Project Summary
A clinical research startup contracted KiwiTech to build a SaaS platform on AWS for clinical trials, producing a responsive web and mobile application with role-based access. KiwiTech managed requirements, UX/UI, AWS architecture, full-stack development, testing and documentation, released features each two-week sprint, and supported regulatory compliance (including HIPAA). The engagement is ongoing and the client reports consistent quality, transparent project management and helpful investor introductions.
Key Challenges
- Build a SaaS platform on AWS in a bring-your-own-device (BYOD) model.
- Provide a web-accessible application with multiple users and role-based access where data and interface vary by role.
- Support both mobile and desktop devices with a responsive design.
- Meet significant regulatory and security requirements for healthcare and life-science customers.
Project Deliverables
- Responsive web and mobile application (SaaS)
- AWS architecture and deployment
- Requirements design and specifications
- Traceability matrix
- Release notes and user guides
- Deployment and testing artifacts
- Data integration and analysis components
Project Solution
KiwiTech conducted requirements elicitation and produced functional, technical and security specifications, then designed UX/UI, database schema and AWS architecture. They performed full-stack development, data integration and analysis, created deliverables such as requirements design, traceability matrix, release notes and user guides, and handled deployment and testing of the responsive SaaS product. The vendor released new components at the end of two-week sprints and provided startup ecosystem support including investor introductions.
Project Outcome
- The vendor delivered a quality product appropriate for healthcare and life-science customers and continues to support development (ongoing engagement).
- KiwiTech invested 50% of the company's development cost while the intellectual property remained with the client.
- The engagement met quality management and regulatory standards, including HIPAA, and helped address third-party audits.
- Regular two-week releases, daily status calls and transparent reporting improved project management and collaboration.
