Introduction
Project Summary
Canis is an ambitious ERP project for us and our client, Aspen Creations. They are a
well-recognized name for construction services in the Arabic region. With the increasing
load of work, they thought of adopting an automated task management model to streamline
and systematize their resources.
Client Requirments
The client demanded a portal that they could use to manage resources and task
allocation, productivity, and overall efficiency. As we have already worked on ERP
projects earlier, we could relate their expectations to what we had delivered to our
previous clients.
What Client Asked For
User-friendly interface
Automated tasks assignment
Daily logs
Projects report
Workers report
Attendance
Productivity calculator
Process wise task flow

The ultimate goal of this project is to reduce redundancy and indulge in productive
management of time & resources.
We identified the unique challenges in the conventional process and implemented the
required features considering the needs of the projects. To conform to the real-time
needs, we have acquired a minimalist edge in the interface of this product which makes
it easier to operate.
Niah WilsonProject Manager, Sparx IT Solutions
“Ever since we got our hands on this project, we have tried to transform our
client’s ideas into reality & we could do this timely and effectively.
Construction is a process where we have different verticals & workers; be it
carpenter, painter, electrician, or any other and the software should be easy to use
for them. We wanted our development to be precisely focused on the user experience
for the workers. With our empirical research, we have been able to build an
easy-to-use ERP for Aspen Creations for workers, supervisors, and business owners.”
Solutions
Our Solutions
With this product, we tend to provide business and IT infrastructure to the client for
operating construction processes simply, efficiently, and effectively. Achieving maximum
productivity with the least redundancy is what every service provider seeks. We have
automated different process segments using data-efficient tools.
The Process Cycle
STEP 1
We have bifurcated the application into zones that denote the identifying
information of the place of construction. In general, a zone is a Site where the
construction shall occur.
STEP 2
Under zones, we create departments. In a single Zone, different professionals
would be doing different work. The niche of work is defined under departments.
STEP 3
A department is divided into disciplines that let the admin create the workflow
for tasks flow. i.e. woodwork contains cutting, painting and finishing.
STEP 4
The departments are further divided into tasks and sub-tasks. Tasks that are the
bigger ones are called in software “Sections”. Subtasks are the smaller ones on
which workers need to work on a daily basis such as painting a door’s one side.
These are called “Items” in our software.
STEP 5
For all the workers, tasks are assigned one by one as per discipline workflow.
This assignment of task can be automated or manual.
Productivity Analysis
To enable a legitimate assessment of productivity, we have packaged
multiple components in the application.

The most celebrated outcome of this project is that the client is experiencing a dramatic
increase and simplification in the work. Monitoring productivity has not been easier than
this.
Right from the time, we started working on this project, we outlined the real-time
objectives of the Canis and implemented features in the best way possible.
