Case Study
A web-based SaaS (software as a service) application providing a vendor database to government agencies, streamlining the procurement process.
For 129 years, the Ontario Good Roads Association – now simply “Good Roads” – has been dedicated to improving municipal roads and associated infrastructure in Ontario. Today, Good Roads has 417 municipal members and 18 First Nations members.
We are problem solvers
We solve complex problems through custom software and app development by optimizing business processes, driving innovation, and helping clients achieve their goals with tailored solutions.
Challenge
Given the current need for technology solutions to facilitate the interactions between public agencies and vendors, Good Roads identified the need for a new tool to connect all stakeholders in the infrastructure technical services field.
Solution
Essential Designs developed the Good Roads Technical Services Portal, intended to be an interactive online SaaS that brings together the manufacturers, distributors, and suppliers of technical services with the municipal and provincial agencies that use them. Agencies can review and approve technical services with confidence, while vendors and suppliers are offered a single point of access for service review for the purpose of obtaining Agency approvals.
The Essential Process
Planning
Strategizing goals, requirements, and timelines to guide development efforts effectively and align stakeholders toward a common vision.
Code
Implementing logical, efficient, and maintainable software solutions based on design specifications using programming languages and best practices.
Wireframing
Creating skeletal outlines of interfaces to visualize layout, functionality, and user flow before advancing to detailed design and development.
Testing
Assessing software functionality, performance, and reliability through systematic examination to identify and resolve defects before deployment.
Design
Crafting aesthetic, intuitive, and functional user interfaces that enhance user experience and fulfill project objectives with creativity and precision.
Deployment
Releasing to production environments, ensuring seamless integration, optimal performance, and no disruption to users and operations.
"..we’ve found that the value they deliver is significantly above everyone else that we deal with"
