Introduction:

As a provider of payroll accounting, a medium-sized company was planning to update its digital applications due to constantly changing requirements and to expand them with additional functions.

challenge of the company:

As our client only employs one lead developer, support from IT experts with excellent Symfony knowledge was required for cost and time reasons.

Goals:

• Professional implementation of all IT specifications for smooth implementation of the applications
• Project implementation within the specified cost and time frame

Solutions:

• Short-term staffing with initially one Symfony developer.
• Addition of another Symfony developer to the IT team to ensure parallel work on the applications.
• Close cooperation between all IT developers due to application dependencies.
• Our IT coordinator ensured that everyone involved worked together smoothly.

Implementation:

• Use of our customer’s project management board.
• Consulting, introduction and application of agile methods, such as two-week sprints and retrospectives.
• Deployment of the responsible IT coordinator as project manager with extended responsibilities and SPOC for all parties involved.
• Regularly obtaining customer feedback on project progress.
• On-site visit to the customer to strengthen confidence and discuss the current status and the next steps.

Conclusion:

The Symfony developers we provided were smoothly integrated into the customer project with the support of our IT coordinator.

The introduction of agile methods and regular exchange as well as the use of our project manager proved to be the optimal approach in every case, which was also confirmed several times by the customer.

The expertise of our IT specialists was impressive, also in terms of thinking along and contributing their own suggestions. Everyone involved quickly familiarized themselves with the processes and workflows and developed a good understanding of the project. The project manager’s working methods and consistent follow-up were particularly praised.

Thanks to this approach, Insivio was not only able to make a significant contribution to the progress of the project, but was also able to strengthen customer confidence and prove itself as a competent partner for software development and project management.
