2Plus2 has worked as the Port of Oakland’s primary technology partner working in the area of Internet application development since 1998. The Port depends on 2Plus2 to provide system design and development services as well as content management, database development, systems integration, and managed hosting services. The increasing scope and strategic importance of these Internet-based systems shows not only the consistent technology progress being made by the Port, but also underscores the successful track record now established by 2Plus2 Partners.

Campaign Management
2Plus2 designs and develops the Port of Oakland’s award-winning public web site and manages the maintenance of all content and web-based resources present on the site. 2Plus2 works with department directors and managers to plan information rotations and updates that help keep the site’s available information current and topical.

The Port of Oakland has also used 2Plus2 to develop sophisticated web-based application systems. An online business directory, a cargo permit system, a calendar management solution and a mailing list-oriented campaign management system have been developed in recent months to facilitate the Port’s public sector development and local business community support strategies.

2Plus2 Partners is frequently called upon to consult with the Port regarding application system development plans and provides technology management guidelines to the Port as well. Planned for near-term development are significant enhancements to some security management systems and the incorporation of data management tools into the design of prototype data warehouse systems.
