Perpetual developed a mobile solution for managing the medication regimens for tuberculosis patients. They built features such as text notifications, schedules, and an admin dashboard.
Perpetual’s head of product development was directly involved and handled most of the work for this project, which has inspired other similar programs to take place. They’re an efficient vendor that was able to deliver in a short period of time.
