Consulting company Home Builders Research, Inc (Las Vegas, Nevada, US) is considered the premier housing research firm within the Las Vegas housing market. Unique due to their proprietary computer databases, most reports were created manually. As time sensitive data, ease of use, and accuracy of organization is critical to the firms operation, there was a need for new architecture that reduced human error and upgraded user experience while saving time.

The Mission

HBR required specific reports, which take time to create and input crucial data. To achieve this, a database overhaul and UI redesign would be necessary. These business related reports would need to be readily accessible, to reduce menial labor from staff, and rectify existing workflow from human error.

The Result

After redesigning the FileMaker database, implementing a custom naming convention for continued future reporting developments, we created a UI experience that was flawlessly easy to use while handling robust data sets; these include Dashboards that display the most frequently used KPI’s, organized and structured data, and highlighted what was most important for client staff to make crucial decisions.
