Project Summary

An industrial software provider engaged Enosis Solutions to rewrite a Delphi-based Windows application into C#, integrating Enosis developers into the client's agile teams. Enosis supplied up to four full-time developers and a manager, used the client's Atlassian toolchain, and helped establish continuous integration and ongoing maintenance. The engagement began around 2015 and is ongoing, with the vendor providing strong technical leadership and communication.

Key Challenges

Difficulty finding and recruiting talent in their market
Prior recruitment engagement failed within six months
Need to migrate a Delphi-based Windows application to C# for maintainability and future use

Project Deliverables

Rewritten C# Windows application
Continuous integration pipeline and automated builds
Source control integration via Bitbucket
Dedicated development resources (up to four FTEs) and a team manager

Project Solution

Enosis rewrote the client's Delphi-based Windows application into C#, gradually staffing the client's agile teams by providing one initial resource, then 1–2 additional developers up to four full-time equivalents, plus a middle manager. They integrated into the client's toolchain (Jira, Confluence, Bitbucket), helped maintain and innovate within the existing Delphi applications during the transition, and supported team processes and estimations.

Project Outcome

Built a continuous integration system enabling automated builds on demand
Improved technical leadership and communication, approaching executive-level oversight
Reduced impact of resource turnover through structured team management and overlapping training
