Project Summary

Forix developed a ground-up mobile and web platform for Fuel Cloud, building iOS and Android applications and collaborating on the web interface and wireframes. The team of six to seven developers delivered a cloud-backed system for fuel tracking and tank monitoring; the work was showcased at the Western Petroleum Marketers Association where the demo handled several hundred live transactions without issue. Forix managed timelines tightly, maintained a fixed-price engagement with limited T&M addendums, and provided ongoing support for launch and future strategy.

Key Challenges

  • Needed development resources for the project.

Project Deliverables

  • Wireframes
  • Web and application interfaces
  • Full iOS and Android mobile applications
  • Documentation and training materials

Project Solution

Forix collaborated on wireframes and jointly designed the look-and-feel of the web and mobile interfaces, then developed the full functionality of the application as a ground-up build. The engagement included development for both iOS and Android, weekly meetings and regular interactions with project managers and developers, use of Basecamp for project tracking, and delivery of documentation and training materials as part of the rollout.

Project Outcome

  • Showcased demo at the Western Petroleum Marketers Association and handled several hundred live transactions without issues
  • Received strong positive feedback for the web interface and cloud platform
