Project Solution

Using the client’s starting points, Evizi developed the front- and back-end of an online enrollment platform using Ruby on Rails and built accompanying websites for digital marketing. They customized an open-source base to encode the client's specific workflows. The engagement included a team of 10–12 people (including a project manager and front- and back-end developers) and coordination with Evizi’s executive team. The work was executed in two-week sprints over the engagement period (June 2011–December 2012).

Project Outcome

Development work met sprint completion metrics and was well-received internally
The team’s flexibility and responsiveness supported rapid growth
The engagement enabled the company to triple enrollments in a short period
