Project Summary

Finoit is developing both the backend and frontend of an iOS and Android mobile application platform using primarily Python and Java. Their project manager has been praised for strong project management and keeping the team on schedule, which led to a contract renewal. The vendor assists internal architects by executing backend and frontend features and supporting ongoing iOS development.

Key Challenges

Needing experienced programmers to assist in developing both backend and frontend for iOS and Android apps.
Inability to execute the designed course builder code without vendor assistance.

Project Deliverables

Android app backend (Python)
Android app frontend (Java)
Moderation algorithm to surface relevant information
Course builder implementation
iOS app development (in progress)

Project Solution

Finoit assisted the client's internal architects by developing the Android app backend in Python and the Android frontend in Java. They implemented features to enable information sharing between users, built a moderation algorithm to ensure content relevance, and executed the course builder code the client was unable to complete. Finoit is also supporting the development of the iOS app and provided staff (mix of full- and part-time) led by a named project manager.

Project Outcome

The internal team is pleased with deliverables and tasks are typically completed before deadlines.
The client renewed the contract largely because of strong project management provided by Finoit's project manager.
