Communication

Open and efficient two-way communication is crucial to the success of a digital transformation project. Following consultation with the client, we agreed upon a clear and unambiguous communication framework with scheduled regular face-to-face and online meetings and regular reports by email.

Our communication ecosystem also incorporated a structured documents environment and client access to Computools' internal task managing platform. This made both the general project roadmap as well as specific processes transparent and clear for all parties.

Business Process Mapping

CONSULTING

We held a strategic session with the client, where we determined the main goals of the project, identified the multi-level expectations of the client. For fruitful cooperation, a communication system was built and a list of roles was compiled. An analysis of ready-made and existing solutions was carried out, risks were identified. Possible obstacles and solutions were also identified.

DESIGN

The design phase consists of two parallel processes. At this stage, the project specification is developed, the basic processes and the algorithm for the implementation of tasks are determined. An interactive prototype of the future platform is also being created. This is a clickable prototype that allows to study in detail the functions and get feedback. During the discussion, the need for adjustments, additions or removal of unnecessary functions is revealed.

ENGINEERING

Development begins with the formation of a team of professionals with the necessary skills. After the distribution of roles and responsibilities between the performers, the team starts working on tasks according to the chosen methodology. All development and tests are carried out according to the schedule. The design is developed in parallel with the main code and is being introduced gradually.

Interactive Prototype

An interactive prototype is created in order to better understand the goals and needs of the client. Having the opportunity to study the functionality and visualization of the project, the client can add or remove functions, discuss important details. Also at this stage, the foundations of user experience, which are further will be refined and improved, are designed.
