HCL- SNU
Smarter Internal Systems for a Connected Enterprise.
Client Overview
Shiv Nadar Foundation operates Shiv Nadar University (SNU) along with internal administrative systems that support students, faculty, and employees across its ecosystem. Within an enterprise technology environment associated with HCL (IT & Technology Consulting Services), the foundation focused on digitizing its internal operations to improve efficiency, transparency, and centralized access to essential services. To support this transformation, a unified internal mobile application system was developed for both students and employees, enabling seamless access to attendance, bookings, HR services, and campus-related operations through a single digital platform.

Challenges They Face
Shiv Nadar Foundation faced multiple operational and system-level challenges in managing internal workflows across students and employees within the ecosystem.
- Attendance Tracking Issues: Existing systems lacked accuracy in punch-in/punch-out tracking, leading to manual errors and inconsistencies in attendance records.
- No Location Validation: There was no reliable mechanism to ensure that attendance was marked only from authorized campus or office locations.
- Fragmented Internal Services: Employees had to rely on multiple systems to access essential services such as payslips, ID cards, canteen menus, and internal information.
- Campus Resource Management Gaps: Students faced challenges in booking academic slots, managing shared transport (carpooling), and coordinating schedules.
- Lack of Centralized Scheduling System: Absence of a unified booking and calendar system resulted in conflicts and inefficient utilization of campus and organizational resources.
Solutions We Offered
AppSquadz implemented a unified internal mobile application system to streamline operations across students and employees within the Shiv Nadar Foundation ecosystem.
- Attendance Tracking Issues: Developed an automated punch-in/punch-out attendance system to ensure accurate and real-time attendance recording with reduced manual dependency.
- No Location Validation: Implemented a location-based validation system (geo-fencing approach) to ensure attendance is marked only from authorized campus or office premises.
- Fragmented Internal Services: Created a centralized employee module providing access to payslips, ID cards, canteen menus, and internal services through a single application.
- Campus Resource Management Gaps: Built a student-focused system with slot booking, carpool coordination, and resource management features, improving campus-level operational efficiency.
- Lack of Centralized Scheduling: Introduced an integrated calendar and scheduling system to manage bookings and events, reducing conflicts and improving planning.
- Additional Security Enhancements: Integrated face recognition-based authentication and fingerprint biometric verification, along with a secure app unlock mechanism to strengthen identity validation.
Project Overview
