PlanTech, (Construction Project Management software Case Study) a well-established US based construction company with huge projects, needed an improvement of their business processes and better optimization of their resources. As their business expanded, projects continuously got delayed which resulted in lawsuits by unhappy clients. We faced a variety of challenges to develop niche technological solutions for a company involved in the construction industry.
Challenge to Design
Customization for the Layman
Problem
Large scale construction projects involve different stakeholders from owner, labourer, project manager etc.
1
Every stakeholder had different responsibilities but the project needed synchronization
2
Both foremen and the construction labor were not very technologically savvy and were used to offline management on paper
Solution
We designed separate web and mobile applications for foremen i.e. project managers and for construction staff (labourers).
The applications has synchronized features such as calendar, attendance etc. that were updated real time
Simple user interface for the layman was developed after many iterations and approval from the client.
Challenge to Optimize
Improving the Efficiency
Problem
How to manage and control large scale construction projects is itself a big challenge.
All Construction work stopped due to delay by one department
Example
If there is no wood, then the project might be halted even if cement is available.
Inter-department communication took time which caused bottle neck delays.
Example
Painting team can’t work unless the construction team announces that their work is complete.
Solution
We developed a dedicated central project management panel. The purpose was to have a centralised system update where all team leaders from different departments could update on their tasks at work.
Centralised panels for status updates for various processes and aspects of the project.
Example
Status of purchase of bricks
Reduced bottle-neck delays by 90%
Real Time update for all the tasks.
We researched and went through the case studies of various large scale and successful construction projects from all over the world, integrated their processes in our designs and finally developed an application for PlanTech that improved the efficiency of a construction project management. We reduced their bottle-neck delays by 90% and enabled them to deliver projects on time.

Native Milk always had to deal with route optimization to maximize profit and frequent changing of delivery boys. While this was easily manageable manually in offline business, it was a big headache when their business went digital.
Solution
We developed a mobile application for the drivers with route optimization. The total delivery area is divided into various routes and orders are sorted according to different routes. A driver is then assigned a single route.

Synopsis
We needed a fast technology to synchronize the source data to our system.
We had to run our programs real time during the horse race.
We ran our calculations on the given data, but by the time we generated an analysis of the probable winner, the market trends and positions of the race horses altered so our result had no value.
Solution
We used the Node JS as it as an open-sourced JavaScript run-time environment that has the fastest libraries.
The reason behind using node.js is that we were able to establish a swift and persistent connection between betfair and our algorithm.
We could run our program with race data and generate results using the latest trends up-to-the-second with more than 99 % of the source data matching with our index.

Synopsis
The client was clear with their needs but was not tech savvy enough to state specific requirements.
In GetIt the driver and vendor are treated as separate entities unlike a regular taxi application where such division does not exist.
Solution
We initiated brainstorming sessions with the client to plan out the project.
We built application functionality to optimize the process while simultaneously taking all stakeholders into account.

Technology
Synopsis
The client had an understanding of NFC but they had no idea of how the technology behind NFC works.
The client needed a secure platform as they wanted to keep the customer data secured.
Solution
We did a knowledge transfer with the client and explained the technology behind NFC and QR code.
We undertook a variety of security measures to prevent any leakage of user data.
