Pat Dryburgh

In collaboration with Make IT Solutions, I had the opportunity to work with Modern Commodities Inc., a Calgary-based energy brokerage, to design and develop their new online trading system. This system empowers buyers and sellers of North American energy products with innovative price discovery and secure transaction capabilities.

Remote Collaboration

This initiative was conducted entirely remotely, leveraging digital communication tools to ensure seamless collaboration with both Modern Commodities Inc. and Make IT Solutions. This approach enabled efficient coordination across teams while maintaining a focus on delivering exceptional results.

Design and Development Approach

The design and development process prioritized functionality, usability, and scalability, ensuring the platform met the needs of its professional user base. Key aspects included:

  • User-Centric Design: An intuitive interface designed to facilitate smooth interactions between buyers and sellers in the energy market.
  • Responsive Layout: Optimized for use across devices of all sizes, ensuring accessibility for all users.
  • Brand Consistency: Incorporating Modern Commodities Inc.’s branding into the platform’s visual design to reflect professionalism and trustworthiness.

The platform’s front-end was built using React, enabling a dynamic, responsive, and efficient user experience. Key features included:

  • Real-Time Price Discovery: Allowing users to access up-to-date pricing information for energy products.
  • Secure Transaction Processing: Robust security measures were implemented to protect user data and ensure transaction integrity.
  • Scalability: The architecture was designed to accommodate future growth and the addition of new features.

Outcome

The Modern Commodities trading system launched successfully in 2022 was praised for its ease of use, reliability, and modern design. It now serves as a critical tool for Modern Commodities Inc., enabling the company’s brokers to connect buyers and sellers and solidifying their position as a trusted leader in the energy brokerage industry.

This project, delivered in collaboration with Make IT Solutions, showcases the effectiveness of remote collaboration, thoughtful design, and modern development practices in achieving impactful results.
