Our Platform Engineering services offer you:
Focus on Innovation
Our teams of experts synchronize with you to bring their experience, ideas and design thinking to identify new areas of innovation and collaboratively implement these ideas.
Grade prediction for academic progress of students
Techlogix has developed a student grade prediction module for a cloud based campus management solution. Final grades are predicted at various stages during the semester. The predicted grade report for each student includes major reasons for the prediction allowing constructive feedback that prevents drop outs reducing financial losses for institutions and stigmas for students. Where available, associated social and demographic data is included in a predicted grade report highlighting any special circumstances and overall student population trends.

Smart Contracts for Real Estate
Techlogix is currently engaged with a public sector entity in helping implement Smart Contracts for real estate property transfers. This is a first of its kind initiative in the country and would improve security by helping prevent fraud transactions and provide better transparency to the regulator helping improve tax collections and lost revenue. It would also help improve operational inefficiencies by removing intermediaries and reducing the administrative effort of record keeping and transaction reconciliation.

Occupancy Classification for Smart Airbag Deployment
Techlogix developed a real-time and cost-effective vision-based 3D occupancy detection and classification system for smart airbag deployment for Eaton Corporation, a leading automobile technology company. The key system requirements were to detect the presence of an object in close proximity of the airbag (the “at-risk” zone) within 10ms and to determine occupant type on the front passenger seat of the automobile. The airbag controller would use this information to determine whether or not to deploy the airbag. Techlogix developed a fast stereo-vision algorithm for depth-mapping to determine the presence of an object in the at-risk zone. For occupant determination, a multi-stage expert system was developed to classify the occupants as adult, child, rear-facing infant seat, front-facing child seat and other. Using hundreds of static images, more than 500 features were extracted and input to a Machine Learning classifier. The ML classifier output and selected features were used in the second stage heuristic classifier to improve accuracy and calculate a Confidence Factor for each classification. The system achieved a detection accuracy of >92% and an airbag deployment accuracy of 100%. A joint patent was awarded to Eaton and Techlogix (Patent # US6459974 B1).

Reduced
Time-to-Market
To capture your market and to keep your customers (and investors!) happy you need to move faster than internet speed. We provide the right teams at the right time to bring the needed scalability as well as speed.
Greater Value for your
Money
You can choose whether you want the development team co-located or you want to benefit from the cost advantage of offshore teams. Or perhaps you want to have the best of both worlds with a hybrid team.
IP Protection
Our business depends on long-term relationships with our customers built on mutual trust. Protecting your confidential information and IP is engraved deeply in our culture and your IP is secure.
Our Strengths
Solution Design Excellence
Our solution architects work closely with clients to design highly tailored systems that are aligned with the needs of all stakeholders. We create a robust architecture that is scalable, secure, and flexible thus ensuring that the platform can grow and adapt over time. Our design best practices prioritize modularity for ease of maintenance, allow seamless integration with other systems, and maintain a high level of performance and efficiency. Additionally, we put a strong emphasis on security, user experience, and compliance with regulatory standards.
Advanced Cloud-Mobile Development
We design and develop Cloud-Native applications – not traditional apps migrated to hosted environments. We offer services to:
- Architect and implement performance centric, multi-tenant and secure products using Amazon AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, etc.
- Re-engineer existing on-premise products into applications that use the full “elasticity” of resources offered by cloud infrastructure.
- Identify compute, storage, networking, high-availability and scaling requirements to design a flexible architecture and roadmap so that platforms start small and scale up or out judiciously.
- Utilize benchmarking analytics tools to continually monitor and adjust the performance vs. cost tradeoffs as per your current business needs.
We leverage patterns & development frameworks to build native Android and iOS native applications optimized for device specific feature benefits. Adherence to responsive design principles allows for mobile websites and cross-browser & cross-device ease of use.
Data Analytics & AI
Our AI engineers embed data analytics and AI into the platforms we develop by integrating tools for data collection, processing, and analysis to enable smarter decision-making and automation. This includes real-time analytics, machine learning models, and AI-driven features like personalization, predictions, and intelligent recommendations. These capabilities enhance user experiences, optimize operations, and allow for continuous learning from data, adapting the platform to evolving needs while providing deep insights and automation to improve functionality and business outcomes.
Our Methodology
User Experience (UX) Design
Our creative design experts aim to ensure that every encounter with a user is an appealing, rich and useful experience that invites, engages, and results in repeat usage.
The life cycle starts with the development of aesthetically appealing and conceptually meaningful visual themes of the product using color, fonts and images. Visual storyboarding workshops are held to chalk out features on your priority list using tools such as colorful sticky notes or Trello. Mobile-first and responsive design screen mock-ups are created following industry standards such as Google Material Design, using prototyping tools such as JustInMind. The design is then published and finalized collaboratively using tools such as InVision.
Our Agile Development Toolkit
Our methodology encompasses roles, practices, and templates to streamline product definition, platform engineering, and delivery project management. Leveraging agile frameworks like Scrum, Kanban, blended & hybrid approaches, we tailor strategies that best align with your platform goals and team strengths.
We monitor short-term plans for release time, resource utilization with long-term objectives in tools like A-Ha, Gantt charts. An artifact aids sprint ETA forecasting via complexity-based estimates in story points. Tools like JIRA, Confluence, MS Teams, Google Drive ensure collaboration, transparency, and seamless integration across remote teams, time zones. Risk and dependencies are driven in RAID Logs, while daily stand-ups to weekly PMO syncs, ensure direction.
Retrospectives, self SWOT grading and governance by a directive EPMO foster continual improvement, streamline processes, and provide end-to-end visibility for delivering results effectively and efficiently.
Quality First Engineering
Our specialized teams pursue quality-focused collaborative engineering across all phases. Each deliverable undergoes rigorous reviews by engineering leads, adhering to published cross-stack design & coding standards. The platforms are tested for both functional & non-functional KPIs like robustness, security, performance, and scalability.
A key lesson is to build small, release and get buyer feedback often. Our test & DevOps engineers integrate a seamless process with test scripts in Selenium, JMeter, ReadyAPI etc. embedded in CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins, Kubernetes etc.
Our Go-To-Market strategy prioritizes deployments testing for quality service to end-users and zero disruption of live features. This demands that software, hardware and data are same across environments. The approach of DEV mirrors QA, and Stage mirrors Production, facilitates effective UAT and successful Production releases for win-win Go-Lives.
