The challenge

Business

To assume complete control and ownership of the project, moving from partial involvement to comprehensive management and strategic alignment of all operations.

To integrate and to improve integration process with our partners was crucial for expanding our service capabilities

To take charge of developing and implementing critical, time-sensitive features and functionalities, areas the existing team could not focus on due to limited resources.

Technical

We're tackling a technical challenge to make our system more efficient and scalable. Our approach includes expanding automation testing to speed up deliveries, refactoring the architecture for easier integration with new partners, and redesigning the system into a service-oriented architecture. This will allow us to isolate and expedite critical feature updates without impacting the entire system, ensuring quicker, more reliable delivery of services.
