Project Summary

Spiral Scout provides developers for maintenance and ongoing improvements of an educational technology platform for an educational publishing company focused on teaching children to read. They have collaborated with the client's internal software team on multiple large- and small-scale projects since 2012, delivering full-stack and front-end development and producing specification documents. The client praises their reliability, strong communication, fast turnarounds and technical competency; the products are used by students in classrooms across the US.

Key Challenges

  • Tight timelines to deliver software products
  • Need for additional development resources to release products to market

Project Deliverables

  • Custom web applications
  • Specification documents
  • Maintenance and ongoing improvements
  • Front-end and full-stack development resources

Project Solution

Spiral Scout collaborated closely with the client's internal software team and product owners, working both onsite and primarily remotely. They provided development resources (initially a full-stack and two front-end developers, later supplemented by junior staff), produced specification documents, and performed daily maintenance and iterative improvements. They accommodated the client's existing stack (Laravel), learned the business domain, and supported multiple large-scale and smaller projects over the engagement.

Project Outcome

  • Their products are used by students in classrooms across the US.
  • Phenomenal communication and rapid turnaround (from a couple of weeks to six months depending on scale).
  • Long-term engagement with the vendor since 2012, indicating sustained satisfaction.
