Project Summary

GoodCore Software developed a prototype and then a secure, responsive web platform to collect quarterly submissions from biotechnology companies for a government-funded investment body. The vendor conducted a detailed requirements study, built the backend and frontend with .NET and MySQL, and followed an agile, phased approach with regular testing. The resulting system is reliable, used daily, provides KPIs for stakeholder reporting, and led to an ongoing maintenance relationship with GoodCore.

Key Challenges

Replace a legacy OSS submission system that was at the end of its lifecycle.
Support quarterly reporting requirements for biotech companies, including product and sales data.
Ensure a high level of security for sensitive personal and company information and comply with partner NDAs.
Make the system simple and accessible for 200–250 partner companies across different browsers and mobile devices.
