Project Summary

Honeycomb Software provided staff augmentation to develop and QA a custom web-based project management tool for a small business consulting firm serving financial advisors, using .NET, HTML, JavaScript, CSS, and AngularJS within an Agile/Scrum process. The vendor integrated with the client's team (delivering three engineers and a full-time QA), performed regression testing, improved system architecture and maintainability, and maintained strong communication despite time zone differences.

Project Solution

Honeycomb supplied staff augmentation to extend and quality-assure an existing web-based project management application.

The team integrated into the client's Agile/Scrum process, worked on new feature development, performed full regression testing, and contributed architectural improvements to increase performance, stability, and maintainability.
