Built for the way
real businesses work.

More than 4 decades of Michael Kintner’s practical technology work with clients and organizations represented below—across field operations, media, manufacturing, engineering, small business systems, data workflows, and support tools.

EXPERIENCE IN PRACTICE / 01

Built from decades
inside real operations.

The strongest work happens when technology is designed around the people, paperwork, machines, customers, and handoffs that already run the business.

Software shaped around the work

Tools for quoting, scheduling, documenting, invoicing, reporting, support, and customer follow-up without forcing the business to start over.

Comfort with real-world operations

Experience around job sites, shop floors, engineering teams, service desks, legacy systems, and deadlines where downtime has a cost.

Automation without the theater

Dashboards, data workflows, integrations, and AI-assisted processes built to remove friction from actual business work.

THE COMPANY WE KEEP / 02

Trusted across industries.

The reference image below records clients and organizations Michael Kintner has worked with over the past four decades. The work has included software, automation, technology training, 360° camera and imaging systems, and virtual reality—always with the goal of making the work clearer and more useful.

WHO WE HELP / 03

Technology that fits
the way work happens.

We work best with organizations that have real workflows, legacy systems, field realities, hand-built spreadsheets, customer paperwork, and data that has outgrown the way it is being managed.

Construction & Trades

Contractors, tow operators, field crews, and trade professionals managing estimates, job records, dispatch, photos, and customer paperwork.

Manufacturing & Engineering

Production facilities, CNC/CAD/CAM operations, and engineering teams that need automation, reporting, and better coordination between the shop and the office.

Finance & Banking Support

Community banks and financial service teams looking for secure document handling, fraud awareness, and practical internal workflow support.

Small & Mid-Size Business

Owner-led businesses that have outgrown spreadsheets, paper forms, and disconnected tools but still need software that fits how people already work.

Education & Training

Colleges, workforce development programs, and organizations that need practical technical education, STEM mentorship, or internal learning tools.

Technology & SaaS

Startups and established software companies needing MVP builds, platform improvements, integrations, dashboards, or AI features with a clear business purpose.

REPRESENTATIVE OUTCOMES / 04

Understand the operation.
Simplify the handoffs.

Selected work showing the same pattern: understand the operation, simplify the handoffs, and build tools people can actually use. That experience continues in current CNERD projects such as meJobSiteLog, CNerd Forge, CueSAGE, TowTruckCenter, meScanner, meAudioEditor, AppMediaForge, meVidiReview, meYouTubeDownloader, and YouTube Collector.

Energy & Manufacturing

Challenge: A global energy engineering firm needed CAD/CAM automation and project tools that could coordinate machining, engineering, accounting, and delivery across multiple divisions.
Approach: We built software around the existing engineering process, connecting CAD workflows, CNC toolpath generation, project planning, and accounting instead of treating each department as a separate island.
Result: A multi-million-dollar engineering project stayed on track, with cleaner coordination between technical teams and the business side of the operation.

Oil & Gas

Challenge: A refining operation needed stronger network infrastructure and a path away from manual operational processes that were slowing the team down.
Approach: We modernized core infrastructure, built custom automation for operational workflows, and provided technical consulting tied directly to production goals.
Result: The operation gained more reliable systems, less manual handoff, and a technology base that better supported day-to-day production work.

Construction & Field Operations

Challenge: Contractors and field teams needed a practical way to manage estimates, document jobs, capture photos, communicate with customers, and keep records without paper trails.
Approach: We designed and built meJobSiteLog as a cross-platform job tracking system with estimate-to-invoice workflows, GPS-tagged photos, offline mobile access, and customer-facing portals.
Result: Field documentation, approvals, invoicing, and customer communication can happen from one platform instead of being scattered across notebooks, phones, texts, and spreadsheets.

Mobile Document Workflows

Challenge: Field professionals handling permits, contracts, and inspections needed a fast way to scan, sign, verify, and share documents without returning to the office.
Approach: We built meScanner — an iOS document scanner with OCR, GEO-tagged digital signatures, SHA256 integrity verification, and cloud backup to iCloud, Google Drive, and Dropbox.
Result: Paperwork can be captured, signed, verified, and shared on-site, replacing the slow print-sign-scan cycle with a mobile workflow.
