Project Summary

Symfa (formerly AIS Novations) served as the long-term development partner for RBC Life Sciences, building enrollment systems, e-commerce sites, and an ERP to manage company processes. They developed integrations between order, shipping, accounting, and commission systems and supported the client's entire IT infrastructure. The client praised their availability across time zones, reliability, and communication, while suggesting they establish an internal QA team.

Key Challenges

  • Need for a knowledgeable, reliable IT team to support ongoing e-commerce projects
  • Improve IT system efficiency and accuracy
  • Build and enhance an enrollment system and e-commerce sites that integrate with commission engines

Project Deliverables

  • E-commerce websites
  • Enrollment system (commission engine integration)
  • ERP system connecting orders, shipping, accounting, commission, and intranet
  • Integrations between the web database, commission database, and accounting database

Project Solution

The vendor rebuilt and maintained the client's e-commerce websites and enrollment system to work with changing commission providers, migrating implementations across technologies (traditional ASP to .NET, C# web forms to MVC) and different CMS approaches. They also developed an ERP system that ties online orders to shipping, accounting, commission systems, and the company intranet, and implemented integrations to flow data between the web, commission, and accounting databases. The engagement was staffed by a small team (typically one CTO and two developers) with occasional UI/UX and DBA support.

Project Outcome

  • Improved ability to launch marketing projects and overall IT system improvements
  • 24/7 availability enabling rapid emergency response
  • Strong communication and reliable long-term support

Quality of Deliverables

“Their support for the entire IT infrastructure has been invaluable over the years. Their availability regardless of the time difference, reliability, and communication put them in the spotlight. Their competitive prices are hard to beat, though they could invest in creating their own QA department.”
