Project scope
What is the main goal for this project?
  • Develop a Functional Desktop Application: A comprehensive platform that allows for extensive data management, detailed reporting, and analytics capabilities tailored for desktop users, providing a broad overview and deep insights into compliance management.
  • Develop a Mobile Application: An on-the-go solution optimized for mobile devices, focusing on ease of use in field conditions, including features like quick capture for compliance documentation, offline functionality, and real-time notifications.
  • Ensure Cross-Platform Compatibility: Both applications should work seamlessly across various operating systems and devices, ensuring a consistent user experience and accessibility for all users.
  • Implement Robust Security Measures: Given the sensitivity of compliance data, the applications must feature strong security protocols to protect user information and comply with data protection regulations.


What tasks will learners need to complete to achieve the project goal?
  1. Requirements Gathering:
  • Define the functional requirements for both desktop and mobile applications.
  1. Design Phase:
  • Create wireframes and prototypes for the UI/UX of both applications, focusing on ease of use and accessibility.
  • Develop a consistent design language to be used across both platforms for brand coherence.
  1. Development Phase:
  • Select appropriate technologies and frameworks for both desktop and mobile app development, considering cross-platform compatibility.
  • Implement the front-end and back-end functionalities based on the defined requirements.
  • Ensure integration of key features such as automated compliance inspections, data management, and reporting analytics.
  1. Testing:
  • Conduct unit, integration, and system testing to ensure the applications meet quality standards.
  • Perform usability testing with potential users to gather feedback and make necessary adjustments.
  1. Security Implementation:
  • Implement robust security measures to protect sensitive data and ensure compliance with data protection regulations.
  1. Deployment:
  • Prepare the applications for deployment, including setting up servers for the desktop app and submitting the mobile app to app stores.
  • Conduct final testing in the deployment environment to ensure everything operates as expected.
