Project Summary

Intellias supplied a six-person team to augment the frontend capabilities of an energy management application, working alongside a Munich-based team. The engagement (ongoing since 2012) focused on Ext JS frontend work and API integrations; their involvement allowed the client to transfer responsibilities to the Intellias team, increasing capacity and reliability. The teams collaborate using Scrum and Jira, and the vendor has provided stable long-term staffing.

Growing energy management app requiring additional team members and new technologies.
Difficulty finding suitable team members locally in Germany.
Need to adopt an offshoring approach to scale the team and address upcoming mobile challenges.

The engagement is ongoing and supports potential future rewrites for mobile challenges.
