NEO Project

The Sports Council of Baix Llobregat (CEBLLOB) is a private non-profit organization, created in 1981, whose main objective is to encourage, promote and organize physical activity and sports in its territorial area, i.e., the Baix Llobregat region.

All sports activities organized by CEBLLOB are managed through its own information system called NEO. Its versatility allows to manage in a comprehensive way the competitions of different sports modalities, whether individual or collective, such as basketball, cross country, soccer, skating, handball, field hockey, etc.

In parallel, the NEO system is integrated with the Juega Verd Play mobile platform. This platform is the competition model of the School Games of the Sports Council of Baix Llobregat, launched since the 2013-14 academic year, and that bets to make a radical change in the current model of school sport with a very clear purpose: education in values through sports practice of all groups involved.

In this project inLab FIB is in charge of updating the NEO, through the design and development of a new platform, adequate to the new requirements that have arisen at CEBLLOB over the last few years, using current and appropriate technologies. In addition, maintaining and adjusting the integration with the Juega Verd Play platform within this new system.

Within this new information system, a wide range of functionalities are offered, such as the possibility of integrally managing everything related to the different profiles of the users of the system, the competitions in all their sports variants, the registrations of participants in these competitions, the reports that are generated through the data, etc.

In addition, it is a complete tool for CEBLLOB member entities. They will be able to register for specific championships, manage their participants and teams, and easily consult the calendars and classifications of their sports activities, among other things.

The new NEO brings significant improvements to the user experience of the platform, facilitating the navigability between the different functionalities and bringing dynamism to the presentation of the necessary information. Being a high set of functionalities, different User Experience (UX) techniques are applied, providing an intuitive and easy to use system.

InLab, as part of its commitment to quality services, applies an extensive infrastructure that supports the Agile methodology. Through different Extreme Programming techniques, extra value is added to the resulting product. Test Driven Development (TDD) helps to efficiently develop more robust software, using unit tests and integration tests of the different layers. In addition, the platform is deployed through continuous integration tools, resulting in ease of incremental product delivery.
