a fixed-price estimate after requirements analysis. Scope additions during development are handled through a defined change order process with explicit cost and timeline impact before any out-of-scope work begins.
  • Full source code and documentation at delivery. Every PCG .NET project delivers complete source code ownership and full schema documentation. Architecture notes and operational documentation are included. No license fees. No dependency on PCG for continued access to or modification of the application.

Frequently Asked Questions

PCG builds all new .NET applications on .NET Core 8, the current long-term support release as of 2026. For organizations running older .NET Framework applications that need maintenance or migration, PCG handles those engagements as well, with a code audit and migration assessment before recommending the path forward.
PCG has documented .NET project history across healthcare and medical scheduling, environmental compliance and pesticide licensing, construction estimating and project management, technical publishing, fleet management and fueling systems, financial services reporting, nonprofit management, transportation logistics, and manufacturing operations.
Yes. PCG builds .NET applications with direct integrations to QuickBooks, Sage, Microsoft Dynamics, and other ERP and accounting platforms through their native APIs or database connections. The integration scope is defined during the requirements phase and built as part of the .NET application rather than through a third-party middleware layer.
FireFlight Data System is PCG's proprietary modular application platform built on .NET Core 8 with SQL Server. It provides pre-built infrastructure for authentication, role-based access control, and audit logging. The platform also includes modular page architecture and AI natural language reporting. Staff type plain-English questions against live operational data and receive immediate answers without writing SQL or waiting for pre-built reports.
Every .NET project is scoped individually based on requirements and integration complexity. PCG provides a fixed-price estimate after a free consultation and requirements analysis session. Schedule a free 30-minute consultation at phxconsultants.com and PCG will assess your project and provide a realistic scope and timeline before any commitment is made.
Yes. PCG provides long-term support covering emergency response, functional modifications, performance tuning, security reviews, and compatibility checks before major infrastructure updates. Support is provided by the same developers who built the application.
