Oil services inventory app improves efficiencies

At InceptionU, we are very proud of our learners and what they can accomplish in just six short months. It’s an intense deep dive into the world of coding, software development, critical thinking, teamwork and problem-solving.

Over the course of the program, they deepen their knowledge of programming and spend the last three months building an actual software program which they present on Demo Day. In this series, we introduce you to our learners and invite you to see for yourself their creativity, design skills, teamwork and problem-solving skills. These projects represent months of hard work and, ultimately, helped many of our learners connect and find jobs with some of Calgary’s leading tech companies. Enjoy and share this post with a friend or colleague who you think might find it interesting.

WHATEVER IT IS, THE WAY YOU TELL YOUR STORY ONLINE CAN MAKE ALL THE DIFFERENCE.


Why

This team came largely from the oil and gas industry and had unique insights on inventory control issues in the industry. The “old” way of doing inventory was based on spreadsheets, records were outdated and inaccurate.


What they built: 


They designed an app for an oil services company. The new digital inventory control system can be accessed by multiple users and from various sites. It eliminates the need for physical visits to the site and improves efficiencies with up to date and accurate inventory statistics. This team used #JavaScript with #reacthooks , #HTML, #CSS, #Formik, #Yup, and #materialui, as well as #nodejs, #MongoDB, and #Mongoose.

Facilitator’s comments: Greg Fenton

“Of all the projects I facilitated, this was most directly focused on an industry deliverable. They had a specific problem they wanted to solve. They accomplished something - they had it working, they were able to show that you could store and retrieve data from a database through a web-based user interface. It was fantastic!”
