Project Solution

Coherent Solutions acted as a recruiting and delivery partner: providing a project manager to interview and onboard engineers, then supplying frontend and backend developers, QA, BAs, and local lead developers for onboarding. They scaled resources from an initial small team to about 50 vendor-provided engineers across roughly 11 teams, built a multi-project platform (MPP), developed website frontends and backend APIs, implemented Salesforce integrations, migrated APIs from Azure to AWS, and created a retail portal for customers.
