Project Summary

Interwave Concepts, a travel and tourism internet solutions provider, hired My Virtual Teams to convert and update a Joomla extension from a SQL data dump integration to use the Signature API. My Virtual Teams updated the import routine, core extension and additional modules and developed landing page layouts. Communication and responsive project management (including a project site and Skype) were highlighted as key strengths, and the integration helped Interwave win several new accounts in Q2 and Q3 2020.

Key Challenges

Transition from a SQL data dump to the Signature API requiring conversion of the existing extension
Need for a reliable solution and ongoing maintenance of the Joomla extension after personnel changes at Interwave

Project Deliverables

Updated import routine
Updated core extension and additional modules
Converted Joomla component extension to integrate Signature API

Project Solution

My Virtual Teams updated Interwave’s Joomla Component extension and import routine to support the Signature API migration. They reviewed the new API specifications, provided cost and time estimates, updated the core extension and additional modules to add functionality for Interwave's customers, and developed various landing page layouts. The vendor team had prior experience with the SQL data dump implementation and delivered the updates while coordinating via a third-party project management site and Skype.

Project Outcome

Interwave was the first web developer to fully integrate the Signature API and picked up several new accounts in Q2 and Q3 2020
Became the go-to solution for Signature members
All milestones were met and communication (project site, nightly updates, Skype) supported timely delivery

Quality of Deliverables

“Thanks to the efforts of the team, the company became a valuable resource for the travel industry despite no one travelling during the pandemic. Communication was the most important part of the process as far as the company's internal management was concerned.”
