About

GALVmed​

Originally founded in 2004, GALVmed (earlier GALV) has a mission to Protectect livestock, save human lives. Funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation as well as DFID, they make veterinary medicine and vaccines for livestock animals and make advanced diagnostics affordable and accessible for more than 900 million ranchers in developing countries around the world.

Understanding the Challenge

Difficulty in Calculating Market Potential With Spreadsheets

Difficulty in Calculating Market Potential With Spreadsheets. It was difficult to estimate the market potential for various veterinarian pharmaceutical drugs for different regions using manual processes. Their existing approach consisted of using spreadsheets for storing data and computing calculations.

  • It was difficult to scale the existing spreadsheet-based model or even just maintain it, because of many tabs such as countries, production systems, products, diseases, population, etc.
  • The data could not be accessed on mobiles.
  • Since it was a spreadsheet model, the chances of losing data and having calculation errors were inevitable.
  • It was not possible to calculate the market potential for all the species from one single interface.
  • It did not allow multiple data entries or the ability to make advanced condition-based calculations and forecasts.

Building the Solution

Building an Intuitive Interface

The solution is accessible and supports all livestock species, enabling the client to calculate the market potential for veterinary drugs easily. It was scalable and fairly easy to maintain. It’s mobile-friendly and accessible from anywhere. Not only that, but it also allows users to apply condition-based calculations and make predictions based on them.

Our Approach

  • Understanding The User Journey

    We went through a digital discovery process to understand the issues the client was facing and what they wanted to achieve with the solution. We went deep into the details and tried to address the root cause in order to come up with the perfect solution.
  • Building Wireframes & Designs

    After understanding the workflow and creating user personas, we went on build wireframes, and later designs, for the solution we were proposing. We then ran the designs past the client and go them approved before building a prototype and starting development.
  • Development

    This was when our team of developers got to work to develop a modular solution. Other than the server components for data management, the team went on to build an administrative module for user management as well as work order management, and a QA module to manage their daily quality control tasks.
  • Deployment, Testing & Training

    We helped deploy the solution after integrating it with the backend and then offered training to the client so they could understand the new solution and gain from it in the best possible way.
