Overview
CrewCord is a real time team collaboration and project management platform developed by Celestial Systems Inc. Looking at the current scenario and sudden change in work culture, it has now become necessary to gain a 360-degree view of where things stand. The idea behind was to create a virtual work hub, where the managers can assess the contribution as well as the availability of resources in a project. Overall, it is a cohesive solution for all internal teams to plan, collaborate, organize, and deliver projects on time & on point.
Dissecting Problem
Business Requirement
- Design a mobile application with 3 different features – employee monitoring, project management and productivity analysis
- Develop an employee time monitoring system
- Create a task management platform for the managers to assign tasks to team members
- Develop an application that provides a wholistic view of ongoing projects and time spent
- Build a virtual company notice board
Challenges
“The challenge was to design and build a mobile application for project management, that was less expensive and more usable than the existing applications in the market.”
- TASK MANAGEMENT SYSTEM : Developed a system where the individual contributors (team members) can independently add their task and track their contribution in a project. The managers can manage and forecast time for other projects using this member data.
- NOTICE BOARD FEATURE : The application also features a company notice board wherein the employees can post relevant data they want to share with the team.
- LEAVE TRACKER SYSTEM : We also customized an efficient leave tracker system which helps to apply leaves and share availability to improve the workflow.
The Architecture Phase
CrewCord is a SaaS application. We have created an architecture which is maintainable and easy to scale horizontally in terms of features. Each feature is independent and can be plugged in or out as per the requirement. This enables the product to be customized to any organization’s requirement.
