Integrated Building Application Submission, Review and Aproval System

Abstract

This project was created with the primary intention of creating and developing an Integrated Building Application Submission, Review and Approval System. This digital platform will also be an attempt to substitute manual, paper-based building permit with a mobile and web-based solution. The system links homeowners who are required to post drawings and documents to qualified authorities who would go through them and annotate and approve these submissions. The development was undertaken using the SCRUM model and JIRA software was used to monitor, track and manage the issues of the project. The project was separated into two large Epics: Epic1 which worked on the main submission and review system and Epic2 which worked on stabilization, quality assurance and the preparation of the release. During four Sprints, the team has managed to develop secure login system, multi-format drawing uploads, reviewer dashboard and digital annotation tools. We also resolved serious stability bugs and End-to-End (E2E) testing. This report describes the processes of Scrum, started, planned and actual, and gives some evidence of its implementation using JIRA artifacts like Burn-down charts and roadmaps.
