About
Aufrance Associates
In
1992, the husband-and-wife software developers Tom and
Mary Kay Aufrance decided to go out on a limb and start
their own software design and consulting company. So,
Aufrance Associates was born and served corporate and
government clients developing software for energy conservation,
health care and education systems. Clents included Hewlett-Packard,
Tacoma Public Utilities, the State of California Dept.
of Education, Pacific Gas and Electric, Group Health
Cooperative and many more clients for custom-built software.
When
the Internet became a big hit, this already successful
husband and wife team turned their focus to software
applications for Web servers. Aufrance Associates early
Internet innovations
include many "firsts." The Aufrances created
the first fully integrated system for Internet providers
to run their business and provide applications for their
customers. Another of the Aufrances' "firsts"
included the development of the first Internet based
real estate multiple listing service, Real Estate Internet
(REI). REI PLUS gave Aufrance Associates the distinction
of being the first real estate MLS system in use in
the Phillipines, and it is still in use worldwide.
Today,
Aufrance Associates applications are all offered as
Web hosting services, and Tom and Mary Kay have also
turned their attention toward running their own applications
for their own Web stores, saying, "We decided our
customers were having all the fun!"
Aufrance
Associates has remained a small company on purpose!
Tom and Mary Kay moved
their operations and home to Carson City, Nevada and
enjoy living and working in the foothills of the Sierra
Nevada Mountains just down the hill from Lake Tahoe.
Tom Aufrance
sums up his company's uniqueness, "When most Web
companies were chasing after new paradigms and
going public, we were busy applying our no-nonsense
expertise in database applications to building our small
sustainable operation."
Thank you for
your interest in in Aufrance Associates.
