Project Summary

Comarch augmented a telematics service provider's development team to build a data ingestion process for third-party telematics and vehicle OEM data, enhance product features, and refactor application logic to improve performance. Work was delivered using C#, .NET Core and Python across Azure and AWS in two-week sprints, with two Comarch developers embedded into the client's team. These efforts reduced hosting costs (~£12k/month), cut about 5 FTE from operations (~£100k/year), and materially improved the client's product proposition.

Key Challenges

  • Integrate third-party hardware and software (communication protocols) into existing data streams
  • Develop a robust data ingestion pipeline for telematics and vehicle OEM data
  • Optimise and refactor existing solutions to improve performance and enable feature enhancements
  • Deliver customer-value generating feature enhancements from captured data

Project Deliverables

  • Data ingestion process for third-party telematics devices and vehicle OEM data
  • Feature enhancements for the existing telematics product
  • Refactored application logic to improve performance
  • Build and deployment pipelines for Azure and AWS environments
  • Two vendor developers integrated into the client's development team

Project Solution

Comarch was recommended and provided two embedded developers who worked in two-week sprints to build a data ingestion process for third-party telematics devices and vehicle OEM data. The team implemented feature enhancements and refactored application logic to improve performance. Development was performed using C#, .NET Core and Python, with ASP.NET, JavaScript, HTML and CSS for front-end elements, and deployments delivered via build pipelines to Azure and AWS.

Project Outcome

  • Removed approximately £12,000 per month in hosting costs
  • Reduced operational headcount by about 5 FTE (~£100,000 per year)
  • Greatly enhanced the client's telematics product and proposition
  • Improved development speed and documentation; integrated well via Teams and daily standups
