Project Summary

Experion developed an initial Android app for transport delivery management and expanded the product line with additional Android applications (including a scanning app and LPG-specific app) that added features like photo capture, vehicle validation, defect recording and geofence-based automation. The apps are used widely across the client’s Australian and New Zealand transport customers and have supported the client's competitive growth in the market.

Key Challenges

Need to build Android capability rather than rely on iOS-only solutions
Integrate mobility data flow (arrival/departure times, quantities, proof of delivery)
Address initial stability and UAT bug-fix delays
Communication gaps that can slow bug resolution

Project Deliverables

Android mobile apps
Scanning app for depot manifest and tracking
Geofence-based arrival/departure automation
Iterative versioned releases and ongoing updates

Project Solution

Experion developed the Android application suite from initial basic pickup/delivery recording to multiple iterations adding photo capture, vehicle validation, driver defect reporting and geofence-triggered automatic arrivals/departures. They also developed a dedicated scanning app for depot manifest processing targeted to specific devices. The engagement followed an iterative/agile approach with the client providing designs and Experion implementing stable releases and ongoing updates (currently on version 5).

Project Outcome

Complex, stable apps adopted by many Australian and New Zealand transport providers
Improved operational capabilities (photo capture, vehicle validation, defect tracking, scanning workflows)
Helped the client gain competitive advantage and plan for market expansion
Regular releases and project plans delivered, though some UAT bug fixes were slower
