Seven University Departments. One Unified Real-Time Platform. Built in Under a Year.

Disconnected class schedules, office hours, and syllabi across seven departments were creating manual coordination overhead for faculty, staff, and administrators. in-school unified them all into a single real-time platform in one year with a team of four engineers.

The Challenge

A major research university was managing class schedules, faculty office hours, and course syllabi across seven departments using disconnected, siloed systems. Students, faculty, and administrators had no single place to access accurate, current information — resulting in manual coordination overhead, scheduling conflicts, and a poor experience for all stakeholders. The institution needed a unified logistics platform that could serve all seven departments from a single source of truth, with real-time data accessible to every user type.

The Solution

in-school delivered a four-engineer team over a one-year engagement to design and build a unified university logistics platform. The system consolidated class schedule management, faculty office hours, and syllabus distribution across all seven departments into a single real-time platform with role-appropriate views for students, faculty, and administrators. Data integrations were built to pull from existing departmental sources, eliminating the need for manual re-entry while ensuring all stakeholders accessed a single authoritative version of the information.

The Result

Seven departments fully unified on a single real-time platform within one year. Manual coordination overhead eliminated. Students, faculty, and administrators now access class schedules, office hours, and syllabi from a single, always-current source.
