Project Idea

Project Idea and Goal

The manual processes of accessing agents, filing requests, and obtaining approvals was much hectic, causing significant delays, and impacting timelines. ShedCard envisioned an innovative mobile app idea to address these inefficiencies and offer everything through a user-friendly app.

The primary goal was to generate accessible rent options and facilitate financial transactions in a convenient way via smart devices. Additionally, it wanted to design a responsive and high quality mobile app to offer clients and businesses an amusing experience. The vision was to reinvent RTO without complexities, so that outdoor construction or relevant purchases become hassle-free.

Development Timeline

The ShedCard mobile app underwent a meticulous development process stretching from May 2017 to October 2018. Responsive design and financial integration took most efforts and time.

Pain Points

Key Pain Points

Many inefficiencies and hurdles existed in the traditional RTO approach, demanding a novel tech solution. However, the leading pain points in the manual procedure were as follows

Long Timelines

It took a long time and a list of steps to apply for RTO due to which the applicants were avoiding services.

Vendor Alignment

Customers wanted to source from favorite vendors, which wasn’t possible in the prevalent system.

Arduous Paperwork

Filling, managing, and forwarding paperwork for approvals took time and involved numerous risks.

Digital Transformation

Restructuring the entire business workflows was a significant change so resistance might occur.

Data Security

Client information and business data were vulnerable to theft, arbitration, or even misuse in the physical form.

Dissimilar Structures

There were no categorization or types of outdoor structures, causing many confusions and issues.

Solution Delivered

Solution

The only viable solution was the development of a mobile app for the Rent-to-Own mechanism. ShedCard allows clients to request outdoor structures (portable buildings, sheds, lawnmowers, cabin shells, etc.) using the app. Additionally, clients have the freedom to choose a manufacturer or construction firm. The ShedCard mobile app is easy to use, facilitating form fill-ups, request approvals, or track its status. It brings manufacturers, developers, and clients together in a central platform, simplifying procedures for request submission, approvals, and RTO agreements. The app has a separate frontend for approvers, for quick response to signoffs.
