The first 5 weeks of the Tripperpas project was completed on-site at Motorola's main campus in Chicago.
During this period Nicolai was introduced to the team, and designed the Tripperpas (NL)
Customer Service Center GUI in addition to the design and documentation of standard GUI requirements
and proposed layout.
At Spinner Software's office, the project was completed with the design and prototyping of a standard
distribution (.exe) solution of CSC software, using Visual Basic. Then Nicolai proposed a solution
around Motorola's problem with using a VPN solution, and Spinner Software designed and prototyped a
solution using ActiveX forms/components and ASP scripts.
In addition to being the project watchdog, Nicolai also recommended and provided the initial contact
with Dutch network / E-Commerce solution providers.
