Needs Statement  Large companies have many layers of corporate hierarchy.  Financial and data records are sometimes conflicting between various layers/entities.  Accurate and comprehensive company records are needed.  There is a need for “Data Mastering”: It’s like digitally re-mastering an audio CD or a movie to eliminate glitches and errors. (Companies are like Ogres Onions) Master Copy

PROJECT OBJECTIVE  Develop an automated data harvesting tool to collect FDIC and FFIEC records from government websites.  Develop a database model to store the records  Design a GUI to make them accessible to accountants and analysts for mastering  The end result is to save money & ensure quality data for Kingland Systems clients.
