A division capable of responding quickly and efficiently to its colleagues’ needs. Smoothly integrated into the business, strategically deployed for working alongside all corporate areas and able to develop applications that employ the most innovative solutions, including those involving the world of artificial intelligence.
How development takes place
We begin by listing out a customer’s needs, which we then classify and analyse to identify the key issues on which the creation of the made-to-measure software is to be based.
“From the development of applications to microservices, what we are seeking is the technological and innovative route for satisfying a specific need”.
This is then followed by the real planning stage, whose length depends on the complexity of the solution. Finally comes the testing, the last step before the distribution of the product.
“We often find” says Mancuso, “that our colleagues don’t believe that a number of daily challenges can be overcome through the use of AI. But that’s how it is. Today we can do things that were thought unthinkable just a year ago, for example by using pre-trained models that enable us to save a large amount of time. In such a competitive market the challenges increase from one day to the next, but having an in-house division dedicated to technology provides us with unparalleled assistance in tackling these”.
A solution for every need
Our aim is to take solutions to the table that are more far-reaching than just a specific request. “We want to simplify and optimise activities, and starting from only a small need you can often find several ways of improving an entire process”, Martino continues.
At the present time ARECneprix uses a variety of solutions, while others are at the development stage and will be implemented during 2024.
One of the most interesting of those currently in use is a location intelligence solution. “Location intelligence is a cornerstone for us, especially in the real estate sphere. We have created a platform that analyses geospatial data in real time and converts this into valuable information.
Another important initiative on which ARECneprix is concentrating its resources is the use of generative artificial intelligence for the ‘facilitated reading’ of various kinds of document: we have tested this advanced technology for improving the understanding of texts to enhance the interpretative ability of our models, in this way driving machines to a new level of text comprehension”.
In addition, our objective has been to create not only isolated solutions but also a complete ecosystem. “Our work focuses on the synergy between the diverse advanced solutions, all built into a single application solution. This approach aims at supporting the main business processes and functions taken as a whole. We have developed another application solution that acts as the bond between the various implemented components of artificial intelligence. The intention is to create a dynamic environment that does not only efficiently manage the processes but also provides fundamental support for our core activities”.
The importance of teamwork
Teamwork: that is the central theme according to Martino Mancuso, Head of Analytics and Development.
“We have a multi-disciplinary team composed of technical profiles working alongside a series of functional figures: the sum of all this is a set of skills held by people ranging from physicists to IT experts, passing by way of those with abilities of a more engineering nature such as myself”.
“The best part of being a member of a company such as ARECneprix is the possibility of working in close synergy with all of its business activities: we assist colleagues with their daily tasks, we listen to them, we get to know their needs and we propose solutions. In short, we are an integral part of the process, having a truly collaborative, but at the same time nimble, approach that leads to the creation of effective synergies”.
