A Case Study on Streamlining Processes for an HBS Solutions Energy Audit Company.

HBS Solutions, a growing energy audit company, faced multiple operational challenges due to manual and inconsistent processes. From inefficient scheduling to complex, error-prone calculations, these issues hampered productivity, increased costs, and affected audit accuracy. Technokeens partnered with HBS Solutions to develop a custom software solution that automated and streamlined the entire audit workflow, improving efficiency, reliability, and customer satisfaction.

The Challenge

Sagar Developers, a 20-year-old real estate group known for its thoughtful planning, architecture, and execution, had established a strong presence in Pune. Despite being a well-known brand in the real estate sector, their marketing approach was largely traditional. They had yet to leverage digital marketing to its full potential. For their new project, Accord in Hinjawadi, they decided to venture into a digital campaign for the first time to enhance visibility and drive engagement.

The challenge was to shift from traditional marketing strategies to digital, ensuring the brand reached the right target audience effectively and efficiently.

Solution

The Solution

We implemented a digital-first campaign strategy to promote the Accord project. The strategy involved using a mix of Google Ads, Facebook, Instagram, and mobile marketing to connect with customers. We allocated a significant portion of the budget to digital platforms, as they aligned with the target audience’s usage and behavior, while integrating the digital concept with an offline campaign to maintain continuity.

Our approach was to craft a campaign that was both engaging and targeted, ensuring the brand message reached potential customers and generated leads.

Challenges

Inefficient Scheduling of Audits
The audit scheduling process was entirely manual, requiring significant time and coordination. Frequent delays and rescheduling negatively impacted productivity and customer experience.
Inconsistent Calculation Templates
Energy Conservation Measure (ECM) calculations were done using various Excel sheets without a standard template. Different employees used customized formats, leading to data inconsistency and frequent errors.
Complex, Error-Prone Calculations
Each ECM involved unique formulas. Manual calculations in Excel were complex and highly susceptible to human error, risking the quality and reliability of audit results.
High Operational Costs
Manual processes for scheduling, calculations, and data management demanded more manpower and oversight, increasing overall operational costs and lowering efficiency.
Manual Utility Coordination
Communication and report submissions to utility companies were handled manually, slowing down approvals and creating additional administrative burdens.
Data Management Challenges
With no centralized system, managing the growing volume of audit data—photos, unit details, and project files—was difficult. This resulted in version control issues, data loss risks, and inefficiencies in data retrieval.

Solution

Technokeens delivered a custom cloud-based software solution hosted on AWS, designed to automate and optimize every aspect of the energy audit workflow.

Custom Software Development on AWS
A scalable and secure cloud infrastructure ensures high performance, data protection, and flexibility for future expansion.
Role-Based Secure Logins
The system features role-based access controls, allowing administrators to assign permissions based on user roles, enhancing security and operational clarity.
Centralized Data Management
All audit-related data—unit details, photos, site notes—are stored in a centralized, structured database, enabling easy access, better version control, and reduced data loss risks.
Automated ECM Calculations
Manual Excel-based ECM calculations were replaced with automated backend logic. This not only reduced human errors but also improved the accuracy and reliability of audit outputs.
Standardized Templates
Built-in ECM templates ensure standardized, uniform calculations across all audits, eliminating inconsistencies and simplifying internal reviews and audits.
Automated Report Generation and Utility Submission
Audit reports are automatically generated and can be submitted directly to utility companies via email, streamlining communications and saving time.
Mobile Application for Field Engineers
Technokeens also developed a mobile companion app. Engineers on-site can now view project details, perform calculations, upload photos, and submit reports in real-time, improving field efficiency and data accuracy.
