Solution Development Processes and Management

When you are looking for an established solution development team (SDT) service that is supported by an experienced team, you should investigate how the team is built and managed. There are thousands and thousands of really professional developers, but sometimes they can’t develop a valid app for you because the group of experts is not structured, established, and managed.

We call this a SDT service (SDTS). With the SDTS, you don’t need to look for separate developers and build a team or invest in the education of team members. The SDTS is run by a team that has Fintech expertise as well as technical experience. This team has internal and external communication processes and a solid structure. In this article, you will learn more about how such a team is established and how it can be useful to you.

When to use a solution development team service

The following are a few of the reasons you should use an SDTS:

  • When you add new product lines and do multiple integrations
  • When you close additional investment rounds and need to scale software development
  • When you acquire other companies and need to integrate their platforms into yours

To establish a smooth project workflow, you must set a clear project life cycle. In this case, every party, client, and vendor, including every team member, will understand all the steps and the reasons to do them. The SDT service should have its own project life cycle. You can see it on the diagram.

  • Starting the account
  • Project knowledge base document development
  • Onboarding a new team member
  • Software development
  • Service delivery communication/account development process
  • Client satisfaction survey
  • Account risk management
  • Termination of consultant’s work on a project
  • Completion

Solution development team structure

The SDT has an established team structure. There is always someone who takes responsibility for establishing a team for every client. This process consists of the following steps:

  • Setting an account manager
  • Building a strategy
  • Providing risk management
  • Developing releases

If the system you build requires creating several separate services, you may need a development team for each individual service. Each team may have a unique structure. Together, we will define exactly what it is you need and provide team members who will fill the required roles in each team. 

For example, your system will have an AI module that analyzes data gathered in the database and a client panel that gathers the data and through which the client may find the results of the data processing. One team may include the following:

  • AI expert
  • Database engineer
  • Two backend engineers
  • QA engineer

Another team may include the following:

  • UI/UX designer
  • Two frontend engineers
  • Backend engineer
  • QA engineer

Your solution team development

INSART’s goal is to help you grow by achieving your business objectives. Achieving these goals stimulates further development, which entails the development of our joint project. So we have a win-win strategy.

As projects and the requirements for different services grow, so do their teams. Sooner or later, they grow to their maximum size (for example, eight people). Then it makes sense to add a new team that will strengthen the first and support the overall system. 

When scaling the team, each of the smaller units has all the necessary roles for running the project. The team management leads all team units and provides the client with a complete understanding of the current situation.

  • Team 1—Service 1
  • Team 2—Service 2
  • Team 3—Service 3

You can add as many teams as your project requires. The app can require the creation of different components. Every team can work on these parts. For example, team 1 can develop the interface and establish communication with end users. And team two could work with big data and data analysis using ML.

Summary

We oversee the launch of the project and the establishment of the team and the process because these are giant steps toward completing the project on time and satisfactorily. When the information is clear and understandable to each participant in the process, the number of roadblocks is reduced, the team works quickly, and the results are effective.
