Client / Technology Catalogue

About Technology Catalogue

Technology Catalogue is a Dutch Scale-up. Since 2018, Technology Catalogue is supporting companies in the energy sector with technology deployment. Their platform was developed based on the first-hand experiences of their founders that it is often difficult for decision makers to stay up to date on available technology-driven improvement opportunities for their business. This platform is a technology matchmaking platform for technology end-users and suppliers aiming to accelerate technology deployment and help the industry to reach net-zero goals.

Project Challenge

Technology Catalogue approached Eastern Enterprise to enhance and expand its platform features for the Energy Industry to provide a better end user experience.
  1. Suppliers and end-users were interacting offline once the match was made, taking them away from the platform.
  2. Offers/Discounts were to be added manually in the CRM system (ZOHO) for the registered client.
  3. New user registration for company subscription was not fully automated. Technology Catalogue had to go through the manual process for adding the users and sharing the access.
  4. The end-users were not able to share their problems/challenges and get solutions from suppliers.
  5. The suppliers could not easily add technologies to their subscription without support.

Our Solution

Eastern Enterprise along with Technology Catalogue managed all the above key challenges effectively:

  1. Notification and interaction center
    Notification and interaction center was introduced to boost the interaction of the users through platform. Notifications are
    sent to the users for the chat messages and when new technology is published on the platform.
  2. ZOHO Voucher Integration with Technology Catalogue platform
    The ZOHO Vouchers are integrated with the Technology Catalogue platform. The vouchers are fetched dynamically
    from ZOHO and are displayed/available to the user while taking up subscription on the platform.
  3. Introduction of SSO
    The SSO feature is implemented so the users from the client-side can directly login through the platform using their own
    company credentials. The new user will be registered automatically upon the first successful login.
  4. Introduction to Challenges module
    A new module/feature is introduced where end-users can post real problems /challenges they’re facing. It’s then notified
    to the suppliers with matching capabilities so that they can look at it & provide solutions towards it. They can even get on
    a chat where they can discuss the detailed solutions.
  5. Development of a feature to purchase additional technologies & Development of integrated messaging functionality
    With the new experience, suppliers can just add additional technologies to their existing plan and pay for what they are
    using without the need for upgrading plans or manual support from the Technology Catalogue team.
