  • Multiple systems which lead to multiple points of failure.
  • No method to ensure a bridge in communication between the institution and the parents.
  • The need to provide self-service access to students and faculty.

The Solution

iTech India started this engagement through a consulting phase to understand the business challenges and the desired expectations. We came up with a rapid prototyping to ensure that the potential solution aligned with the stakeholder’s growth vision. We then proceeded towards conceptualizing and architecting a highly scalable custom ERP platform that was named Edumate.
