Project Summary

Ideamotive redeveloped and currently maintains a Ruby on Rails website and backend management system for a Swiss university's events. They delivered an MVP, deployed the platform to the web, and continue to implement new features and updates. The engagement has supported audience growth (doubling within the last year) and the team works in daily standups with regular backlog planning.

Key Challenges

  • Needed developers to update the website and implement new requirements and features
  • Previous versions were developed in-house requiring a transition to an external vendor
  • Tight deadlines and rapidly changing scope required fast scaling and led to some missed upfront discussions causing rework

Project Deliverables

  • Redeveloped the university event website (third version)
  • Backend management system
  • MVP deployment to the web
  • Ongoing new feature development and platform updates

Project Solution

Ideamotive redeveloped the university's entire event platform using Ruby on Rails, building and deploying an MVP to the web and creating a backend management system. They implemented requested database structure and feature code from provided spec sheets, delivered the third version of the website, and continue to develop and broaden platform features. The client communicates directly with a project manager and web developers; the vendor scales the team size as needed to meet deadlines.

Project Outcome

  • Doubled the size of the audience within the last year
  • Improved operational process with daily standups and weekly backlog reviews
  • Delivered an MVP and ongoing feature rollouts that support the client's event growth
