Project Summary
Leobit provides ongoing PHP and C# development support, including maintenance and bug fixes, for a media file–sharing enterprise product. The engagement started in August 2015 and evolved from a spec-driven build into an embedded, collaborative relationship. After initial staffing issues, Leobit connected the client with a reliable developer who now works as an extension of the in-house team.
Key Challenges
- The client's development team lacked resources to build PHP-based applications
- Early staffing mismatches and language/communication barriers hindered initial progress
- The client experienced several unsuccessful prior engagements before finding a suitable vendor match
Project Deliverables
- Software built to specifications
- Ongoing maintenance and bug fixes
- Developer resource assigned to the account
- Interfacing with the client's customers
Project Solution
Leobit acted as an extension of the client's development team, initially building the file-sharing software to specification and later collaborating on ongoing maintenance. Their work focuses on resolving bugs and updating code in C# and PHP, and they interface directly with the client's customers. The vendor has one developer permanently assigned to the account and has supported the client since August 2015.
Project Outcome
- Leobit connected the client with a talented developer after earlier unsuccessful projects
- The vendor has become an integrated extension of the client's team, improving day-to-day delivery
- Daily coordination via Skype and Assembla tickets established a reliable workflow
- The current developer demonstrates strong work ethic and adaptability
