Application Requirements
The project required design, development, and deployment of two SaaS based web products. A comprehensive badging solution that provides intuitive interface for customers and sub-contractors to create and print single or double sided badges. And another product that is used for Timekeeping and Reporting for work force. Both the web products are required to be deployed in cloud where customers will have their own instances and databases.
The Business Case Challenge
The badging solution requirements needed badge design, printing on single and both side variants. A badge has logo, photo, text fields and bar code into it. The application is required to provide a drag and drop easy to design interface for users to design the badges, and then print it according to the dimensions they require for the badges. Along with it, there are privileges based badge design rendering, customer and sub-contractor based N-tier privilege and badge rendering features.

The timekeeping and reporting product has both an web and android application working in tandem to bar code scan employees reporting hours. The application captures records of in and out time, report weekly and monthly work hours, cumulative site and company wide reports for work force accounting purpose. Android app also does the scanning of the badges for in and out time, and relays the information to the web back-end.
OdiTek’s Solution
This project was approached with a 4 member dedicated ODC team for the customer, where monthly sprint plans were made and based on customer priorities, features were rolled out to the live portal. Robustness of the application platform was key, hence an entire sprint was dedicated for database and application architecture where high availability and scalability demands were visualized and added to the SaaS solution architecture.
