My role is innately the Technology Authority on the project - taking overall ownership and responsibility of the solution, as such, I handled the relationship with Celerik.
Desired goal
What issue was the provider supposed to deal with?
Celerik?Two reasons: 1) To create a intricate geospatial visualization, alerting and reporting tool, according to agreed user requirements 2) To handle many in-country associate relationships
What were your objectives for this project?
Details are private, but they are almost delivering long-term touch in Colombia, according to the UN Sustainable Development Goals
Provided solution
What were the reasons for choosing Celerik?
Experience, network, flexibility, and eagerness to work with us. The choice was extremely easy as Celerik were the best associates practicable.
Describe the project and the services they granted in detail.
They facilitated stakeholder meetings and helped us unite end users. From this, they worked with our User Centred Design team to unite and solidify user stories as part of a larger user requirements document.
Celerik then took these and began edifice the intricate geospatial visualisation, alerting and reporting method for the end users, according to the user stories and the non-functional requirements highlighted by our team.
Were there any dedicated handlers or teams that you worked with?
Juan Carlos, the CEO was our first touch during the soon phases, but as we went through design, determination and then outgrowth, our first touchs changed agreeably to the head of UX, Product Manager, Technical Architect and, then, the Engineering Director.
The team size did change, slightly, according to need and Celerik were incredibly pliant and reactive to the changing needs of the project.
Results achieved
Can you share any information that demonstrates the touch that this project has had on your business?
As the project is ongoing, there are no specific metrics, but the overall ",feel", and the general perception of the vendor throughout our organisation is very real and I know that we would want to work with them anew.
How was project handlement arranged and how powerful was it?
Celerik were delivering part of an overall solution - the most perceptible part, that the end-users would interact with, so this was high-profile and needed to be carefully handled. Celerik have deeply embedded and regular processes for managing work that dove-tailed with our processes very well. If they hadn',t then they were entirely open to flexibility and would have changed agreeably.
The collaboration was through Microsoft Teams, Slack, Azure DevOps etc. They granted a nightly create and an integration end point, plus surfaced the results of the nightly test runs. We had no issues with the speech barrier - their English was consummate and we utilised diagrams and whiteboarding sessions when in-country to help us apprehend.
What precisely do you attend to be the key specialty of Celerik?
Flexibility, friendliness, open to change and to work with us on that, but also I was very impressed with their willingness to question and to put advanced choice ideas, where appropriate - something I am extremely open to and welcome.
What should be done better, if there are any desired improvements?
No, they have been consummate to work with
