Abstract

RoadSpace Mobile & Web platform is specifically designed as a booking management product for space on highway where roadworks are taking place. This platform is integral part of highway construction facilitating complete co-ordination between highway workers, project managers and control room across different projects. Client wanted to have a easy to use Android mobile application for highway workers, a robust admin panel for control room and enterprise architecture – designed to scale.

UI/UX was one of the most important aspect of this project since we have to ensure that the end users have minimal learning curve on how to use this software as they would be mostly non-tech savvy users.

CMARIX has designed and developed the Microsoft DotNet core based web application for control room admin, super admin and Native Android mobile application for road workers from where they can manage their bookings for construction services according to their requirement and timeline. Road worker and control room admin can have a real time chat using the mobile and web application respectively. Control room admin and super admin can see the real time location of the road worker which have been assigned to particular bookings.
