Quick Summary

A leading US multifamily hospitality provider sought to modernize its digital platform to overcome escalating costs and an inefficient, fragmented resident experience.

  • Engineered a proprietary, cloud-native digital platform (using React.js and Golang on Google Cloud) to replace reliance on third-party booking systems, streamlining reservations and payments.
  • Consolidated fragmented operations by migrating and integrating multiple property management systems (PMS) into Yardi PMS and building a custom module for automated access control (SaltoKS and Stayntouch).
  • Achieved a significant 70% annual reduction in cloud and SaaS spend through infrastructure right-sizing and comprehensive third-party service audits.
  • Boosted conversion rates by 20%, enhanced security with Shift4 payment integration, and established a scalable foundation for market expansion.
     

Client Profile

Based in the US, the client is a leader in urban multifamily hospitality, focused on blending property management with premium guest experiences. Their digital-first model relies on integrating smart building technologies, such as SaltoKS smartlocks, and partnerships like Airbnb.

Challenges: Fragmented, Costly Ecosystem

The client faced operational and financial challenges that directly impacted their profitability and service quality:

  • Exorbitant Infrastructure Costs: High and unsustainable spend on cloud services (Google Cloud) and SaaS tools (Contentful, Cloudinary, Cloudflare).
  • Poor Booking Experience: Reliance on external booking platforms resulted in friction, a lack of branding control, and limited flexibility in pricing and inventory management.
  • Operational Incompatibility: Building management systems (like smart locks) and hospitality systems were fragmented, complicating access management and resident journeys.
  • Security Risk: Existing system vulnerabilities posed a threat of potential breaches in transactional data.

A Proprietary, Cloud-Native PropTech Engine

QBurst engineered a comprehensive, cloud-native digital platform to centralize operations, drive down costs, and deliver a seamless, integrated user experience.

  • Proprietary Booking Engine: Developed a custom, React.js-based e-commerce channel supported by centralized Golang APIs; this eliminated reliance on external booking platforms, providing full control over pricing, branding, and user experience.
  • Cloud Cost Optimization: Performed infrastructure right-sizing and implemented a cloud-native architecture on Google Cloud.
  • Streamlined Integrations: Consolidated multiple property management systems (including Entrata) into the centralized Yardi PMS, and developed a custom integration module to automate the critical function of room access management, bridging the SaltoKS smart locks with the Stayntouch hospitality operations system.
  • Enhanced Security: Integrated Shift4 for secure payment processing, ensuring encryption and compliance for all hotel and rental transactions.

Technical Highlights

The platform was built for scale, performance, and integration complexity:

  • Modern Stack: Used React.js and TypeScript for the responsive frontend and Golang for the powerful, performant backend engine, with PostgreSQL as the core database.
  • Centralized API Engine: Created APIs to manage property exploration, reservations, and seamless integration with critical external partners (Airbnb, Yardi, Stayntouch, Iterable, etc.).
  • Smart Access Control: Developed a custom integration bridge to automate access management between SaltoKS smart locks and hospitality operations, improving operational efficiency.
  • Scalable Cloud Foundation: Hosted on Google Cloud with a design featuring dynamic scaling, high availability, and auto-failover to handle peak demand during leasing and booking cycles.

Impact: Delivering Quantifiable Financial and Operational Benefits

  • 70% Annual Cost Savings: Achieved through aggressive cloud right-sizing and SaaS service audits, freeing up capital for strategic expansion.
  • 20% Boost in Conversion Rates: Resulted from the custom booking engine, which simplified the reservation flow and enhanced user experience.
  • Improved Security and Trust: Shift4 integration ensured transaction encryption and compliance, strengthening customer trust.
  • Scalable and Flexible Platform: The streamlined, cloud-native architecture provides the foundation necessary to expand quickly to new markets and integrate future smart-building technologies seamlessly.
