Project Summary

CodeIT developed a web ordering system for a virtual mobile operator to distribute and automate activation of SIM cards. Their work integrated multiple APIs and used a PHP/MySQL stack on a Linux environment. The engagement enabled the client to launch paid subscriptions on schedule and meaningfully increase SIM sales; the vendor is noted for structured project management and constructive technical guidance.

Key Challenges

  • Need for a system to control distribution of SIM cards and other API-connected services
  • Requirement to automate activation workflows for bulk orders
  • Desire for a cost-effective outsourcing partner outside Sweden to reduce development costs

Project Deliverables

  • Web ordering system
  • API integrations with multiple backend systems
  • SIM card distribution and activation automation
  • PHP/MySQL-based Linux deployment

Project Solution

CodeIT designed and implemented a web-based ordering system that integrated with multiple existing APIs to automate SIM card distribution and activation on the cellular network. They recommended and used a Linux-based, open-source stack (primarily PHP and MySQL), built integration points to external systems, and implemented automation workflows to handle bulk orders and activations. The vendor staffed a small cross-functional team (PM, technical lead, business analyst, testers) and maintained daily communication during development.

Project Outcome

  • Increased SIM card sales and enabled the company's transition from zero sales to significant subscriptions
  • Launched the first subscription on schedule in April 2013, enabling the virtual operator to start services
