The Challenge
“We needed a solution that could not only handle our growth but also improve usability for farmers on the ground. Scalability, speed, and smarter verification were top priorities.” — Project Director, Sustainable Farming Enterprise
Key issues included:
- High storage consumption for KYC images
- No secure or scalable farmer verification
- Paper-based agreements and land record handling
- Limited survey data impacting accuracy
- Slow, monolithic architecture with performance bottlenecks
- Lack of automation and encryption
Our Approach
Nimap conducted a comprehensive audit and implemented targeted upgrades across data storage, system architecture, user verification, and automation. The entire backend was reengineered for performance and scalability, with seamless integration of microservices, cloud infrastructure, and robust security protocols.
