Bridging the Gap Between Quality Construction and Accessible Service

The home-building process is often viewed as overwhelming, opaque, and prone to delays. Many buyers struggle with hidden costs and a lack of communication during the construction phase. Shape Homes was founded to challenge this narrative by making transparency a “standard inclusion.” Codeflies worked to showcase how Shape Homes leverages digital transparency and professional efficiency. By providing tools that allow clients to trace every stage of their build online with photographic evidence, Shape Homes replaces anxiety with confidence, ensuring a hassle-free experience from soil test to handover.

"Shape Homes is a very thorough and professional builder. They completed the build within 6 months, and every stage could be traced online with photos. The communication was consistent and hassle-free."

Our Project Challenges

1

Hiring the right team

Hiring the right people with just the right skills and experience in food e-commerce was essential to fulfill the nitty-gritty of the requirement and achieve desired results. Our team, with complete detailing, selected people that were not just experts in their respective fields but also highly professional and responsive to the client’s needs.

2

Reducing time to market
In order to handle competitive pressure, it was crucial to reduce the app’s time to market. To meet the need, we placed our team onsite to help bridge the gap in understanding the requirement and connect cross-functional teams to brainstorm the solution while keeping in mind the current legacy system and its limitations.

3

Offering high personalization
In order to make people order from the KFC food delivery application in place of aggregator apps, it was critical to double down on the customer experience. To achieve the same, we offered a high level of personalization in the app and made it easy for customers to view their order history and make payment through multiple gateway options.

Ensuring Financial Stability in a Volatile Market

The construction industry can be unpredictable. We highlighted that Shape Homes is backed by ID_CORP, a group with an impressive $5 billion portfolio. This financial backing gives clients the peace of mind that their builder has the scale and reputation to deliver on their promises, regardless of market shifts.

2

Maintaining Quality at Speed

Completing a high-quality home in 6 months requires incredible synchronization. We focused on a workflow that emphasizes "doing things the right way" through strict project management and a proven network of trades, resulting in builds with minimal defects reported by independent inspectors.

3

Building Trust Through Radical Transparency

For many investors, building in a different city or region can be stressful. We helped promote a digital-first communication strategy where every milestone is documented. By allowing clients to see their home grow through a dedicated online portal, Shape Homes builds a relationship based on proof, not just promises.
