Exolgan needed to include a series of functionalities that would support the management of departments such as Human Resources through the inclusion of job search portals, as well as better understand its internal clients through the creation and analysis of satisfaction surveys. In turn, we included the maintenance of applications that allow external clients to understand issues related to the service provided by the company, such as the current exchange rate for the payment of services, merchandise arrivals and departures, seal control, among others.
We formed a multidisciplinary team which, based on the client’s requirements, launched the first phase of the project, including the design and general implementation of the portal; this included tasks for user experience and design prototyping for subsequent development.
Features that allowed internal job posting were included, as well as internal satisfaction surveys. At a more commercial level, we needed to include applications that would allow for decentralized Content Management, including management control of (legal) contracts with version control.
For the second phase, related to requirements for external clients, the maintenance and migration of Java legacy query applications was started, as well as those in Handheld APEX. All of this was done while providing a monitoring and control service based on PMI, maximizing risk control and minimizing the level of uncertainty.
Effective commissioning of the corporate and institutional website and applications. This allowed us to improve the internal customer experience, as well as the management of different departments within the company.
Regarding the applications for the management of functionalities such as exchange rate, arrivals and departures and seal control, the effective updating and migration of these was achieved, which allowed us to improve the service offered to external clients.

This portal should have intuitive navigation and a friendly interface, allowing all users to find the required information quickly, without any prior guidance.
GBM Casa de Bolsa needed its portal to display information mainly on the financial market, as well as data related to the company and its products. On the other hand, it had to have a VIP portal, where registered users (clients, analysts and administrators) could log in using username and password credentials, in order to carry out different operations within the platform.
An agile and autonomous team was formed that started the development of the corporate portal and VIP portal through the Sharepoint tool, this would include a series of functionalities that would present the information in an attractive way for users, such as: charts and information grids, carousels of information and varied content, among others. In turn, both portals will allow for the viewing and managing content in relation to Asset Management, Private Banking, Mutual Funds, Institutional Investment., Record Keeping, Global Custodian, Prime Broker, and other areas of general interest.

Users were also assigned inboxes that allowed them to view and apply a treatment to each case. Expiration times were also set for each message, in order to minimize the detected delays.

The marketed services focus on those that fully address the needs of home improvement, as well as the supply of products and services for construction companies and professionals.

Industry: Healthcare.
Client: Roemmers.
Service: Custom Software Development.
Engagement Model: Turnkey Projects.
Technologies: Phone-Gap, Objective C.
Laboratorios Roemmers is mainly focused on developing, manufacturing and selling medicinal specialties aimed at treating disorders of the cardiovascular digestive and respiratory systems, as well as psychiatric-neurological, rheumatological and infectious diseases, among others.
A strong point in the management of Laboratorios Roemmers is its sales force and its outstanding customer service, which together result in millions of units sold throughout the country to different healthcare entities.
For this, the lab had a series of applications and technology platforms aimed at supporting commercial management. The lab needed to enhance these tools, with a mobile application that would add a series of features to optimize the management of the commercial team, thus improving sales and company results.
.
Roemmers needed to improve its commercial management by including a series of improvements to its Commercial Management application, making it easier for the team to carry out tasks such as placing orders and providing follow-up for clients, as well as delivering better analytics that would allow them to know which products and clients needed development in order to achieve milestones. As sales representatives carry out a dynamic task and need to be on the move while visiting clients, they needed a mobile solution available on different devices across different platforms, capable of updating in real-time and operating at low Internet speeds.
Taking into consideration the client’s needs, a hybrid language application was developed using Phonegap, available for iOS, Android, Blackberry, Windows Phone and Windows 8 devices. The application had to work off-line, and then synchronize information.
The required features included authenticating sales representatives, analyzing clients and commercial visits, placing orders, transfers and offers, as well as commercial planning, among other highly required functionalities.
To achieve this, a work plan was developed with stages ranging from planning to commissioning the application, including technical documents and functional specifications.
Thanks to a clear definition of the project’s milestones, we were able to include features to support and optimize the client’s order registration process, as well as the validation of credentials and synchronization of different applications used by the team.
Key elements such as improving user experience and general usability increased the level of internal customer satisfaction, as well as the adoption rate, while the possibility of ordering offline made it easier for the company to keep a more accurate record of all customer requests.
