Kemp Solutions

A cloud-based school management system is the main product of Kemp Solutions, a software company that also does web and mobile work for other clients. Its main product is an education ERP suite that brings a school's administration, teaching and communication into one platform. The company says it has been in the IT industry for about thirteen years and has completed more than 150 projects across a range of sectors.

One platform for the whole school

The school ERP covers more than 40 modules, and the company describes it as a way for a school to move from scattered systems to one integrated operation. Class and assignment management, grading, attendance, staff records and finances all sit inside the modules. Each module is linked to the others, so information entered in one part of the system is available in the rest, and users can reach it at any time.

Connected hardware and payments

The ERP is integrated with SMS messaging, barcode and smart card systems, and biometric identification. It also connects to payment gateways and to bus tracking. The company says the system runs at 99.99 per cent uptime, and it presents the reduction in paperwork as a saving for the school in both money and the environment.

The mobile app for parents and teachers

A mobile app for Android and iOS is fully integrated with the website and the ERP. Parents can follow their children's progress, attendance and assignments, and staff can see live data about users as it changes. The app is described as the way families stay informed without waiting for a printed report.

E-learning and visitor management

The e-learning platform gives students learning materials, a place to submit assignments, grades and live classes. A separate visitor management tool checks visitors in by QR code, and the reports and analytics module gives the school real-time data about its operations.

How the company works with clients

The company describes its approach as careful planning followed by delivery and follow-up. Before a web project begins, the client can see each step of the process and the estimated time for it, and it receives regular summaries of progress. The company says it scopes each project before work begins and agrees a fixed amount for it, so that hours do not run over without the client knowing. It also says it provides training for a client's staff before launch, so that they can take ownership of the finished system.

Work for other sectors

Beyond education, the company builds user interface and user experience design, web and mobile applications, and digital products for clients in various industries. It says its clients span several markets and that many of them have stayed with it for years.
