Roman Motylev, Aigul Orazdurdyeva, Daniil Koldyshev and Bogdan Pismarkin
SPbGASU graduates 2025 of the Department of Construction Management —Bogdan Pismarkin, Aigul Orazdurdyeva, and Daniil Koldyshev—proved that a final qualifying work can be not only the final hurdle of study but also the beginning of a professional career. They presented their final qualifying work in the "Startup as a Diploma" format and, after having defended their project, continued working on it outside the university.
The initiative, started as part of their final qualifying work, was further developed and presented to the Leningrad Region Construction Committee. Accompanied by Roman Motylev, Head of the SPbGASU Department of Construction Management, PhD of Engineering Sciences, and Associate Professor, the graduates presented the project to Vitaly Lazutkin, Chairman of the Committee. This allowed the authors to consider their idea in the context of the real-world challenges of the construction industry.
The project involved creating a digital platform that connects migrant workers and construction companies engaged in industrial and civil construction.
The platform includes integration with government services for verifying documents and the legal status of workers, the implementation of a rating system, and the ability to place orders and select contractors—both individually and as part of established teams.
The solution architecture is focused on comprehensively addressing organizational issues related to human resource management in construction.
Currently, a mobile app with basic functionality has been developed: searching for specialists, verifying documents, and creating and coordinating teams. In the future, the team plans to expand the platform's capabilities by implementing calendar and resource planning tools, modules for smart assignment of contractors between sites and orders, and mechanisms for attracting workers from abroad, taking into account current legislation and migration registration requirements.
During the meeting, the relevant committee discussed current issues arising in the implementation of public construction projects. Those present paid particular attention to the labor shortage. The committee chair proposed elevating the SPbGASU graduate project to the level of a public service, which would help systematically address the challenges of organizing and distributing the workforce.
In the future, it is possible that graduates will interact with other specialized committees involved in the development of the construction industry in the Leningrad Region.
