Innovating Sri Lanka's Construction Industry: A Digital Marketplace
Our IT company embarked on a project to transform Sri Lanka’s construction industry through a comprehensive mobile and web-based system. Our primary objective was to create a digital platform that enables users to find the best construction materials and services at competitive prices. We achieved this by developing a system where customers can easily submit inquiries specifying their needs, whether for materials or services. This inquiry-based approach ensures that users can clearly communicate their requirements, paving the way for tailored responses from suppliers.
Once an inquiry is submitted, local construction materials and service providers in the user’s area receive a notification, prompting them to send quotations directly to the customer through the platform. This feature not only fosters competitive pricing but also streamlines the process of obtaining multiple quotes, saving users time and effort. Our system’s unique strength lies in its ability to connect customers with a wide network of verified suppliers, enhancing the transparency and efficiency of the procurement process. The platform also includes a review and rating system, where users can browse feedback and comments from other customers, aiding them in making informed decisions based on the reputation and service quality of the suppliers.

Payment flexibility is another critical aspect of our system. Users have the option to pay through the app, offering a secure and convenient transaction method, or choose cash on delivery if they prefer. This dual-payment approach caters to varying user preferences and enhances the accessibility of services. Furthermore, our system employs advanced security measures to ensure that all online transactions are safe and protected against any form of cyber threat, reinforcing user trust in the platform. Post-transaction, customers are encouraged to share their experiences on the platform by posting reviews. This feedback mechanism not only helps other users in their decision-making process but also promotes a culture of transparency and accountability among suppliers.
