Client Overview
Client Name: Lakshya
Industry: Education and Training (ACCA & CA Courses)
Location: India
Challenge: Lakshya faced challenges in managing their website effectively, leading to difficulties in updating content and ensuring secure access for administrators. The lack of a streamlined content management system hindered their ability to provide an optimal user experience and maintain a cohesive online presence.
The Challenge
Lakshya encountered significant pain points in managing their online presence effectively. Their existing website lacked a user-friendly content management system, which made updating course information, news, and other content a cumbersome process. This inefficiency resulted in outdated information being displayed, negatively impacting user engagement and trust.
Additionally, the absence of secure access controls meant that sensitive data was at risk, making it crucial for Lakshya to implement a solution that ensured both security and convenience. The inability to manage individual components of the website with ease was holding them back from delivering a seamless user experience and effectively promoting their courses. Thus, they needed a robust content management system to streamline operations, enhance security, and improve overall website functionality.
Our Solution
For Lakshya, a leading institute for ACCA & CA courses in India, we developed a comprehensive Content Management System (CMS) to streamline website management and enhance user experience.
Technology that are used :
Backend: PHP
Database: SQL Server
Frontend: React.js
Hosting:Cloud-based solution for scalability and reliability

Timeline for Implementation:
The project was completed in a structured timeline of approximately 12 weeks, which included the following phases:
1. Requirement Gathering and Planning: 2 weeks
2. Design and Development: 6 weeks
3. Testing and Quality Assurance: 2 weeks
4. Deployment and Training: 2 weeks
This comprehensive solution not only meets Lakshya’s current needs but also positions them for future growth, ensuring they remain a leader in educational services.
How We Did It
1. Discovery:
The discovery phase focused on understanding Lakshya's requirements, goals, and challenges. Through a series of workshops and interviews with key stakeholders, the team gained valuable insights that helped define a clear project scope and feature set.
2. Design:
The objective was to create a user-friendly interface and a seamless user experience. To achieve this, wireframes and prototypes were developed using tools like Figma for visual design. The outcome was a set of approved UI/UX designs that aligned perfectly with Lakshya’s branding.
3. Development:
The objective of the development phase was to build the CMS and integrate the required functionalities. This involved backend development using PHP and setting up the SQL Server, while the frontend was developed with React.js to ensure a responsive interface. Key features such as course management, user registration, and payment processing were implemented. The result was a fully functional CMS, ready for testing.
4. Testing:
The objective of the testing phase was to ensure software quality and functionality. This was achieved by conducting unit testing, integration testing, and user acceptance testing (UAT), with tools like Selenium used for automated testing. As a result, bugs were identified and resolved, ensuring a stable and reliable system.
5. Deployment:
The objective of the deployment phase was to launch the CMS and provide training to Lakshya's team. The application was successfully deployed on a cloud hosting platform, and training sessions were conducted to guide admin users on managing the system. This resulted in the successful launch of the new CMS, empowering Lakshya to efficiently manage their website.
Tools Used:
- Project Management: Asana for task management and progress tracking.
- Design: Figma for wireframing and UI/UX design.
- Testing: manual testing procedures.
- Communication: Slack for team collaboration and updates.
This structured approach ensured a smooth implementation process, resulting in a powerful and user-friendly CMS tailored to Lakshya’s specific needs.
The Results
The implementation of the new Content Management System (CMS) for Lakshya has resulted in significant improvements across various areas. Notably, there was a 30% increase in course enrollments, driven by the streamlined user experience and the addition of online enrollment capabilities, which attracted more students. Additionally, operational costs were reduced by 25% due to the automation of administrative tasks, minimizing manual effort and resource allocation. The enhanced user engagement also led to a 40% rise in user interactions, as the improved website navigation made it easier for visitors to access information.
