Project Summary

S-PRO provided a team and technical leadership to a small software company building a fintech/SaaS platform with blockchain integration. They designed the roadmap for a PoC and MVP, assembled an out-staffed team (including architects, product managers, and developers), and supported selecting a blockchain subcontractor. The vendor's flexibility helped the client transition from an outsourced to an out-staffed model, and S-PRO maintained business continuity through the conflict in Ukraine while using tools like Jira and Confluence for project management.
