Overview

The client, a well-established engineering firm with expertise in project design, engineering surveys, geological surveys and planning, construction and construction control, and aerial surveys, partnered with JetRuby Agency to develop an application. This application was designed to automate tasks related to technical drawings, documentation, and calculation design for projects involving subsurface materials, aiming to significantly reduce task completion time and enhance team efficiency.

Project Objectives

The client had set forth several primary objectives to advance its operations.

By implementing automation in routine processes, the company aimed to significantly cut down on the time required to complete project tasks, streamlining workflows and accelerating timelines.

A key goal was to enhance the precision of project documentation. This involved reducing the risk of errors in calculations and drawings, thereby ensuring higher quality and reliability in their engineering outputs.

Additionally, the client sought to elevate employee productivity by enabling staff to focus on more complex and creative tasks. By automating simpler tasks, employees could devote more time and energy to innovative and challenging aspects of projects.

The company aimed to improve overall project management and coordination. This involved fostering better collaboration among different teams and departments, ensuring smoother and more efficient project execution.

Another objective was to create a system that could easily adapt to a variety of project types. The system needed to be scalable to accommodate the company’s growth, allowing for seamless expansion and adaptability in handling diverse projects.

During collaborative discussions, our team and the client agreed on the main goal – to embark on an advanced development initiative and drastically reduce project completion times for the company client. The application had to be specifically designed for deployment within a team of up to 400 members within the company’s geographical location. It was not meant for international use. The application concept included the capacity to create a comprehensive technical design for mining operation development. Furthermore, the app was designed to have the capability to incorporate new forms of computation and project components, personalize connections between sections, and create new rules for changes in the project.

Tech stack

Node.js and React were used for the development of the product. The application included a user-friendly interface with role-based access, allowing different levels of functionality based on user roles. Comprehensive strategies were developed to address potential integration complexities, user adaptation challenges, and project scope management.

A detailed plan for ongoing system development and implementation was created.

Key elements for the project's success were as follows

Clearly defined project objectives

Understanding the client company's needs and expectations enabled the development of a system that best met their requirements.

Detailed development plan

A structured development plan with clearly defined milestones and checkpoints ensured the project was successfully delivered on schedule and budget.

System flexibility

The system was designed to be adaptable to different types of projects and changing requirements, allowing the company to effectively use it in its work.

Risk assessment and mitigation strategies

Detailed risk assessment and development of mitigation strategies helped to avoid potential problems and ensure successful implementation of the system.

User support and training

Providing training and support to users ensured successful adaptation to the new system and its effective use.

Updates and Technical Support

Regular system updates and technical support are offered to keep the system up-to-date and satisfy the changing needs of the company.

Business outcomes

After the implementation of the application, the client company recorded the following process improvements:

Reduction of time for project fulfillment

Project task completion time decreased by an average of 40% due to automating routine processes and enhancing coordination between teams. Using pre-made templates and automated computations has cut down the time needed to create project documentation by 50%.

Enhanced precision in computation

Built-in data checking and validation functions have resulted in a 30% reduction in the number of errors in calculations and drawings. Increased calculation accuracy led to a 25% reduction in corrections and revisions.

Increased team productivity

By giving employees more time to concentrate on the more intricate and creative aspects of their work, routine tasks resulted in a 35% increase in productivity. Better resource management and coordination allowed the team to finish 20% more projects.

Improved project management

The enhanced visibility of all project milestones and the real-time progress tracking enabled a 45% increase in project management efficiency. Management decision-making time decreased by thirty percent due to the presence of precise and current information.

Flexibility and scalability

The company's flexibility increased by 25% as a result of the project system's ease of adaptation to new project types. The ability to scale the system as the company grows has increased the volume of work performed by 40% without significant additional costs.

The project showed how the client company’s operations could be significantly improved by automating repetitive tasks, improving project management, increasing team productivity, and improving calculation accuracy. Well-defined objectives, a comprehensive development plan, a flexible system, and effective user support all contributed to this success. The project’s success is evidence of its effectiveness and applicability in the field of mineral deposit design and development.
