St. Petersburg State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering (SPbGASU) Construction Management Department graduates of 2025—Bogdan Pismarkin, Aigul Orazdurdyeva, and Daniil Koldyshev—proved in practice that a final qualifying work can be not only the final point of study but also the beginning of a professional career. They presented their final qualifying work in the format "Startup as a Diploma" and after defending they continued working on the project outside the university.
The initiative, developed as part of their final thesis, was further developed and presented to the Leningrad Region Construction Committee. Accompanied by Roman Motylev, Head of the Construction Management Department at SPbGASU, PhD in Engineering, 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 real-world challenges facing the construction industry.
The project involved creating a digital platform connecting migrant workers and construction companies engaged in industrial and civil construction. The platform includes integration with government services for verifying workers' documents and legal status, implementing a rating system, and enabling the placement of orders and selection of contractors—both individually and as part of established teams. The solution's architecture is designed to comprehensively address organizational issues related to labor 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. Participants 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.
