Farming management software project for smart agriculture

Smart agriculture needs special expertise in product development. A farming management software system, using the latest software tools

With the created project management application, the client improved overall business indicators, centralizing all crucial data.

Social impact is one of our core values. Working on projects that reflect our values is a privilege. This is the case with this project, a
cloud-native application for an NGO that helps other worldwide NGOs prosper in the agriculture sector.

Our colleagues from the custom enterprise software development department of AROBS worked on this project. 

Business challenge of the farming management project

Our client needed consultancy in order to improve the outdated management software system. So, we challenged ourselves towards understanding the requirements of the business. With the help of their business analyst, everything fell into place, communication improved, and the previous application was entirely re-coded.

The second challenge was to move the built application to the latest technologies.

The final challenge was to integrate a timesheet application for accounting purposes, very useful for farming management.

AROBS Approach

The client was open to new ideas, so we approached them with suggestions for improvement. Afterwards we negotiated the implementation time, offering different deployment solutions, highlighting the pros and cons of each in order to facilitate the decision-making process based on our expertise.
