Project History

Dashboard for Supply Chain Risk Management Solution

Headed the design and development of a dashboard for a major supply chain risk management software, which led to it becoming the company's third most visited page.

The dashboard allowed users to configure and see their supply chains' most relevant health data on one page. Users could initiate a detailed analysis of problematic areas, export data in the format they prefer, apply different filters, and focus on specific areas.

Mobile Banking Apps

Led the design and development of all mobile banking apps for Georgia's biggest bank.

The Global Finance Magazine recognized the bank's mobile banking apps as the best in Eastern Europe. The apps reached a Play Store rating of 4.9 stars, making mobile banking the most popular service used by customers.

Early Warnings

Collaborated with the team on conducting the discovery phase and developing a solution that notifies customers about their supplier's potential financial distress.

The system of early warnings relied on historical data to analyze the events that usually led to a company's financial distress. If such events were detected and affected one of the suppliers, the customer would be notified, allowing them to act quickly and avoid unnecessary disruptions.
