Project Summary

Artelogic provides long-term IT staff augmentation and web development for a German food production and sales company, building PHP/MySQL-based solutions such as an internal knowledge-management app and an EDI order-collection tool. The engagement includes one project manager per project and up to four developers, daily stand-ups, Jira for project management, and strong documentation. Deliverables have driven measurable business value and reliable ongoing revenue for the client.

Key Challenges

Need for IT staff augmentation across multiple projects
Requirement to build an internal knowledge-management application and an EDI order-collection tool

Project Deliverables

Internal knowledge-management application for in-house chefs' recipes
Electronic data interchange (EDI) tool for order collection
Ongoing software development and staff augmentation (project management and developers)

Project Solution

Artelogic supplied software developers who work concurrently on multiple projects, primarily using PHP, MySQL, and the Yii 2 framework. They developed an internal knowledge-management application for chefs' recipes and an EDI tool that collects client orders, and provided project management (one PM per project) and developer resources as staff augmentation.

Project Outcome

The EDI tool generates significant daily revenue and improved order-collection processes.
Quality deliverables created clear value for cost; the vendor absorbed some rework without charging.
Regular communication via summaries and daily stand-ups, with Jira for project management, improved collaboration and responsiveness.
