Background Info
Our client, the oldest European fresh fruit exporter that specializes in the production, packaging, marketing, and industrialization of citrus and its byproducts, asked us to develop a mobile app to integrate farmers in the business process of fruit reception. This app is the first stage of a big project that implies the implementation of gamification mechanics intended to unite businesses with suppliers and customers digitally.
One of the project’s essential tasks is to make data entry to the ERP system easier and smoother. To reach this goal, Program-Ace suggested using the information from farmers, cooperatives, and suppliers, meanwhile providing all suppliers with a rating to motivate them to give useful and accurate information.
Nevertheless, the business goals of the project were ambitious but simple: first of all, decreasing the waiting time for farmers in a queue before a factory ramp and diminishing rotting fruit losses upon reception.
The first few months after the introduction of a new mobile app showed significant shortening of the waiting time in the queues, so the management team felt exceptionally optimistic about the further development of the project.
Program-Ace provided gamification services for farmers and producers as a packaged solution that includes game scenarios uniquely adapted to client’s business needs, equipped with all the necessary professional, visually-rich materials, and full-cycle mobile application development.
