Project Background

This project was focused on Alexa integration for our customer’s smart home appliance suite. Our customer’s business objective was to bring innovation and automation to the consumer’s home where simple voice commands could start, stop or change the settings of a variety of their products including coffee makers, microwave ovens, cooking ranges, washers and dryers. Furthermore, by leveraging Amazon Integrations, by simply talking to Alexa the consumer could not only control these appliances but also reorder via Amazon Dash when supplies are running low.

Our Scope
  • Requirements Gathering for Remote Device Management of Household Appliances
  • Architecture Development Leveraging Amazon Lambda and Amazon IoT
  • Alexa Voice Service Integration
  • Alexa Skill Management API
  • Development of Smart Home Skills
  • Development of Device Hub for Smart Appliance Suite
  • POC Development and Testing
  • Project Documentation and Post Delivery Support
What we did

The business objectives and the marketplace mandate for integrating Alexa in our customer’s smart home appliance suite were very clearly defined by their top management. We put together a team led by our veterans in the consumer space and they were supported by a very capable team with engineering experience in home appliances and Alexa integration. We had a very structured process for knowledge acquisition from the customer’s engineering, purchasing, sales and marketing personnel. Once the implementation, testing and validation were successfully completed we had one of the highest ratings from our customer.

Few words from our client

We were amazed with the enthusiasm and the knowledge of CREATIVE’s delivery team. They took their time to fully understand our business objectives for integrating Alexa into our smart home appliance suite. They asked all the right questions and once we were on the same page, they pretty much handled the whole project independently with minimal shadow cost from our side. They successfully completed the project on time and within budget. CREATIVE provided us substantial cost and time savings. They have the right attitude and they are a joy to work with. We value our continuing proud partnership with CREATIVE.
