I led the development at surf&turf of a sophisticated configurator for HDO Aanbouw, a prominent construction company. This project aimed to provide clients with an interactive tool to explore various possibilities for house extensions, enhancing both user experience and operational efficiency.

Project Highlights:

Objective: Develop a user-friendly configurator that allows clients to explore and customise house extension options.

Technologies Used: Next.js, Firebase, Puppeteer, Heroku, and Digital Ocean.

Key Responsibilities and Achievements:

Quality Assurance: Ensured high-quality standards by rigorously testing and validating each component. Collaborated closely with the HDO team to maintain seamless integration and communication, ensuring images and options aligned with their expectations.

Customisation: Implemented a system for combining pricing options with logic and states using Next.js, allowing HDO to adjust prices and toggle available options as needed.

Functionality: Developed a tool that enables HDO to send customised offers via email, containing the filled-in information and selected options from the configurator.

Challenges Overcome:

Navigated the complexities of guiding multiple teams and aligning their efforts for a cohesive end product. Ensured the configurator was robust and flexible, allowing real-time adjustments by HDO to meet client needs.

Impact:

The configurator enhances the client experience by allowing them to explore and customise options and streamlines the process by sending detailed offers directly to users via email, improving communication and conversion rates.

Through this project, we delivered a powerful configurator that not only enhances the client experience but also provides HDO Aanbouw with a dynamic tool to manage and present their house extension options effectively. The successful implementation of this configurator marks a significant step forward in HDO's digital transformation journey.
