Sunduza Architectural

The problem

An architectural and drafting practice wins work through enquiries and consultations. Without a site of its own, leads arrive scattered across messages, and there is no single place to show past projects or follow up with a prospective client.

How it works

A full-stack lead-generation site built through GrowthCore Solutions:

• Public site — services, a project portfolio, client testimonials, a contact form and consultation booking, with a POPIA privacy policy.
• Admin dashboard — a single-owner back office: a bookings pipeline with a status state machine, project and testimonial management, a message inbox and site settings.
• API — public lead-capture endpoints, public reads for projects and testimonials, protected admin endpoints and a health check.
• Notifications — a scheduled worker sends email through Resend, protected by a cron secret.

Engineering decisions

• Layered code — routes, then services, then repositories, with shared Zod schemas used by both the browser and the server.
• Rate limiting on the public forms with Upstash Redis, and an in-memory fallback in development.
• Branching discipline — work lands on an integration branch sprint by sprint; the main branch changes only through release pull requests once staging is verified.
• Tests — Vitest unit tests and Playwright end-to-end tests, with CI and governance workflows on every pull request.
