The Client
COAX Software had been on the market for more than ten years. The COAX Team had earned a solid reputation for delivering complex software solutions for many businesses in the construction industry. Positive reviews and careful screening of available options led our new client, Site Survey, to turn to us for solutions.
Site Survey is an app that enables property professionals to produce detailed photographic Schedules of Conditions quickly. These reports are factual records that are typically created for legal or other contractual obligations. Creating these accurate documents significantly reduces inspection time, produces high-quality, accurate information, and reduces manual administration of photos.
The Challenge
The COAX Design Team accepted the challenge presented by Site Survey and walked through creating the app as it stepped through the subsequent phases of development. Requirements were that the new application provides solutions to these current issues facing the client with its existing platform:
- Inconvenient manual data collection.
- Large amounts of manual data accumulation.
- No centralized data storage.
- Organized members experience inaccessibility of gathered inspection data.
- No regulated data structuring process.
Solution Planned
COAX delivered solutions to the client. We reviewed components within the current application to develop solutions to the client's needs. Areas we chose to concentrate on improved solutions were:
- Speeding up the process of data collection through mobile and offline capabilities, which reduced inspection time by 40% on average.
- Allowing for management insight into construction specifications.
- Automating reporting mechanisms that cut report generation time from several hours to under 10 minutes.
- Advancing teamwork on construction projects through online collaboration tools.
New Product Overview
Our client's main goal was to automate survey procedures and realize a fully automated report management tool. Site Survey is a fast-growing company. It needed to expand its development capabilities and speed up the product creation process.
Site Survey chose COAX Software as their technology partner for several reasons; however, the primary justification for their choice was because the COAX Team has significant expertise in web software development.
The COAX Team has strong development capabilities. COAX Software uses intelligent design to implement incredible web and mobile-based applications. Forthis client’s purposes, the mobile app is also dedicated to comprehensive data collecting in offline mode.
The COAX Development Team walked through the development process tohandle a variety of tasks.
- Initiate access to building plans, sector names, and identifiers
- We enhanced the photo editing tools, lowering the inspection time rom 1.5 hours to 42 minutes per property
- Realize and develop a solution for uploading building plans in pdf formats
- Review sectors tools in a building plan with sector identifiers and names
Difficult Tasks Solved
There were main challenges in product development that the COAX Team created innovative solutions for during product development.
- Creating the algorithms required for uploading, editing, and mapping sections of building plans.
- Develop offline storage of construction specifications reducing delays caused by connectivity issues by up to 90%.
- Online synchronization of gathered inspection data in a single mobile application.
Results Delivered
COAX Software was able to deliver a fully automated report management tool with the required expanded functionality. The new application includes:
- Authorization features for the project or organization manager.
- Sector defects toolset.

- Inspection report tools.
The application allows Site Survey users improved time to market due to fast scaling and new functionality, including communication with skilled technical experts, achieving a 35% average reduction in operational costs per client.
