A project management platform’s MVP from scratch in 7 weeks

Project Overview

The platform intends to optimize all processes involved in constructing large-scale industry products. Monitoring KPIs, such as the labor force productivity and the efficiency of the market supply, enables continuous accurate cost and schedule forecasts to completion values and dates.

Why CPEC.ai is important for Project Management:

• The ability to manage interfaces across contractors will remove disputes and support collaboration between contractors during the execution phase.
• The application under development will assist in the entire incoming data flow from multiple sources.
• The alerts are designed to inform key stakeholders of the actions that they must take, such as accurate resource allocation, to avoid adverse impacts on project outcomes.
• More profound ML algorithms will provide additional insights.

Team composition

• 1 Solution Architect
• 3 Python developers

Business Challenge

KITRUM’s first task was to create an MVP for potential clients. The feature set will be negotiated with the customer based on the timeframes. Since usability is essential to the client, the system should be intuitive, with no more than five clicks to get information.

Deadlines

The development of MVP took 7-8 weeks. KITRUM delivered the functioning increment by the end of September.

Features

1. Tools integration

Usually, organizations employ multiple tools for different tasks. Teams have to go through a lengthy process to access each tool. Using this project management software allows for managing activities more effectively. Rather than flipping through multiple files, you can integrate all working tools into a single system. In addition, this method frees up time to work on other projects.

Additional features:

• Project planning: Map your tasks and describe iterations to plan your project properly.
• Continuous updates: Track all materials from conception until completion.
• Task management: Create and assign tasks, set deadlines, and produce status reports.
• Time tracking: Use a project management tool to track time spent on projects and export timesheets.

2. Easy collaboration

Managing a significant project emphasizes the importance of maintaining continual communication to ensure everyone is on the same page. This project management solution facilitates cross-functional cooperation and simplifies teamwork. A person can communicate freely, maximize the sharing of papers and vital information, and track how much work has been completed and how much remains.

Additional features:

• File sharing: Quickly exchange files, papers, and other items with all team members.
• Team communication: Easily communicate with team members and respond to critical queries promptly.
• Customer data sharing: Organize contact information and link projects and bills.
• Ensure that everyone on the team is productive.
