Possible Solution

Our solution was to develop a comprehensive, user-friendly web application that could be a one-stop platform for publishing and managing public notices. This platform would leverage digital technology to improve accessibility, efficiency, and engagement.

The idea was to take an agile approach and develop a scalable MVP in less than 4 months.

Possible Solution

Our Approach for MVP Development:

During our MVP development, we considered the domain-driven strategy for user-mapping, user stories and UX Architecture.

Since it was the first-of-its-kind platform we provided for our society, we assigned the highest priority to rapid prototyping and iterative feedback loops by which we incorporated the foreseen features swiftly with a margin for further evolving of the project.

Our concept was for a minimally scalable viable product that responded to core user needs directing us to speedy market assessment and iterative product refinement.
