St. Modwen

St. Modwen Properties Limited is a property investment and development business specialising in the regeneration and remediation of brownfield land and urban environments, delivering exceptional places to live and work.

We supported the St. Modwen Homes division with their CRM Project via establishing new data connections with various industry platforms that will further strengthen their customer centricity strategy.

The vision

To significantly reduce operational complexity to enable innovation of the customer journey

  1. Single version of the truth
  2. Automation of manual tasks
  3. System driven data analytics

The problem

Create single data entry points within Salesforce CRM enabling synchronisation of data with the UK leading real estate property portals.

The objectives

To develop an automated, robust, secure and sustainable data connection to 3 external sources within 15 days.

Data sources

We reviewed a number of different data sources for this project which included:
  • Rightmove
  • OnTheMarket
  • Zoopla
  • Databricks
We delivered the data solution within the 15 day challenge.

Discovery

We used our DATA³ Discovery Process to capture all business requirements and reviewed all relevant data sources, technology stacks and API documentation.

Design

We used our DATA³ Design Process to create a robust, secure solution ready for implementation.

Build

We developed the API connections, connected the data to Databricks, tested the solution end-to-end, and provided technical documentation.

“The DATA³ team came to our rescue to build 3 complex API integrations with external data sources and our internal Azure Databricks stack. A small team were parachuted into the project within hours of the request for help; the scope was agreed and very soon after, the exceptional quality of delivery was dropping in. Just superb.”
