About

The Client is a large banking services provider in Central Asia with a countrywide network of 100+ branches. For more than 20 years, the company has been providing a full range of banking services to individuals and businesses.

Challenge

The Client stepped into the retail sector by offering a multi-vendor marketplace – an online environment where consumers could view a variety of products from about 14 major categories, compare prices from different sellers and buy. Initially, the marketplace was implemented with the company s in-house resources, which, at some point, was no longer sufficient due to the lack of required IT competencies.

The Client needed to seek external assistance and augment their team with extra skills in order to keep the project moving forward. As far as the project was supposed to evolve in an agile manner, the company was looking for a partner with a vast talent pool. In particular, they required skills in front- and back-end development, microservices-based development, and mobile development.

Solution

A provider of IT services and staff augmentation, VolgoTechnologies offered the Client a viable staffing solution to seamlessly fill the resource gap. Having joined the project in March 2020, VolgoTechnologies team has so far (August 2020) been engaged in the following jobs.

Angular web development and native mobile development on iOS and Android to speed up the front-end development efficiency. VolgoTechnologies developers worked on making the user interface evolve dynamically, elevating user experience with each iteration.

Results

The cooperation between the Client and VolgoTechnologies have been productive so far and is going on to date (August 2020). While the company s IT needs vary as the project evolves, team augmentation provided by VolgoTechnologies allows to keep a fast development pace and save costs on hiring in-house developers. Augmenting their team with required IT talents, the Client has managed to establish a truly agile environment and evolves the marketplace application rapidly.
