About The Company

The Client’s organization is a Software and IT solutions company based out of Birmingham, Alabama. As an organization, they provide IT solutions to different firms and organizations.

Team Composition

The team deployed for the client consisted of dozens of developers allocated in different phases throughout the engagement, with the main SPOCs being the business analysts and project managers.

The Problem Statement

The client wanted a dedicated set of developers to assist their In-house team to build a software solution. This requirement was an end to end solution development. They needed to stand up dozens of engineers and skills to support the development lifecycle and steer the custom software platform through different stages of product development – outlines, development, planning, and product deployment.

This meant allocation of an entire unit – comprising of DevOps, Full stack developers, Business analysts, a Project manager, and a SCRUM master which would not have been a viable action domestically within time frame or duration of this development.

The Challenge

For this particular assignment, the client had clear requirements. And they had a precise set of tenets that they needed their software partner to espouse.

  • A Team that had technical expertise across multiple tech stacks including iOS, Web, Cloud solutions: The premise for this was to maintain a coherent sense of collaboration and make it easier for the client’s team to track and map the progress.
  • The client needed a team that could bring in proven SaaS and product development expertise. There was a directive for project managers to guide the autonomous team of developers.
  • The client took a passively development role, empowering Netsmartz to spin up an adequate infrastructure to power their product, and to assemble and manage the remote team.

The Solution

For this specific custom software project, Netsmartz worked with the client’s internal team to develop software solutions, conduct life cycle testing, and production deployment. While the client’s in-house team authored the core set of requirements to create outlines for their products, the Netsmartz team was trusted to decide on the tech stack and other tools utilized for the product design and development stages.

Apart from designing mockups for their team to review, Netsmartz worked towards establishing an architecture implemented across the platform. Upon securing the client’s approval, Netsmartz’s team proceeded with the development phase, implementing the client’s preferred functionalities and design elements.
