Blue Arc Asset Tracker (BAAT)

A no code asset tracking system.

Creation, management, and notification of assets is a common business need and should be simple. This was our inspiration behind building BAAT. We wanted to deliver an easy-to-use application which delivered business value immediately, without the need for everything usually involved in a traditional software development lifecycle. With Appian's low code framework developers can build apps fast. With BAAT we knew we could empower business user to build apps even faster using a no code approach. We have given all the power into the hands of a user of the application to configure it as they need .
The application's features include everything you would need for asset tracking. The core functionality used is out of the box Appian. We also utilized the color picker custom plug-in to allow users to select almost any color they desire for the icons and styling.
Some challenges we faced where do to the fact that the system had to be extremely dynamic. The main benefit of the application was its greatest hurdle to over come from a design perspective. Every screen would have to be configured at run time instead of having developers build each interface out for specific use cases. Another challenge was around how we would store data in a manner that met industry standards for normalization while also supporting the dynamic nature of the application.
