Windows Phone 8 was the platform of choice for this application that supported their 400+ mobile workforce.

A large amount of client code was re-used from the original mobile app, along with the entire back end.

Highlights…

  • Chauffeurs could notify central dispatch that they were awake and ready for work. Before this feature dispatchers would call chauffeurs on the phone to validate that they were ready and would make their first pickup of the day. This saved thousands of man-hours a year.
  • Was done using cross platform development patterns to allow other mobile platforms to be implemented. The goal of using Xamarin to create an IOS an Android app was taken into consideration way up front to cut down on overall cost of bringing up these 2 platforms at a later date.

Technologies… Windows Phone 8, c#, WCF, PCL

We worked extensively with the EmpireCLS executive team to help define the business model.  We were then able to implement the entire application in around 9 months; website, accounting, mobile app, and the on boarding of 400+ affiliate partners.

The project was a success as far as the partner relationships were concerned.  There were many challenges with getting customer adoption so it was put on hold indefinitely.

System highlights… web UX for creating rating structures, extensible rating API, cross platform mobile app with code reuse from back end, extensible excel import framework for bulk loading rating structures.

Technologies… C#, SQL Server, asp.net MVC, asp.net Web API, Xamarin.
