Objective
This case study seeks to demonstrate Leaware’s expertise in designing and developing the Xexpress platform, a cutting-edge solution that streamlines communication between couriers and freight forwarders.
Meet the Client
Our client operates a European Express Transport Network comprising independent courier companies across Europe. Their goal was to ease the process of establishing contact and coordinating activities among their members spread across different regions.
Historical Background
& Current Situation
The Xexpress platform was conceived to bridge the gap between couriers and freight forwarders. The aim was to create an efficient communication channel for these parties, making their interaction seamless, swift, and reliable. Currently, Xexpress has successfully bridged this communication gap and is improving the efficiency of transactions between these groups.
Challenge
The challenge was to design a platform that could handle a vast amount of information and parameters, facilitate real-time chat communication, integrate an email notification system, and be responsive and adaptable to various devices. Additionally, user accounts needed to be verified by the admin for security and trust.
Solution
Utilizing ASP.NET MVC and ASP.NET SignalR technologies, Leaware developed a platform that meets the client’s requirements. Xexpress was created as a CMS project, with a built-in database for user accounts that require admin verification. The platform supports real-time chat communication, and an email notification system, enhancing the speed and reliability of interactions between couriers and freight forwarders.
