Custom Solar Sales & Quotation App for AR Engineers
Midgrow developed a custom, offline-first Flutter app for AR Engineers to automate their sales quotations, reducing quote generation time from 24 hours to under 5 minutes
Results & Impact
Project Overview
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY AR Engineers, a leading solar energy solutions provider, was grappling with a critical sales bottleneck. Their field agents relied on manual paperwork and error-prone spreadsheets to generate client quotations, a process that was slow, inconsistent, and damaging to their professional image. Midgrow was engaged to engineer a bespoke mobile application to digitally transform this entire workflow. We delivered a powerful, custom-built Flutter app that empowers the sales team to create, manage, and share accurate, branded PDF quotations instantly, even when offline.
THE CLIENT & THE CHALLENGE (IN-DEPTH) AR Engineers is a top-tier provider in the competitive renewable energy sector. Their sales team is constantly in the field, meeting potential clients and assessing sites. However, their sales process was stuck in the past.
The core business challenges were significant:
- Extreme Inefficiency: Generating a single quote involved manual data entry, complex calculations on a spreadsheet (if available), and returning to the office to finalize paperwork. This entire cycle could take up to 24 hours, giving competitors a huge head start.
- Lack of Professionalism: Manual quotes were inconsistent, often contained calculation errors, and lacked professional branding. This created a poor first impression and eroded client trust.
- No Data Centralization: Management had zero real-time visibility into the sales pipeline. Quotation data was scattered across individual spreadsheets and physical forms, making tracking and forecasting impossible.
- Field Constraints: Sales agents often work in new construction areas or remote locations with unreliable or non-existent internet access, rendering any cloud-only solution useless.
MIDGROW'S STRATEGIC BLUEPRINT Our solution was to build a custom, high-performance sales tool from the ground up, designed specifically for the unique demands of a field-based sales team.
1. Technology Strategy: Offline-First with Flutter We strategically chose Flutter as the core framework. This allowed us to build a single, beautiful, high-performance application for both Android and iOS from one codebase, saving the client significant time and development costs.
Crucially, we architected an Offline-First solution. The app was built to work 100% without an internet connection. We used a robust local SQL database on the device to store all data, ensuring the sales team is always operational, anywhere, anytime.
2. Core Solution: The Digital Sales Toolkit We built a feature-rich application to replace their entire paper-based system:
- Dynamic Quotation Builder: We replaced their complex spreadsheet with an intuitive, multi-step form. Agents are guided through inputting project details, selecting products from a pre-loaded catalog, and applying pricing, while the app handles all complex calculations automatically in the background.
- Instant Branded PDF Generation: The moment the form is complete, the app generates a professional, branded PDF quotation. This document includes the AR Engineers logo, detailed project specifics, and accurate pricing, ready to be shared instantly with the client via email or WhatsApp.
- Intelligent Cloud Synchronization: The app intelligently detects when a network connection is available and automatically syncs all locally saved quotations and data to a secure, real-time cloud database. This ensures data is never lost and provides a central source of truth for the entire company.
- Secure Role-Based Access: This is not just a calculator; it's a secure business tool. We implemented a sophisticated security model with role-based access to ensure that only authorized sales reps and managers can access sensitive pricing and customer data.
THE TRANSFORMATION: RESULTS & BUSINESS IMPACT The AR Engineers Solar Quotation App, built by Midgrow, has fundamentally revolutionized their sales process.
- Massive Sales Cycle Acceleration: The app reduced the quotation generation and delivery time from 24 hours to under 5 minutes. This immediate responsiveness allows AR Engineers to close deals before competitors have even sent their proposals.
- Dramatically Improved Brand Image: The consistent, professional, and error-free PDF quotations have significantly elevated the company's brand image, increasing client confidence and trust from the very first interaction.
- 100% Data Accuracy: By automating all calculations, the app has completely eliminated manual data entry errors, protecting profit margins and ensuring all quotes are accurate.
- Newfound Business Intelligence: For the first time, management has a centralized, real-time dashboard of their entire sales pipeline. They can track quotations, analyze conversion rates, and make data-driven decisions to grow the business.
This project turned a critical business bottleneck into a powerful competitive advantage, showcasing Midgrow's ability to build custom digital solutions that drive real-world efficiency and growth.
