Our customer is a world class construction tool and fastening systems provider. Their fastening systems include mechanical and chemical anchors and solutions for upgrading or strengthening concrete constructions.
They wanted software that would help users to find the best solution for their problem and create instructions for problem solving based on their products and methods.
Why did our customer choose us?
We have managed to convince them with our reference list, detailed offer and professional approach.
What kind of solution did we develop at Agito?
We developed program solutions that enabled planning concrete fastening with the help of mechanical or chemical anchors, and for concrete structure reinforcement and upgrading. We successfully integrated third party solutions in anchor calculation routines.
The software enables presentation of existing or new constructions in 3D and 2D.
Wizards and other tools enable simple and clear entry of dimensions, loading, material properties and other properties of the existing or future structure. The solution alerts the user about possible errors and discrepancies when entering data and finally drafts a table of possible solutions.
When making calculations it considers the selected geographical area, method of calculating, safety (legal) standards.
The result of using the application is a report with a calculation/plan in accordance with the chosen standard and installation instructions.
We also included a system of automatic updating, which also updates the data on products portfolio, related compliance certificates, new calculations and methods in addition to the last version of the software code.
What benefits did we bring to our customer?
Software solutions mentioned above include:
State of the art GUI that addresses both needs of engineer as end user and customer’s solution portfolio
To implement rich set of functionalities in order to fit both needs of construction engineer, our customer’s products and solutions and make user interface intuitive, efficient and good-looking was a big challenge. We had to consider best practices in several fields including civil engineering, 3-dimensional drawings, 2-dimension drawings, desktop application usability, etc.
Lower costs of publishing new software, calculation methods, certificates and documentation in new software
New software versions are available through built-in Agito AutoUpdate module. In this way customers can access and use the latest software version, product data, related compliance certificates and new calculation algorithms, methods and international standards.
The only thing that is needed to provide new versions to end-user is to publish it on public update server. Everything else is taken care by Agito solution itself.
Proper software architecture
The software architecture combines state of the art user interface (3D engine + Office 2007 look), platform for fast and seamless calculation and drawings when user changes any piece of construction data on different operating systems and hardware.
Reliable and long-term partnership
Agito's professionalism, technical excellence and deliveries provided to our customer established ground for future cooperation which has already taken place.
