Project Summary

Monterail augmented an internal development team to build a resource management web application for businesses, focusing on frontend work and some back-office components. The solution was built with Ruby on Rails and AngularJS. Communication and collaboration were strong (daily virtual standups, GitHub, web-conferencing), and Monterail was accommodating on billing and staffing, though the client wished for more progress reports.

Key Challenges

  • Small internal team needed additional technical skills
  • High labor costs in Switzerland made local hiring difficult
  • Need for a partner able to develop the solution to high quality standards

Project Deliverables

  • Frontend application
  • Back-office components
  • Web application (Ruby on Rails and AngularJS)

Project Solution

Monterail augmented the client's internal team to handle frontend development and select back-office components of a resource management tool. The vendor delivered a web application built with Ruby on Rails and AngularJS, assigned one team leader, two to three technical staff, and provided a part-time project manager. The client's CTO managed the engagement and collaboration occurred via GitHub and web-conferencing.

Project Outcome

  • Project ended after five months due to a change of strategy following the company's acquisition
  • Efficient remote collaboration via web-conferencing, GitHub, and daily virtual standups
  • Deliverables met quality standards and Monterail was accommodating on billing (did not emphasize charging for extra hours and added junior staff without charge)
