Project Summary

STX Next provided web and mobile development for a K–12 communication platform, delivering additional software features including mobile apps, performance improvements, social-media posting, and testing. The engagement began in June 2018 and is ongoing. The client praised STX Next’s project management, formalized processes, and effective communication despite the geographic/time difference.

Key Challenges

  • Expand development capacity at a lower cost than U.S.-based resources
  • Avoid hiring in-house due to fluctuating resource needs

Project Deliverables

  • Web application feature enhancements
  • Performance optimizations
  • Social media posting integration
  • Software testing

Project Solution

STX Next helped define and develop additional software features for the client’s K–12 communication platform and developed iOS and Android mobile applications as an alternative to the web app. They implemented performance enhancements and a social-media posting feature to push updates via voice, SMS, email, web, and social platforms. The vendor also provided software testing and staffed the engagement with a salesperson, project owner, project manager, developers, a UI/UX person, and mobile-app programmer, with additional devops and developer resources planned.

Project Outcome

  • The vendor delivered performance improvements and identified additional opportunities beyond the initial requests
  • The client’s team gained confidence in STX Next’s work process and collaboration
  • STX Next helped formalize the client’s software development processes
