In the drug review and development process, the formal issues alone can
generate costs in the billions of dollars. The challenge was to create an
easier and safer workflow documents system - one that would automate
elements of the process of reviewing and approving innovations in the
pharmaceutical industry.
The challenges were around the development process that required full
auditability of source code and technical architecture. The work done had to
be documented in a very accurate manner, allowing for further certification
of the platform to process sensitive data such as electronic health records.

Create an easy and safe workflow documents system to automate
reviews and approvals of innovations in the drug development process.
After consultations, the Espeo team decided to create a system using
the Vert.x framework and the Elasticsearch engine. This included
efficient search comparison, approval and record-keeping mechanisms
for documents likely to undergo thousands of changes. Thanks to the
components used, the product now boasts an efficient and precise
search and comparison mechanism and makes work with regulated
content much more hassle-free. What’s more, the system was adapted
for integration with additional platforms offering disk space (like Box.
com).

BioMensio builds international research programs and intellectual property
of more than 15 patent families. The company’s product is a handheld
reader and diagnostics-as-a-service application that can detect the
presence of drugs in saliva samples within minutes. This is especially useful
in point-of-need food safety tests or drug testing.

Business challengesBioMensio’s handheld readers and fluid cartridges quickly analyze human
saliva for illicit drugs. Users first load a fluid cartridge with the test sample
and the application detects illicit drugs or other substances. Results are then
securely stored to the BioMensio analytics database for easy data access. This
allows law enforcement, for example, to test suspects on the spot rather than
sending test samples to external laboratories.
Of course, the entries are anonymized statistics of different variables such as
location, drugs, person, etc. The business challenge was to create a system
that will securely store data and provide user management solutions. This
data is also exchanged with legacy customer information systems. Sensitive
data collected by the app is only shared with a restricted group of users.
Biomensio Analytics solution can deliver analytics results data to customer’s
legacy systems. Data can be anonymized when needed for statistical
purposes. A customized data transfer between BioMensio and the customer’s
legacy systems can be built if needed. Analytical data can be directly viewed
and managed from BioMensio’s solution but a subset of data can be stored
to legacy systems’ databases. A customized data transfer can be used for
additional functions between BioMensio and legacy systems.

Our goal was to develop a system where the company’s devices upload
data automatically to the BioMensio data management system. This data
has to be kept securely but also has to be easily accessible for analysis.
Espeo prepared the documentation of the administration panel and
application prototype. The architecture had to be well thought out in
terms of data security, the ability to connect with other systems, as well as
the feature of downloading data from separate devices.Product Design

GHPGHP is a blockchain-based health platform that harnesses both a public
and private blockchain to grant users instant access to their medical
records. Developed by medical professionals, the solution combines
practical medical industry knowledge with cutting-edge technology. GHP's
plan includes a Security Token Offering.

We had to deliver on-site consulting with the team to determine the best
way to integrate blockchain technology to manage medical records and
launch an STO. A big challenge was to draw up an architecture review with
key insights and a roadmap for the product's phases.
The complexity of the healthcare system and the sensitivity of medical data
proved challenging. A public blockchain would run the STO, while a private
blockchain would control access to sensitive data. Planned for a launch in
Portugal, GHP hopes to expand into other countries. Medical data handling
differs in each jurisdiction so each country would need its own version.

Espeo's involvment
During our time in Portugal with GHP, we came to fully grasp the
business model and estimate the cost of the MVP. The project proposal
included both private and public blockchains to give multiple levels
of security and to control access. We not only had to consider the
technical challenges involved in tokenomics, but also in handling
sensitive data. With all the necessary features, we were able to give our
recommendations for how best to develop this blockchain solution.
Espeo consultants drew up an elaborate architecture review for GHP's
medical data management system. In it, a detailed diagram of the
project outlines the ways the company can put blockchain technology
to good use.

Inscripta is a dictation and transcription service provider that uses artificial
intelligence to transcribe voice with 94% accuracy. The application is a tool
primarily for healthcare professionals and practitioners. With the help of the
Inscripta mobile app, doctors can easily dictate their notes from a patient
visit and save it to the electronic health record system automatically.

Inscripta
Business challengesDictation is the quickest and easiest form of saving patient data. Inscripta
processes and then delivers a transcribed version of the records to review
and store. The challenge was to create a user-friendly application to do this
seamlessly.
Technology challengesThe iOS app was created with a mixture of Swift and Objective-C in order to use
the benefits of both technologies. The data is stored using Apple’s Core Data
framework, and also a sophisticated voice visualization scheme was implemented.
The android app was equally challenging. In order to achieve the desired effect,
including sound visualization and fingerprint authentication, we had to employ
Java and many of the most popular libraries, such as Retrofit, Dagger, GreenDao,
FingerprintAuth, and Picasso. The app’s design is a very good example
of the MVP and its extensive set of tests were prepared using Kotlin.

As mobility is the key to the idea behind the project, we were tasked
with developing two modern, native mobile apps for iOs and Android.
With iOS we're continuing from the point where we are at the moment
adding new features and testing functions. With Android development
we proposed the following technologies:
• MVP achitecture — Most popular in Android;
• Retrofit — Most popular to API request;
• Firebase Messaging — For notification, supported by Google;
• Crashlytics — For reporting bugs.
