Self SDG Mobile App ASSIST Software European Projects

ASSIST Software is making significant progress in developing the Self-SDG Mobile App, an interactive tool designed to promote sustainable behaviors and raise awareness about the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The app's architecture and design are nearly complete, and the implementation phase has begun. This innovative app will be available for both Android and iOS systems, ensuring broad accessibility. 

The Self-SDG project aims to harness the power of education and innovation to drive sustainable change. By leveraging technology, the project seeks to educate users about the SDGs and provide practical ways to contribute to their achievement. The app, meticulously designed and implemented by ASSIST Software, will serve as a vital resource for adolescents looking to enhance their commitment to sustainability. 
 

Key features of the Self-SDG Mobile App 
 

The Self-SDG Mobile App is equipped with several features designed to engage users and foster sustainable practices: 

  • Evaluate engagement: Users assess their current engagement with the SDGs through structured questions, helping them identify areas for growth. 
  • Personalized recommendations: Based on users' responses, the app offers tailored challenges and recommendations. These personalized suggestions aim to help users increase their commitment to sustainability in a manageable and impactful way. 
  • Group participation: By comparing their sustainability scores achieved within the app, users will be motivated to make continuous improvements and strive for better scores, thereby deepening their understanding and commitment to the SDGs. Furthermore, this feature creates a supportive environment where members can encourage each other towards sustainable behaviors.  
  • Sense of community: The app only educates users about the importance of the SDGs but also instills a sense of responsibility and community, driving them to contribute positively to a sustainable future in their local communities.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is ASSIST Software's development process?  

The Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) we employ defines the following stages for a software project. Our SDLC phases include planning, requirement gathering, product design, development, testing, deployment, and maintenance.

2. What software development methodology does ASSIST Software use?  

ASSIST Software primarily leverages Agile principles for flexibility and adaptability. This means we break down projects into smaller, manageable sprints, allowing continuous feedback and iteration throughout the development cycle. We also incorporate elements from other methodologies to increase efficiency as needed. For example, we use Scrum for project roles and collaboration, and Kanban boards to see workflow and manage tasks. As per the Waterfall approach, we emphasize precise planning and documentation during the initial stages.

3. I'm considering a custom application. Should I focus on a desktop, mobile or web app?  

We can offer software consultancy services to determine the type of software you need based on your specific requirements. Please explore what type of app development would suit your custom build product.   

  • A web application runs on a web browser and is accessible from any device with an internet connection. (e.g., online store, social media platform)   
  • Mobile app developers design applications mainly for smartphones and tablets, such as games and productivity tools. However, they can be extended to other devices, such as smartwatches.    
  • Desktop applications are installed directly on a computer (e.g., photo editing software, word processors).   
  • Enterprise software manages complex business functions within an organization (e.g., Customer Relationship Management (CRM), Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP)).

4. My software product is complex. Are you familiar with the Scaled Agile methodology?

We have been in the software engineering industry for 30 years. During this time, we have worked on bespoke software that needed creative thinking, innovation, and customized solutions. 

Scaled Agile refers to frameworks and practices that help large organizations adopt Agile methodologies. Traditional Agile is designed for small, self-organizing teams. Scaled Agile addresses the challenges of implementing Agile across multiple teams working on complex projects.  

SAFe provides a structured approach for aligning teams, coordinating work, and delivering value at scale. It focuses on collaboration, communication, and continuous delivery for optimal custom software development services. 

5. How do I choose the best collaboration model with ASSIST Software?  

We offer flexible models. Think about your project and see which models would be right for you.   

  • Dedicated Team: Ideal for complex, long-term projects requiring high continuity and collaboration.   
  • Team Augmentation: Perfect for short-term projects or existing teams needing additional expertise.   
  • Project-Based Model: Best for well-defined projects with clear deliverables and a fixed budget.   

Contact us to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of each model.
