Project Summary

Unified Infotech developed the technical components of a contractor management system per client-provided designs, building a front-end web app, Android app, APIs, and AWS-hosted MySQL integrations. They provided input on design, conducted system and user testing, and managed their IT resources. The vendor delivered a high-quality product with effective communication and project management, though the client did not move the solution to production after a short pilot. The client provides alerting services across Australia and New Zealand.
