Project Summary

Inventorsoft provided custom software development support to a SaaS company building a web-based data catalog, using Java, JavaScript and Groovy with AWS hosting. They implemented features, functional tests, and CI pipeline integration; the engagement helped the client double their end client base and improved maintenance and responsiveness, though project management and deadline consistency varied across team members.

Key Challenges

  • Small internal team required external development support
  • Need to meet end clients' requirements for specialized software and ensure all teammates understand complex project requirements

Project Deliverables

  • Custom features for the data catalog
  • Functional tests
  • Code pipeline integration and deployment
  • Development documentation
  • Ongoing bug fixes and maintenance

Project Solution

Inventorsoft assisted the client with end-client feature requests: discussing design requirements, creating Jira tasks, breaking them into work units, assigning developers, and moving successful builds through a test pipeline into the main codebase. The vendor implemented functional tests, followed the client's documented development process, and used Java, JavaScript, Groovy and AWS hosting to build features for the data catalog (data analysis, classification, storage, download, search and metadata display). The team worked with three assigned teammates including a deployment engineer.

Project Outcome

  • Client base doubled
  • Maintained good relationships with end clients
  • Quick bug fixes and responsive communication via Slack, Skype and Google Meet
  • Some developers did not consistently meet deadlines, indicating project management variability

Quality of Deliverables

Inventorsoft has helped the client maintain and double their client base. Inventorsoft addresses and fixes bugs quickly. They answer the client’s concerns and are responsive through Slack. However, Inventorsoft’s project management skills can improve since not all of their team meets deadlines.
