Basestone: Mobile-first Construction Collaboration

Case Study: Basestone

Basestone and MeltStudio teamed up to transform Basestone’s web and mobile collaboration platform—empowering engineers to review drawings, track issues, and manage project data in real time. This project improved field-office workflows, cut down administrative overhead, and accelerated project delivery.

THE CHALLENGE

Engineering Teams Needed Real-Time Mobile Tools.

Before Melt’s involvement, Basestone’s platform lacked seamless offline support, scalable architecture, and smooth UX across devices. Engineers faced delays when marking up drawings or logging issues on-site, which hindered efficiency and collaboration between field and office.

INITIAL STATE

OUR SOLUTION

Modern Full‑Stack Rewrite With Mobile‑First UX

Requirements

Simplification

We audited Basestone’s legacy features—drawing annotations, issue workflows, and offline data sync—and defined a streamlined full-stack JS/TypeScript architecture. Clear specs helped avoid scope creep and ensured alignment.

Application

Building

Our team built a unified web and iOS/Android experience using React, React Native, and Node.js. We integrated real-time updates, drawing markups, offline-first syncing, and a reporting dashboard, reducing admin effort on-site.

Prototype

Release

We launched a functional MVP within three months: engineers could markup drawings, log and assign issues in real time from the field, and sync data—even offline. Early beta testers reported immediate productivity gains.

DELIVER STATE

CUSTOMER FEEDBACK

Enhanced Efficiency and User Satisfaction

Post-launch, Basestone saw field engineers spend significantly less time on administrative work—logging issues, syncing, and reporting became seamless. Real-time dashboards improved transparency, helping projects stay on time and on budget.

Hi guys, I was reviewing the full Terik and Tess flow — first off, thanks for the effort to get everything done by EOY, really appreciated and very exsitng to see it live.

Overall, the flow makes total sense. We’ll likely need to come up with a new “recipe” for it, and there are a few UI tweaks and small functional changes we should work through.
