Challenge
Located in the US, the client is one of the largest manufacturing companies in the world. Their needs focused on enhancing the system in manufacturing semiconductor chips with a trusted vendor who has a long-lasting experience in working with international clients and global projects. The challenge is to integrate ease and accountability into its production chain with modern technology to replace its existing outdated system.
The client’s demands are two-fold:
- Financial project: Develop a Web app to support their Account Receivable procedures on their internal Cloud platform. Besides scalability and self-deployment, the new app also needed to include features such as invoice processing, customer communications, forecasting, evaluation, and dispute resolution.
- Manufacturing project: Work closely with their in-house team to develop, upgrade and maintain the system, apps, and web apps that served semiconductor research and manufacturing purposes
Solution
Since the framework was agile development, team members needed to work in different time zones and every member must be able to use English fluently to ensure no obstacles happen when communicating with the customer. In this project, all applications must be developed under microservices models on IBM cloud, Kubernetes and Docker.
