Business Objective

Customer is a renowned name for its car entertainment systems and accessories, specializing in the design and manufacturing of a range of equipment. It planned a system that brings car diagnostics and maintenance to the user’s smartphones and facilitates a clear view of the fleet for fleet management companies.

The client wanted to build a setup that provides ease in driving and maintaining vehicles, helping resolve issues quickly, and offering peace of mind to both customers and mechanics. To achieve this, the customer introduced an OBD (On-board diagnostics) system, a hardware solution for bringing data from the vehicle to the cloud. However, the client faced numerous challenges with their existing partner agency and sought a new partner:

With prior experience in IoT and fleet management.
Who could understand, structure, and devise system architecture for scalable mobile, web, and head unit applications and sync them with OBDs.
Who could develop a system for producing effective diagnostics and reporting outputs.
With rich experience in the design and development of mobile and web applications with Bluetooth.
Who could provide long-term development and enhancement support.

Challenges

The existing systems included mobile application for iOS and android, head unit app, its admin panel and a web panel for fleet management. The primary requirement of the mobile and head unit application was to have an offline support and hardware connection establishment. Features needed from the technology ecosystem were:

Vehicle tracking
Improvement in UI
Analytical data of vehicle
Server management and migration

Solution

Chosen as a technology partner to overcome the challenges and build a holistic car diagnostic solution, FINOIT recommended a phased approach to meet the requirements of the client in developing the whole system. We studied every component and offered our solutions for each, as:
