EstufaCEC — Award-Winning University Project
An award-winning university project that transformed a farming game concept into a real-world service idea combining gamification, food production, logistics and low-code software.
Context & approach
EstufaCEC was the winning project of the Laboratório de Sistemas II challenge during the first semester of 2019/2020.
The team worked with Efacec, Do It Lean and OutSystems to transform an online farming game concept into a useful real-life service.
Users could rent space in a greenhouse or vegetable garden, choose what to plant and harvest, follow production in real time through an OutSystems low-code application, and receive harvested products at home.
The project combined software development, market research, business model design, investment analysis, project management and a physical prototype.
Outcomes
- Won the LSIS II university challenge.
- Developed an innovative business concept with real industry partners.
- Built a low-code application concept and physical prototype.
- Applied software, management, market research, investment analysis and systems engineering knowledge in one project.
