Requirement: Software Architect & DevOps Engineer (Part-Time)
Budget: ₹12,500 – ₹37,500 INR
Industrial Construction & Materials Marketplace Platform (Android, iOS & Web)
This project is a real-time, GPS-enabled, Uber-style B2B marketplace for industrial procurement, connecting construction companies and material suppliers on a single digital platform.
The objective is to eliminate phone calls, middlemen, delays, and price opacity by enabling instant discovery, price comparison, and order execution through mobile and web applications.
1. Platform Vision
The platform will connect:
• Industrial construction companies
• EPC and infrastructure contractors
• Cement, steel, electrical, hardware, plumbing, chemical and raw-material suppliers
into one live, real-time marketplace where buyers and sellers interact digitally based on location, stock availability, pricing, delivery speed, and reputation.
The system must operate with the same simplicity and speed as Uber / OLA, but for construction materials.
2. Real-World Working Example
A factory in Peenya, Bengaluru urgently needs:
• 200 bags of OPC cement
• 5 tons of TMT steel
• Electrical conduits
Using the Construction Company App:
1. The site engineer enters the requirement and pins the project location on the map.
2. The system instantly shows all nearby suppliers live on Google Maps, with their:
o Stock availability
o Prices
o Delivery timelines
o Ratings
3. Multiple suppliers respond with offers.
4. The engineer selects the best options and places the order.
5. Payment is completed inside the app.
6. Live delivery tracking begins until materials reach the site.
A process that normally takes 1–2 days of calls and negotiations is completed in minutes.
3. Scope of Development
The selected vendor will be responsible for complete design, development, testing and deployment of the following:
A. Mobile Applications (Android & iOS)
1) Construction Company App
• Company registration & KYC
• Project creation and site pinning on map
