Vendor Response
This document outlines our comprehensive proposal for the Milbotix Care Show Demo, including technical specifications, team structure, timeline, costs, and delivery assurances. We propose a robust solution built on TypeScript, React, and Electron, designed to showcase Milbotix's healthcare technology effectively at the upcoming Care Show event. Our team is prepared to commence work immediately with a defined strategy to ensure successful delivery by the 30th September deadline.
Proposed Technical Stack & Architecture
Technology Stack
- Framework: TypeScript + React + Electron (single-binary desktop application)
- Build Tool: Vite for faster development builds
- Charting: Recharts with D3 for custom visualisations
- State Management: Zustand for simulation state, React Query for data handling
Architecture Overview
- Main Process: Electron shell for file system operations and multi-display management
- Renderer Process: Modular React application structure
- Simulation Engine: Separate Node module with deterministic scenario engine
- Data Layer: JSON/CSV parser with file watcher for hot-swapping datasets
Our technical approach prioritises a single-binary desktop application using Electron, ensuring reliable deployment across Windows 11 and, subsequently, macOS environments. The architecture separates concerns between the main Electron process handling system operations and the React-based renderer displaying the interface. The simulation engine runs as an independent Node.js module, generating deterministic data for consistent demonstrations.
Configuration is externalised to allow non-technical updates to strings and parameters, facilitating quick adjustments before or during the Care Show. This architecture supports the multi-display requirement, with the main application controlling the visitor-facing interface while simultaneously managing the reassurance panel on a secondary display.
Team Structure & Availability
Team Structure
Our dedicated project team consists of experienced professionals specialising in healthcare technology demonstrations. While specific team members will be confirmed by Bang, we commit to providing:
- 1 Senior React/TypeScript/Electron/Node.js Developer (Lead)
- 1 UI/UX Designer with healthcare experience
