Project Summary

Sprinterra provided software development support to a financial services consulting firm by augmenting an in-house team to build multiple web-based business applications. The engagement was primarily a Microsoft/.NET environment; Sprinterra used C# and .NET to implement project management and workflow applications. Their developers and trained project managers were generally effective and communicative, though one PM backfill underperformed for a time before being replaced.

Key Challenges

Need for extra development support to help build multiple business applications
Meeting project schedules and staying within budget while augmenting an in-house team
Integrating vendor staff with existing in-house development processes

Project Deliverables

Web-based business applications
Project management business workflow applications
Functionality enhancements and feature builds using C# and .NET

Project Solution

Sprinterra worked alongside the client's in-house engineers to build out multiple web-based business and project-management workflow applications in a Microsoft/.NET environment. They implemented functionality using C# and .NET, initially providing a dedicated project manager and later augmenting the client's teams with individual developers and subsequent project managers. They administered project boards in Jira and communicated via Skype, instant messaging, phone conferences, and email.

Project Outcome

Functionality built to meet market demand (success measured qualitatively rather than metrics)
Strong initial project management that established effective processes; a later PM backfill underperformed but was replaced
High-quality, motivated developers who were easy to work with and committed to client goals
Use of Jira for project management and administration of project boards; regular communication via Skype/IM/phone/email

Quality of Deliverables

“Sprinterra’s developers were easy and pleasant to work with. They brought valuable recommendations and practices, and were consistently willing to learn and engage in new work. Their trained project managers were effective, but when the position was backfilled, there were less successful results.”
