Modular architecture: it enabled us to tackle the complexity, with a focus on easy maintenance through constant refactoring and code clean-ups.

Agile development process: it allowed us to adapt quickly to business needs. An “Open to change” philosophy was enabled by loose module and component couplings, multiple abstraction layers, dependency injection and defined extension points.

Strong Business Analysis team: they worked closely with field SMEs to document, improve and execute the transition from legacy systems to our application.

Strong DevOps team: they worked closely with other application groups and designed solutions for integrating the service delivery management application into the corporate ecosystem.

Clustering and Load Balancing: enabled high availability and scalability, together with the ability to have non-disruptive updates.

Customer support team & strict policies to deal with data protection and legal requirements. The implementation of these policies was periodically audited by our team and customer representatives.

Continuous integration system & multi-step QA (incl. automated regression testing, manual testing, business validation, multiple testing- and staging-environments): allowed us to meet and exceed client’s quality standards.
