Modernizing construction project Management

Client Overview

About MEP

Business Challenge

MEP Group Ltd is a leading European contractor specializing in mechanical, electrical, and public health systems for large-scale residential and commercial buildings. Their internal digital platform for managing construction projects had become outdated, difficult to maintain, and lacked the scalability required for external deployment or resale.

MEP’s legacy project management system faced several critical limitations:

  • Outdated Technology: The platform’s aging tech stack hindered maintainability and future enhancements.
  • Limited Scalability: Organically grown architecture was not designed for multi-client or productized use.
  • User Experience Gaps: Project managers and engineers found the interface cumbersome and inefficient for daily tasks.
  • No Mobile Support: Lack of a robust mobile solution restricted on-site usability and real-time reporting.

MEP needed a modern, scalable, and user-friendly platform to support current operations and enable future B2B productization.
