Project Summary

ZAGA has provided ongoing staff augmentation to a pet adoption startup since January 2020, contributing ten or more development resources to handle front- and backend custom web development as well as product work and project management. The client reports strong candidate matches, effective onboarding, good communication, and consistently met deadlines. The team has integrated with the internal group and supports both delivery and product needs.

Key Challenges

  • Need to expand the development team to support product growth.
  • Difficulty finding developers that fit the company’s budgetary constraints.

Project Deliverables

  • Development resources (10–12) embedded with the client team
  • Front-end development (HTML, React Native/React Mobile)
  • Backend development (Laravel PHP)
  • Product work and project management support

Project Solution

ZAGA supplied over ten development resources to augment the client's team, handling front-end and back-end custom web development, product work, and project management. Frontend work included HTML and React Native/React Mobile environments, while backend development used Laravel PHP. The vendor initially ran its own projects then fully integrated its resources with the client's internal team about four months into the engagement. The relationship began in January 2020 and is ongoing.

Project Outcome

  • Consistently found suitable candidates within the first two to three applicants.
  • Strong onboarding process and nearly perfect on-time delivery.
  • Vendor actively coaches or replaces underperforming team members to maintain quality.
