First PO meeting

The first meeting between the customer and the team was held in Salo 19.11.2019.
At the beginning of the meeting we got an introduction to the company and their workflow. We were told the goal of the project and why they need it. Ultimately they want to automate their warehouse and production line by automated forklifts and the goal for this project is to create a web based application that can take user input when a certain task is completed and an API for this application that the automated forklifts can read and operate accordingly. At the moment their workers waste time when they have to manually drive the forklifts from place A to place B. After preliminary discussion about the outcome of the project we got a tour of the facilities and we saw more clearly why this project is necessary for the automation process. In the end of our meeting we went through the agreements and discussed more of the technical side of how we are going to be developing the application. They have an existing web UI that gathers information from their company ERP that is made with Angular and we came to the conclusion that we will be using Angular for our project as well. We agreed to have a meeting in the near future, possibly next week, with the company that provides the automated forklifts so that we get a better understanding on how to build the API for them.
