Client

Confidential

Memphis, United States of America

Project Summary

The client (an automotive software and digital marketing provider for U.S. dealers) began the engagement with a single .NET resource and expanded to a team of three developers, a business analyst, and a tester. Diceus built business intelligence tools, leaderboards, and competition systems as well as websites and other software, and has become an extended development team. The client is satisfied with the quality of work and has increased Diceus's responsibilities, though some timeline estimates have been optimistic.

Key Challenges

Need for an affordable, reliable software provider and development team
Requirement for developers familiar with the client's .NET codebase
Need to build business intelligence, leaderboards, and a competition system to drive dealer adoption

Project Deliverables

Business intelligence tools with leaderboards and stats
Competition system to incentivize dealers' salespeople
Website and other software development
Dedicated assigned developer (extended team member)

Project Solution

Diceus was engaged to build business intelligence tools, including leaderboards, stats and a competition system to incentivize dealers' salespeople, and to support website and other software development. They provided developers familiar with the client's .NET codebase (and also coded in PHP and other languages), became an extended on-demand development team, and assigned a dedicated developer to the client while ramping resources over time. The team used Agile-based processes with JIRA and Microsoft Project artifacts and daily Skype communication.

Project Outcome

Multiple successful deployments
Continued ramp-up of resources as trust and confidence increased
Strong working relationship and high client satisfaction
On pace to do approximately $300,000 in work with the vendor in the referenced year
