Project Summary

A digital marketplace hired Crafton to develop frontend ReactJS components for a new product, including dashboards and flows. The vendor delivered several codebases based on provided designs, but the client reported that roughly 90% of components had problems and required an in-house developer to fix. Communication from the project manager was described as good, but timelines and deliverables were consistently delayed and optimistic estimates proved inaccurate.

Key Challenges

  • Need for frontend development of ReactJS components for a digital marketplace
  • Delivery of multiple codebases (dashboards, investment flow, signup flow) according to provided designs

Project Deliverables

  • Dashboards
  • Investment flow codebase
  • Signup flow
  • ReactJS frontend components

Project Solution

The vendor quoted a lower price and a short timeline and was contracted to develop several ReactJS codebases. Crafton executed kickoff meetings, reviewed provided prototype wireframes and designs, and delivered frontend implementations for dashboards, the investment flow, and the signup flow. The vendor assigned a small team (according to them: 1 project manager and 2 developers) to complete the frontend work.

Project Outcome

  • 90% of components had problems
  • Client hired an in-house developer to fix issues
  • Deliverables were frequently late and sprints were shifted
  • Communication from the project manager was good but projections were overly optimistic

Quality of Deliverables

“The company was not satisfied with the team's work. Approximately 90% of the work had issues and the company needed to hire an internal developer to fix them. While the team appreciated the communication from the project manager, the projections were too optimistic and deliverables were often late. This review includes the vendor's response.”
