Our client delivers valuable software. Smarter, faster, better. At affordable prices.
It all started with … a simple and accidental solution in response to a complex customer question from a stock exchange listed company. An idea 8 years ago, their passion for tech development, quality and a strong partnership have led to becoming part of the Deloitte Fast50 and FD Gazellen. Today they support their customers in their pursuit of becoming greater organizations, by supporting in-house technology teams with their teams as a service model (TaaS) or (fixed price) project development.

What they do ...
Our client helps to automate business processes by fully integrating off-the-shelf solutions with custom built products.
They develop apps and platforms for companies, which are highly complex, have lots of integrations and which can handle a lot of users simultaneously.
When possible they develop solutions using highly re-useable, scalable and customisable pre-built building blocks to speed up development and have quality built-in from the start.

How they make it work ...
Our client connects locally and deliver remotely. Their clients have access to lead developers/architects in the Netherlands as local experts who can support on-site. This person will take control of the communication and project management and act as a bridge to the development team. They have set up a tech hub in Brazil. This provides their customers with the opportunity to access a broad variety of technical expertise, flexibility and the opportunity to scale up quickly.
