Motivation
The customer sought to create the largest online auction marketplace in the US for distressed property transactions. The goal was to streamline the process of managing vast amounts of documents and data related to each property, ensuring that critical information was delivered to the correct audience. Azati's solution was designed to automate and optimize content management while integrating with various third-party technologies.
Main challenges
Challenge 01
Streamlining Development Between Multiple Vendors
The project required coordination between various vendors to ensure the smooth development and integration of multiple modules. Azati played a key role in aligning these efforts and enhancing the overall development process.

Our approach
Coordinating Development Efforts
Azati led the coordination of multiple vendors, ensuring that each contributed effectively to the project. We streamlined development and facilitated integration between different systems to avoid delays and inefficiencies.
Ensuring Document Security with Vitrium and SpringCM
Azati implemented a comprehensive Content Security Policy (CSP), using Vitrium and SpringCM technologies to secure PDFs and other critical files, ensuring they were protected against unauthorized access.
Custom Plugin Development
Our team developed custom plugins and modules from scratch, such as the PPDF Web App, Inactive Sync Module, Auction Box, and various data processing tools. These plugins enabled seamless data transfer, improved file management, and enhanced the overall user experience on the auction platform.
Automating Auction Data Management
We built systems to automatically group property-related documents, calculate auction prices, and display information on the marketplace. The structured data generated from these processes was integrated into the auction website for a smooth, automated experience.
