GE Licensing

Project Information

The General Electric Licensing System is a web-based software licensing and activation system.  The goal of this project is to create a convenient and automated system to replace the anachronistic and cumbersome one currently employed by General Electric, Energy Division.  A few drawbacks of the current system include manual activation of all software licenses sold by the division, which in turn incurs overhead in the form of the telephone calls required for activation, and possible data entry mistakes with undesirable results.  All the above inconveniences will be avoided by automating the bulk of the license activation process. In addition GELS is able to generate graphical, statistical reports upon request on a multitude of criteria such as the amount of licenses activated during a given period, and trends in which licenses are most frequently used.
