Challenges faced by the Client

Actus encountered several challenges while collaborating with the Ukraine team.

cost

High Cost

The client's major issue was spending large sums of money. The high per-resource billing caused concern about budget management for the project. Due to this, the client could not utilize the money in other areas.

manager

No Dedicated Project Manager

The team had no dedicated project manager who could manage the process flow or use the best PMO/management practices. The client admitted that all the key stakeholders were acting as managers, creating chaos in the whole process.

agreement

Zero Documentation

Another major challenge faced by the client was the lack of proper documentation. It led to chaos as it was difficult to track the work that had been done and the work that had already been completed.

group

Minimal Team with Less Bandwidth

Actus had a team of just 3-4 developers, but there was so much work in the pipeline that it could not be assigned. Due to budget constraints, they couldn't hire more people.

How YTII Helped Actus Overcome Its Challenges

As a leading offshore software development company, we identified the client’s core problems and built a dedicated development team to ensure smooth functioning.

We expanded the Actus team from 3 Developers to 7 at a lower cost.

1

Implementing a Full-Scale Upgrade to the Existing Jira Setup

Our experts implemented a comprehensive update for the current Jira system for Actus. It helped improve the performance and functionality of the project, leading to better project management capabilities at the ground level.

2-1

Prioritized Task Division for Efficiency

We divided the project tasks into various priorities and categorized them accordingly. It helped our team to understand the tasks that were to be done first, making the entire process easy and manageable.

3-1

Transitioned QA from Local Machines to Signity’s Local Server

As the client performed its QA process on local machines while testing, it was prone to errors as it required frequent switching. Our team shifted QA to Signity's local server for a smooth process.

4-1

Implemented Comprehensive Documentation Practices

From zero documentation, we developed comprehensive process and module documentation during the knowledge transfer from the client. Everything from then on was synced through the new process flow made with the best project management practices.

5-1

Allocated a Dedicated Developer for Focused Support

At YTII, we ensured that there was a dedicated team member for each task. We allocated resources as per the client's specific requirements; whether it was for the front end or back end, we had the perfect resource for it.

Architecture for New Models

One of the best ways we helped Actus was by developing architecture for their new models. Within one month, we optimized the existing architecture and added new, feature-rich capabilities with a cutting-edge tech stack.

The YTII Impact

team

Dedicated Team at a Lower Cost

From a team of 3-4 members to a dedicated team of 7 professionals, we assisted Actus in expanding its workforce. The best part? With our IT outsourcing services, the client built this team at a lower cost than their previous expenditures. It not only broadened growth opportunities but also saved significant costs, allowing them to accomplish more with the same budget.

application

Improved UI Experience

Currently, when the project came to us, its UI was the major concern for the client. After understanding the business needs and requirements for building an engaging user interface, we assigned a dedicated professional. Within days, we were able to achieve the specific UI needs, resulting in better engagement and performance.

qa

Better QA Environment

The Actus QA team faced problems during the analysis process as the server was on local machines. Once this project came to YTII, we transferred it to our server, enabling a flawless QA environment where the QA could log in directly to the server to test individual dev branches easily. This approach really changed the QA approach when compared to the previous one.

security-system

Highly Secured Platform

As Actus works with government organizations, data security is another major concern. Our dedicated team ensured that the platform met all the regulatory requirements in order to protect against any fraud. The Actus team has given us many guidelines to follow to ensure no third party gains access to data.
