History
Computer Aid, Inc. was founded in 1981 as an IT consulting business.[1][4]
In 2004, Computer Aid began working with the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture (PDA) to "design, develop, and implement the Pennsylvania Animal Health Emergency Reporting Diagnostic System (PAHERDS)."[5] In 2005, Computer Aid again worked with the PDA to develop what would become USALIMS, and in 2006 they developed USAPlants, a computer application for agriculture management, for the PDA.[5][1] The PDA would later go on to create the Animal Health Information Management Consortium (AHIMC) to share that software with other state agencies.[1] Ultimately, the State donated all these software applications to the National Agribusiness Technology Center, which made the software available under the integrated AgraGuard platform for free to state and local governments.[2][6]
Computer Aid continues to work with the NATC as a software implementer of its originally developed software offerings.[2][3]
