Quality of Deliverables

“The two developers were highly skilled, and yielded quality deliverables for the price of one domestic programmer. When design specs were unclear, the team made thoughtful educated guesses. Jira tickets were completed within 24 hours, and daily Slack meetings facilitated clear communication.”
