Introduction of the Customer

HB Reavis belongs to the successful development companies in the Central and Eastern Europe. It has been a leader on the Slovak market since 1993. Currently, it provides its services in Poland, the Czech Republic and Hungary and expands to the UK and Turkey. It covers the whole range of activities from identifying investment opportunities, site selection, architectural design and its implementation to subsequent property management. The company has been our client since 2014.

"We tried the method of agile development with Millennium for the first time, because we wanted to get the final product fast and effectively. We saw the first results of development already after two weeks and we reached the final product prepared for launch after two months of intensive work. Of course, given the speed of development, some adjustments to the specification were inevitable. However, we rate the final product developed in close cooperation with Millennium as highly positive.“

How We Helped the Customer?

HB Reavis used Microsoft Dynamics CRM version 4.0 for customer management, which no longer satisfied company requirements. Since the relationship management system from Microsoft worked well, the company decided to upgrade it to a new version – Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2015.

In the process of development, we used the agile methodology. Deployment of the newest CRM version in hybrid scenario and on-premise installation in Microsoft Azure cloud was the special feature of the solution. The on-premise version does not require any local infrastructure.

The new version provides employees with new functions such as Activity management (Outlook client), the mobile CRM application and better compatibility with other programs (MS Office, Internet Explorer, alternative browsers etc.).

Comprehensive use of Microsoft 365 products

The HB Reavis Group has approximately 400 employees and every one of them has to have an access to all relevant information. One of the possibilities how to ensure that is the existence of a corporate intranet. The original corporate intranet was based on simple CMS solutions and information was spread through several web sites. The HB Reavis Group was therefore looking for a solution able to unify all the information at one platform. It was also very important not to make major changes of existing processes.

We built the solution on the Microsoft SharePoint 2010 platform, currently used by the customer. This web application is available via the internal HB Reavis Group network.

Thanks to the implemented solution, the customer has gained the following benefits:

the client gained a unified access platform where the employees can find all current and relevant information.
the effectivity on the side of intranet end users as well as individual departments has been increased.
new employees do not feel lost in the new environment anymore – all guidelines and information can be found directly on the intranet.
we achieved a user-friendly, attractive, intuitive and simple Intranet interface.
thanks to our agile approach, we have reached the specified framework of the project within given time, budget and quality level.
