About Us

At Custom Data Processing, Inc., we have been providing electronic health solutions to federal, state, and local health organizations since 1979. Our focus is on software that makes a difference, which is developed, tested, and implemented by people who make a difference.

This company was founded by Jack Marston, Sr. with a very clear mission:

To provide high-quality public health technology solutions, which assist the delivery of essential services to our state and local communities.

Our highly agile, custom software solutions—built around core system components—are continuously enhanced based on industry trends and client feedback. These solutions have been implemented in more than 1,000 locations throughout the country.

We are proud of the software we create, but we also believe it is only as good as the environment in which it is used. Therefore, we have invested in a world-class data center to host the critical data our clients use. We have put a strong focus on maintaining secure and reliable hosted environments with the infrastructure to support our clients now and as they grow. Much like our software, our data centers are constantly being updated as industry trends emerge. Our central hosting business model is a true, one-stop, turnkey solution.

 

Our Focus

Our specialty is software and support for the public healthcare system. We provide software for environmental health services, public health clinics, the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) and related WIC EBT programs. We provide unparalleled support for these programs, aid them in providing their services, and supply them with innovative ways of utilizing their mission critical data.
