Project Summary

Django Stars completed an MVP of a government risk and compliance tool for an IT service provider, taking over after the client had finished half of the planned sprints. The vendor provided a five-person full-stack team, managed remaining tasks and modules, and delivered the MVP ahead of schedule. The client praised the team's professionalism, responsiveness, and project-management capabilities.

Key Challenges

Needed to get a software product to MVP quickly to support IT control and security reviews.
The client's original development members left, creating a resource gap.
Only 10 of 20 planned sprints had been completed before the vendor takeover.
