Overview

Our client is a big construction materials supplier. Asking how to calculate the amount of materials needed for certain projects, the client turned to Lisod. Their portfolio is application development, and data integration services. The Lisod team is proud to exploit advanced technologies to optimize the platform.

 

      Services: Discovery phase, Mobile app development, UI/UX design, Testing, DevOps Support

 

      Industry: Construction

 

      Location: Japan

 

Business Context

Normally, calculating materials to build a project is done by humans and errors often occur. Our customer asked Lisod to create an application that integrates all material information and calculation formulas to be able to produce construction costs with just a few simple information inputs.

 

Key challenge

      – Integration of material and formulation information on the platform

      – Tailor a complex service for client requests

      – Integrates multiple requests without reducing app performance

      – Smart interface, easy to use

 

Work Approach     

      1. SCRUM approach

SCRUM assures quality, as well as delivering iterations quickly, moving on SDLC fast. That’s how we give end customers what they want with two-week sprints and demos of each feature that our client’s QAs and QCs closely watch.

 

      2. Flexible frameworks

We needed our service to respond to system actions with the smallest possible penalty in effort, time, cost, and performance. We achieved this using the most flexible frameworks and libraries. This allowed us to manage features and functionality dynamically yet keep the focus on desirable outcomes and clients’ business goals.

 

      3. Close cooperation with the client

Collaboration means sharing the same values, approaches, transparency, trust, and responsibility. All that allows us to build a robust partnership. Close cooperation with an in-house team allows us to stay in context and feel like part of the client’s crew, which leads to splendid results.

 

      4. Development under the ISO guidance

To ensure robust security and high-quality deliverables, Lisod followed ISO guidance during the development process. We adhered to ISO standards, such as ISO 27001 for information security and ISO 9001 for quality management. By incorporating security and quality assurance practices, such as regular code reviews, vulnerability assessments, and penetration testing, Lisod ensured that the developed solutions met the highest standards of security and quality.
