OVERVIEW

Our client provides bike repair and maintenance service of motor vehicles in Singapore. They also sell bikes on behalf of their customer and provide loans for purchasing bikes. Dreamztech has provided the client with a Progressive Web App(PWA) solution by replacing the existing native web app. The new PWA solution has integrated all the new features for managing the servicing life cycle of a bike in the workshop.

Users can keep track of an ongoing loan by checking EMI due date, payment history and all related information from the platform. Dreamztech is providing support to the client to date.
