This is not just a beautiful case about how well done everyone is and how wonderful and wonderful everything went - let’s call this story “Something went wrong”... So, let's begin. initial situation We received a task - to develop a tourist service. The client already had a website - it was simple, and of course they needed to create a cool product with a new design and expanded functionality. Goals: Create the opportunity to purchase Gift Certificates. Create the ability to reserve a place for the Event. Create an opportunity to rent camping equipment. Create an opportunity to apply for a corporate event. And everything seems to be fine, there is no overly complex task - there is enough experience, the technology is in the stack, a manager has been found and a team has been selected, what could go wrong? Work process And everything went wrong at the evaluation stage, unfortunately. The salesperson and manager did not carefully read the information and, perhaps due to the current workload, did not delve into the client’s requirements and wishes.
The assessment was made quickly and, based on one catalogue, we proc B2B Email List eeded to sign the contract and start work. What actually happened: - a catalog of gift certificates with different options and a set of accompanying services for each of them, certain requirements for the operation of the filter when issuing results by priority depending on geolocation; - a catalog of events with characteristics, the possibility of booking participation, the number of seats, taking into account the individual duration of each. Those. one event can take place every Thursday and Tuesday, it lasts about 3 hours and may not be held in the cold season, but the second can be a trip abroad, happens once or 2 times a month, lasts 5 days, similarly certain requirements for the operation of the filter upon issuance; - a catalog of equipment with the number of units, cost, availability depending on the city. Those. 3 catalogues, taking into account content changes depending on geolocation based ,
on certain triggers, language changes according to geolocation rules (for example: Lviv - Ukrainian, Dnepr - Russian). *this is not counting Corporate Events - an application for holding two or three land flowers (landing page). Something went wrong #1 The hourly estimate was 4 times less than what was spent as a result of development, i.e. The company suffered direct losses during the implementation of this project. Why: the level of specialists who evaluated and the depth of involvement were not enough for the entire product. What happened as a result of the Design can be seen on the current kava website, this is what the main page looks like. The site turned out to be juicy - we even went to awards with it ;-) Well, let's move on. There is a small surprise here - a change in the project manager. The new manager arrived already at the stage of layout and, upon familiarizing himself with the design and functionality, realized that the amount of work was large and the planned time would be extremely insufficient, then there was a change in the technology stack for the development of the project, they switched to the framework laravel5 - this engine allowed more flexible development and architectural solutions with taking into account increased load and expanded functionality.
