Business Cases

Managing a professional association is a complex task. It usually involves people, departments, legislation, standards and processes. This is the case of a lawyer’s bar association deciding to become a modern and more efficient institution by employing innovative software solutions and tools. The main goal is to design and implement an integrated information system tailored to the needs of the organisation while ensuring an efficient cost and delivery time. First we start to gather the business requirements by facing the customer. The relevant requirements are included in the SOW document which helps to provide a consistent project description. Next we meet the customer to propose various approaches and align the expectations. As the project complexity is high, setting priorities is relevant for the planning and estimation phase. Once the project estimation is agreed with the customer we start the software development process. Agile methodology is our preferred approach, providing clarity and better control over the project. The main modules included in the solution are: membership management, contribution and tax management, interface with the accounting system, document management and reporting module. Additional business logic and fine tuning become part of a longer term collaboration with the happy customer ensuring high performance, good quality and an updated information system in accordance with the business needs.

Managing a successful logistic and distribution business is a matter of ensuring a fast and efficient service to its customers. The challenge for such a company is to maintain and adapt the ERP to ensure an efficient operation in the field. This is sometimes difficult to ensure using standardised WMS and ERP systems. They usually offer a level of customisation and configuration but are not fully flexible to be adjusted to the specific needs. Our customer is looking to improve his inventory management by employing specific automation and optimising the items’ handling. The solution is a custom made software able to interface the existing ERP and capture specific business operations. The solution is provided in the form of a mobile terminal used by the warehouse operators to perform daily operations and warehouse management much faster than the standard ERP/WMS module.

Our customer runs a heavy equipment renting business in constructions. They want to improve their operation by reducing maintenance costs due to improper usage. In the absence of a real-time monitoring system providing a better customer training is not enough. The proposed solution takes the form of an automated system connected to sensors like vibration, noise and video cameras constantly tracking the usage of the vehicle. Several scenarios are built in the system depending on the vehicle type. In some cases alarms are triggered to the operator depending on vibration level or engine noise. The main idea is to detect abnormal usage based on the embedded AI algorithms. The system uses an EDGE TPU board and provides local and remote connectivity. The operator is immediately notified upon improper use and advice is provided. Everything is video recorded for later analysis.
