Modernizing the Pode Morar Portal for Direcional Engenharia

Direcional is a construction company founded in Belo Horizonte with 40 years of history, helping Brazilians achieve homeownership.

The company is today a reference in developments under the Casa Verde e Amarela program, operating across all three income brackets of the program and connecting families earning up to R$7,000 a month to the subsidies and financing terms it offers.

From land acquisition to construction, Direcional operates with accountability and quality, delivering modern, functional developments tailored to each customer profile.

The challenge

The project’s direct requirement was to build a platform that would bring Direcional closer to its customers, offering cutting-edge, easy-to-use technology without giving up integration with legacy systems such as Salesforce and its ERP.

Objective

Fully modernize the Pode Morar Portal — Direcional’s customer portal — so it would become the builder’s own technology asset, ready to integrate whatever the market offers next, while keeping its ties to systems already in production.

Solution delivered

We applied best practices in development, software quality, and DevOps. The project was built on our partnership with AWS: servers are hosted in the cloud, in Docker containers, with Sensedia’s API Gateway handling orchestration and the web interface served through AWS CloudFront’s CDN.

We delivered a fully redesigned, modern product focused on value, usability, and end-customer satisfaction. The new portal also raised the bar on code quality and on development and tooling-decoupling practices.

The entire development process was completed on schedule, without any overtime from our professionals — confirming the commitment and quality behind the planning of every project.
