Project Summary
Codal supplied and managed a team of engineers to build a data-driven business intelligence web portal for school transportation using an AngularJS frontend and a Python/Django backend. The vendor used Agile practices, met a tight schedule for the initial release, and continued supporting the platform on retainer.
Key Challenges
- Develop a national business intelligence portal for school districts across the US and Canada
- Present complex analytics in an accessible starter kit for non-technical transportation directors
- Meet a tight timeframe and short deadline
Project Deliverables
- Custom web portal / business intelligence platform
- AngularJS/HTML5/CSS3 frontend
- Python/Django backend
- APIs for integration with other providers
- Dashboards with ~40 elements and ~60 data points
- Modular 'LEGO-like' modules released incrementally
Project Solution
Codal integrated the client's analytics into a custom web portal, building an AngularJS/HTML5/CSS3 frontend and a Python/Django backend and delivering APIs for third-party integration. The team used Agile practices and an incremental, modular release plan (a new module approximately every 10 weeks), producing a starter kit of about 60 data points and ~40 dashboard elements and enabling white-labeling for other industries.
Project Outcome
- Adopted by 4 U.S. states, 2 Canadian provinces, and one Middle Eastern country.
- Platform launched Nov. 6, 2016 after a 5-month build; delivered on time and within budget.
- Ongoing retainer engagement and additional modular expansion planned.
