Project management in complex organizations is hindered by fragmented tools, manual tracking, and limited visibility into progress. This leads to inefficiencies, delays, and poor collaboration, highlighting the need for a unified platform that simplifies workflows and improves real-time visibility.

Research revealed that the Government of India uses multiple monitoring systems and administrative processes to track projects across ministries rather than a single unified tool.

The design process began with a detailed project brief from the Project Manager and CTO.

This phase focused on understanding the business vision, technical constraints, timelines, and success metrics.

After receiving the brief, we conducted multiple deep-dive discussions.

We asked detailed “why, what, and how” questions to uncover real problems, edge cases, and expectations from different departments.
