Modular House Manufacturer
Our client, a modular housing manufacturer with a presence across the UK, was facing operational limitations with its task planning and management tools. Initially built on a no-code platform, their custom tool had met basic needs, but gaps in functionality were leading to workarounds and inefficiencies. While keen to move to an off-the-shelf solution, the company hesitated to commit to a fully custom platform and struggled to find a ready-made solution that fit its requirements. It was clear that a more thorough exploration of needs and existing solutions was essential to recommend the right approach.

We proposed a structured discovery phase to fully understand the company’s operational requirements and explore solutions that could support both current operations and future growth. Through a series of workshops, interviews, and market research, we mapped out the company’s functional needs across resource and inventory management, quality assurance, and scalability. This phase included hands-on demonstrations of potential platforms, allowing us to assess each one’s strengths, limitations, and alignment with the company’s workflow.
In addition to exploring off-the-shelf solutions, we evaluated several low-code platforms, which could provide a strong foundation while allowing the client’s team to make ongoing refinements. This approach combined the robustness of a pre-built solution with the flexibility of in-house customizability—key for a company looking to scale without being tied to an inflexible system.
