THE CHALLENGE
During the first quarter of 2013,
Corporación Favorita, the biggest
retailer in Ecuador and one of the
largest retailers in Latin America, was
looking for a partner to design and
develop their mobile strategy.
Corporación Favorita was looking for
quality, efficiency, subject matter
expertise, and fresh ideas for
reaching more customers through the
implementation of their mobile
strategy. By mid 2013, Devsu was
selected among various important
mobile development companies as
their partner to develop and
implement the company’s mobile
strategy.
Since then, Devsu has been working
closely with the corporation’s
marketing team not only to develop
high-quality mobile applications but
also to provide support and ideas to
increase their market share by
providing their clients with amazing
mobile tools that increase their
engagement with Corporación
Favorita’s brands.
THE SOLUTION
The Shopping Assistant application
for Supermaxi was the first mobile
application released. Supermaxi, the
most popular supermarket chain in
Ecuador, is the main brand of
Corporación Favorita.
The application was developed to
reach the three most popular
smartphone platforms in Ecuador:
Android, iPhone, and BlackBerry.
Devsu provided all the expertise and
guidance to create an engaging and
clean user experience for each of the
abovementioned mobile platforms.
Devsu’s user interface experts
worked together with the client in
order to create a modern, easy to
use, and useful application, always
following best practices and the
guidelines defined for each of the
operating systems.
After the functionalities and user
experience were designed, Devsu’s
development team built a native
application for each OS, ensuring
maximum performance and usability.

THE CHALLENGE
The Colombian publishing group
ICCK was looking for a partner to
completely redesign and ramp up the
Web presence for the biggest music
portal in Latin America, Shock.co.
ICCK was looking for a partner that
could bring product and software
development expertise in an agile
setting. After a thorough vetting and
selection process, Devsu was
selected as the agency to take on this
challenge.
Devsu worked with the Shock.co
team through a lean and rapid
iteration process, which allowed both
teams to achieve fast results and
have a fluid product development
process. The end product was
released to the public only four
months after the project started.
MAIN FEATURES
The old Shock.co portal was built in
Drupal 6. The new version, developed
by Devsu, was built in Drupal 7. All

THE CHALLENGE
Auto Meter Products Inc., a leading
company on automotive
instrumentation and solutions,
deemed it necessary to reach their
market directly through an engaging
solution for car enthusiasts who
wanted to create customized gauges.
Auto Meter needed a tool to allow
their clients to customize and order
gauges with any combination of
colors, materials, fonts, and textures.
The process of ordering had to be
integrated into their production
system so they could quickly
manufacture the user created gauges
and deliver them worldwide.
Additionally, the platform had to be
flexible, allowing them to configure
different pricing for every option and
to configure new materials, models,
and colors to continuously update
their product offering.
THE SOLUTION
Devsu developed a powerful and
easy to use website that allows users
to create and order their own
customized gauges with just a few
clicks.
Built over Drupal, some of its features
include a secure e-commerce
platform, an easy to use CMS,
integration with UPS for order
tracking, and displaying of
information that allows their
manufacturing process to rapidly
produce and deliver the custom
gauges.
13. THE
RESULTS
Immediately after launching in November
2011, the AutoMeterCustomShop.com
website helped Auto Meter Products Inc. to
dramatically increase the sales of custom
gauges to their customers. In just a few
months, the initial investment for this Web
application was recovered.
The cost of selling the gauges has reduced
significantly since the user does all the
customization, and the whole process to get
this information is now automated. With the
new Web application, there is no need for
extra overhead to go through the parts and
accessories required to build a custom gauge.
AutoMeterCustomShop.com continues to offer
new gauge options, and it is the only known
platform that allows clients to buy this type of
product with such a high level of
customization, making Auto Meter the
absolute leader in this vertical market.
