Project Summary

ManekTech provides web development support to a UK-based digital agency to handle overflow work, completing Shopify and WordPress projects and currently finalizing two additional WordPress builds. One in-progress WordPress project includes a complex database-driven interface for business profiles and product listings. The vendor provides a single point of contact (owner/project manager), communicates via Jira/Wrike and Skype, and generally delivers timely work though QA turnaround has room for improvement.

Key Challenges

  • In-house development team at capacity requiring outsourced support
  • Need for a complex WordPress database interface to support business profiles and product listings

Project Deliverables

  • Shopify store build
  • WordPress website builds
  • Database-backed business-profile and product-listing interface

Project Solution

ManekTech completed two external projects (a Shopify store and a WordPress site) and is finalizing two additional WordPress builds. One WordPress project is a complex database-backed system that allows users to create business profiles, add and amend product listings, and review other profiles. The client primarily interacted with the vendor's owner and an assigned project manager; the vendor coordinated developers separately. The vendor used Jira originally and later switched to Wrike for PM and communicated via Skype.

Project Outcome

  • Generally satisfactory deliverables with the client intending to re-engage
  • Strong project management with regular updates and timely deliveries
  • QA/testing turnaround speed identified as an area for improvement
