关于客户
Nextbook是专门为大学生设计的。要注册，用户必须拥有一个活跃的 .edu 电子邮件帐户，以确保该平台仅针对该人群。该平台允许学生参与 P2P 市场，他们可以在自己的校园或美国任何大学校园内与学生买卖书籍。对大学生和教科书买卖流程的关注使 NextbookIt 与亚马逊或 Facebook Marketplace 等其他市场区分开来。该公司的目标是成为大学生的首选资源，并计划未来将业务扩展到书籍之外。
挑战
NextbookIt 是一个点对点 (P2P) 图书销售市场，其创建目的是让大学生能够与全国各地的同龄人一起购买和销售图书。该平台最初是手工编码的，但团队面临许多技术问题。当程序员离开公司时，情况变得更加复杂，首席执行官兼联合创始人 Deric McCurry 不得不寻求更高效和可扩展的解决方案。没有接受过正式编程培训的 McCurry 最初对无代码平台的局限性感到犹豫，因为他有过 WordPress 的使用经验。
解决方案
McCurry 发现了无代码运动的领导者 Bubble，并决定使用这个平台重建 NextbookIt。 Bubble 强大的点击式 Web 编辑器和云托管平台使 McCurry 能够为 NextbookIt 构建完全可定制的 Web 应用程序。该平台集成了用户验证、支付处理和运输，为学生提供易于使用的体验。 Bubble 的深入功能令 McCurry 感到惊讶，使他能够构建、实施或集成他想要的任何东西。该平台还支持适合移动设备的解决方案，考虑到目标受众（大学生）以移动设备为中心的习惯，这对 NextbookIt 来说是一个显着优势。

Digital Transformation of Atlanta Grout & Tile: An IoT Case Study
Atlanta Grout & Tile, a Tile, Stone & Grout restoration company based in Woodstock, Georgia, was facing challenges with its traditional business model. Despite steady growth over the years, the company was falling behind the web revolution and missing out on the opportunity to tap into a new consumer base. They were using independent software from different vendors for each of their department information and workforce management. This resulted in a lot of manual work on excel and the need to export/import data between different systems. This not only increased overhead costs but also slowed down their response to clients. The company also had to prepare numerous reports manually and lacked access to customer trends for effective business decision-making.

Revolutionizing Construction Equipment Rental: A Case Study on ProsRent and ENO8
ProsRent, a startup that won the 'Best Financial Opportunity' and 'Best Pitch' at CodeLaunch 2016, aimed to revolutionize the way construction professionals source and rent heavy equipment. In the construction industry, project managers and contractors typically rent heavy equipment from supply companies. However, predicting inventory can be challenging, and finding the required equipment at the right time and place can be a hassle. If the preferred vendor doesn't have the required equipment, it results in wasted time and money in searching for it, often leading to higher costs due to non-preferred rates and increased delivery costs if the vendor is located far from the job site. Suppliers, on the other hand, desired access to a wider base of trusted renters that they didn't have to vet themselves and wanted to offer dynamic rental pricing based on demand and availability in their market. ProsRent's challenge was to produce a minimum viable product that was fast and first to market but also strong enough to engender loyalty and repeat business from the target market.

IoT Solution Enhances Comfort and Energy Efficiency at Apple Valley Commons Office
Apple Valley Commons, a mixed-use office complex built in 1986, was facing significant comfort and energy efficiency challenges. The building, which houses a variety of businesses, was experiencing extreme temperature imbalances, causing discomfort to employees and clients. Despite outdoor temperatures being consistently high during summers, occupants had to use space heaters to keep warm. The electricity bills from the constant operation of the heat pump were exorbitant. The building's elevator room on the roof was also overheating, reaching temperatures of 130 to 140 degrees, causing the elevator equipment to shut down. The building's existing controls solution did not provide a front end for diagnostics or remote control. The building management was seeking a solution that could address these temperature issues, improve occupant comfort, reduce operational costs, and increase building visibility.

Revamping EE's Legacy ERP: A Case Study on BT's Strategic Transformation
EE, even after its merger with BT, was operating its ERP estate on legacy infrastructure, hosted on the premises of a third-party supplier. This outdated system resulted in a volume-based operational model, higher time to market, longer delivery cycles, and unsatisfactory customer experience. BT recognized the need for a strategic transformation of these aging ERP systems and sought a partner who could proactively manage application services. The partner was also expected to handle development requirements associated with application management services, drive accountability, and ownership with a time and target-driven transformation of these services. BT's primary goals were to improve customer experience, reduce cycle time, and measure these improvements with precision.
