Project Summary
Forbytes supplemented Offerta's in-house development team on a .NET-based services marketplace, providing Azure hosting and CAL worker-report setup. They supplied three full-time developers and project management support, delivered backend code and structured CSS, and used Slack and Jira for tracking. The client praised Forbytes' culture, high-quality developers, and effective project leadership. The engagement began in December 2016 and is ongoing.
Key Challenges
- Rapid product development expansion
- Need to build a new type of marketplace for services
- Need for skilled developers to supplement the in-house team
Project Deliverables
- Marketplace .NET platform enhancements
- Azure hosting setup
- CAL worker reports implementation
- Backend code modules
- Structured CSS
Project Solution
Forbytes supplemented the client's in-house team by providing experienced .NET developers and project management support. They helped set up Azure service hosting and implemented the client's CAL (client access license) worker reporting. The team delivered backend code and restructured CSS for improved maintainability. For project coordination they assigned a project manager and used Slack and Jira for tracking; the vendor's principal provided periodic oversight.
Project Outcome
- Improved code quality compared to the client's prior code
- Structured CSS that made subsequent maintenance easier
- Consistent backend structure across the website
- Improved communication and project management (monthly principal calls, assigned project manager, daily standups)
