CASE STUDY POINT OF SALE
Overview of Case Study
Our Challenge
To help a client-architect, design, procure and implement the solution to make it available for the development team to deploy in 4 months..
Our Approach
We partnered with the company to analyze their project, technical solution, and implementation schedule so we could be sure we could deliver in the time allotted.
People
The staff lacked the skills to architect and implement a new Point of Sale system
We analyzed the skillset of their existing staff and recommended that they invest in both training as well as some additional staff to support the new technologies being deployed
Process
We met with the development team and analyzed the requirements
We architected the solution and facilitated procurement
We implemented and project managed the solution end to end to ensure a timely execution and budget adherence
Technology
We architected the solution based on the requirements for their Development, Staging and Production environments
We implemented the full development environment and the minimum for staging and production to allow for a more phased approach and costing for the client
