Mobility Strategy Consulting: View Mobility from a New Perspective
We engage with you to get a clear understanding of your existing business processes and roadmap. They come equipped to help you make the key changes to leverage the power of mobile technology. Our engagements on mobile technology strategy and architecture typically help you with the following challenges:

• Analyze legacy processes and scenarios, in order to leverage mobility and achieve efficiency and cost-savings,

• ROI and mobility roadmap: Assess specific products and solutions from various vendors and assist with their RFI to these vendors.

• Mobile client architecture choice: Choose the right type of client application- native, hybrid or web application.

• Backend integration: Integrating mobile applications with backend systems.

• Integration of new concepts to stay ahead: Recommend the deployment of new and emerging ideas like social media, context aware location services and augmented reality.

 

 

User Experience: Design and Testing
User experience is the key driver of mobile adoption and ultimately determines the application’s success. We work along with you in the design and emerge a superior usable application design,

Mobile Application Development and Maintenance
Our strength in architecture and strategy leads to a methodology that is focused on choosing the right type of development approach for a particular engagement. We follow two distinct approaches toward application development:

• Rich-client thin-client architecture approach native applications: This unique approach keeps the client code on the devices as small as possible to provide excellent user experience on the device, leveraging the unique native features of each platform and achieving easy portability between platforms.

• HTML5 Native Hybrid architecture for broad-based applications: Mobile web technologies like HTML5 augmented by a hybrid approach to take full advantage of the device features allow a single code base across multiple platforms while providing a great user experience.

 

Integration with Mobile Advertisement Network 
Our engagements in mobility have included projects, which required integration to mobile advertisement networks in the mobile applications built by Blackbucks.

 

Mobile Analytics

We provide mobile application analytics using in-device and middleware-based capabilities to capture data. The capability can be broadly classified into two major categories:

• Application usage based on context (time of the day, location), device type and platform: Tracking the application usage around certain key events is required by many customers to determine the uptake of certain marketing promotions and news affecting the business.

• Application access patterns to determine the frequently used functionalities and determine the user behavior: We have several components built within the application to determine the amount of time users spends on a screen to complete their desired tasks.

 

The following can be tracked:

• Application usage

• Number of users connected at any time

• User behavior and access patterns

• Location and device details

• System alerts

 

Case Study

Election Commissioner Chennai

 

• Developed a mobile solution for Election Commission, Chennai

• Deployed to be used by lakhs of voters in Tamilnadu

• Worked with most confidential data from the Government,

 

Technologies Used

• Android SDK

• Integrated to access huge databases of the election commission on SQL Server

• Integrated with Google maps for route

• Implemented number of security constraints

 

Placing Polling station at fingertips! The app idea is to connect citizens to the polling booth and allow the community to become more involved.

• The app could show all the polling booths on Google maps.

• Link each voter with the polling booth they are assigned to.

• Show the route from the voter’s current location to the polling booth.

• Provided answers to Frequently Asked Questions

• Provided details of the family voter ids.

 

Apart from citizens, election officers, police departments as well as other law enforcement agencies can use the app to provide better service to voters.

The information we were provided for developing the app is:

• List of all the polling booths and addresses.

• List of all voters, family details and their polling booths

There is a plan to extend usage of the app to promote fair polling, put more information on to the app like polling statistics and results, after polling.

The project was much appreciated by the Government.
