Project Summary

Using provided internal designs and joint technical planning sessions, Ralabs developed a tenant-to-corporation communications web app. The vendor implemented the backend with Ruby on Rails and the frontend with React and Angular, assigned a five-person team, and handled development and deployment. The solution is in pilot with one client covering 1,000 houses and is functioning as expected.

Key Challenges

Realize a concept that improves communication between housing corporations and their tenants
Determine an appropriate technical approach, timeline, and staffing to deliver the platform

Project Deliverables
