Vuram launches live tracking app ‘Trackable’ for COVID vaccine distribution

Vuram, a hyper-automation services company, has launched an app for the live tracking of COVID essentials such as vaccines, oxygen cylinders, PPE, and masks. Trackable is the first-ever Appian live tracking app, and Vuram’s team behind the app won first place in the recently concluded Appian World 2021 Online Hackathon. Appian World 2021 Online Hackathon is a platform for participants to bring their software vision into reality faster by building a custom app and contesting for prizes.

“Coming up with an idea to solve the growing needs associated with this critical time was the most important focus. While the solution is currently focused towards COVID vaccine distributions, we also wanted to ensure the solution remains highly customizable for any evolving use cases as well,” says Michael Sujith, lead developer of the Trackable application.

A statement informed, “Trackable is built using the Appian platform’s Process models, SAIL, Objects, and a custom live tracking component built exclusively for this application. Trackable features three modules: the Administrator, Support agent, and Delivery driver module to offer separate views and access controls for each type of user.”

The highlights of the app are as follows:

• Live tracking with street view
• Trained facial recognition model powered by Microsoft Azure:To track the drivers’ attendance and to ensure goods are handled only by authorized personnel
• Demand management for inventories
• Demand analysis
• Offline multilingual feature availability for the delivery driver module
• The Administrator module features the navigation pattern, which is one of the latest features on Appian.

The statement also informed, “Besides tracking vaccines and essentials like oxygen cylinders, PPE, and masks, the application can also be customised to suit a myriad of industries such as Retail, Supply Chain, Manufacturing, based on the ever-evolving requirements and business use cases these industries face. A live tracking delivery product with a short go-to-market timeline can boost a variety of businesses.”

“Custom component building is at the heart of this application, and we focussed on making them more creative to provide an improved user experience. We are happy that we have managed to make it to the top in just a month. On behalf of Vuram, I thank the Appian Hackathon team for their efforts in conducting the event, and my hearty congratulations to all the winners,” said Santosh Kumar, co-developer of Trackable.
