The Challenge

Visual presentation with drag-n-drop facilities for a vast physical site (Ground) and arrangements of beds within myriads of tents was a big challenge for us.

A vast pool of pilgrims is commuting within a definite period. Creating the sitting plans using the drag-n-drop tools & interface was nothing but sailing against the tide for us!

Apart from visual design challenges, we have to design as well as programming a complex back-end and front-end for multiple users including contributing companies, service providers, various Hajj Councils, and government & non-government bodies for Pilgrims across the globe.

Project Scope

Research & Analysis

We applied the latest research and statistical methods to find, analysis, and reporting the client-side requirements. We have concluded that the client wants a visual solution for

Need to handover the arrangements of beds in the tents in the hands of coordinators (Hajjco) in an open ground where pilgrims have to spend nights.

Need to handover the preparation of a schedule for commuting vehicles (Buses) running in between holy sites, and all with custom arrangements for seats in the hands of coordinators.

Planning

We created Project Plan and defined Milestones & Deliverables, according to the scope of work.

Architecture

Our web architects have defined the components, navigation, and visual interfaces with the integration of the latest tools and technologies.

Strategy

As per the plan, we needed to develop the Mutahed website that provides information to visitors related to Hajj.

Accuracy

To ensure that the entered data is 100% correct, the application required the Testing & Data Accuracy feature. It is for the entire recorded data and the provision for entire data repository re-checked and the information re-matched.

Support & Maintenance

The role of Perception System was not ending with web designing and web application development but extended throughout the software lifecycle including supports and maintenance. It was one of the commitments to the client.
