Project Summary

A market-leading aviation company hired Ascent to implement a modern web-based HMI MVP to replace an outdated C++/Qt FAT client. The vendor designed and implemented a Node.js backend and Angular frontend, integrated with third-party and core systems, and delivered a deployable MVP plus a continuous delivery pipeline and deployment training for the client's engineering team.

Key Challenges

  • Implement a web frontend of an existing FAT client (C++, Qt) within a short timeframe
  • Lack of dedicated in-house web expertise to define the web tech-stack and implement an MVP
  • Replace an outdated HMI with a modern, future-proof web architecture that meets UX/UI standards

Project Deliverables

  • Highly available, scalable Node.js backend
  • Angular-based frontend for real-time data rendering
  • Continuous delivery pipeline (CI/CD)
  • Deployment support and training for system engineering team

Project Solution

The vendor defined the web tech stack and implemented a Node.js-based backend and an Angular frontend capable of rendering large amounts of real-time data, integrated with proprietary and standardized third-party systems and the client's core backend. Parkside also provided DevOps and deployment support, implemented a continuous delivery pipeline, and trained the client's system engineering team to deploy the solution at airports.

Project Outcome

  • MVP ready to be deployed at customers
  • Continuous delivery pipeline implemented enabling rapid feature shipping
  • System engineering team trained to deploy the product at airports
  • Delivered in line with stakeholder requirements despite scope changes
