Software development outsourcing - NATEK success stories

What are some of the examples of NATEK successfully providing our Customers with our software development outsourcing solutions? The insights shared here are drawn from our Specialists’ hands-on experience over years. 

Scaling to meet critical aviation needs

A global technology company that powers the travel and tourism industry, whose systems operate 24/7, processing over 60,000 transactions per second, was faced with rapidly changing project requirements. The company needed to quickly scale its development Team for a high-stakes project involving flight coordination, including balancing airplanes with cargo, passengers, and fuel, as well as managing take-off procedures and ramp supervision.

To meet this challenge, NATEK provided experienced Software Developers. Their responsibilities included resolving bugs, tackling complex algorithm improvements, and contributing to the development of new software features.

With NATEK's expertise and seamless collaboration, the project stayed on track, with all objectives met within the scheduled timeline, ensuring smooth operations for one of the world’s largest industries.

Empowering global leader with market intelligence user interface

An international leader in providing critical information, analytics, and solutions across industries such as aerospace, defense, automotive, energy, and technology, embarked on a major project to create and maintain a cutting-edge business and market intelligence platform. The goal was to create a product that offers seamless access to comprehensive industry analysis, in-depth market research, and economic forecasts from over 2,000 globally renowned experts.

NATEK's Experts played a key role in designing and developing the presentation layer of the mentioned web application. They were also responsible for formalizing User Stories and Defects in line with business requirements and actively participated in code reviews. 

The result? A powerful, user-friendly platform that exceeded the initial expectations. Our successful partnership continues to this day, driving further innovation and growth.

Creating a precious metals trading platform for a global financial leader

A division of a multinational financial services holding company and a leading global private bank and wealth manager, needed a robust platform for trading precious metals such as gold and platinum. They sought a cutting-edge solution to streamline and enhance their trading system.

NATEK Team stepped in to develop innovative solutions for their precious metals trading platform, leveraging Java (J2EE) technology. Our Experts created web services integral to the platform’s operation and ensured smooth deployment of these services.

Thanks to our expertise, the platform now supports seamless and efficient trading, empowering our Customer to maintain their leadership in the global financial market.

How to prepare for outsourcing of the software development project?

To successfully develop new software, the development team must first understand your needs. The initial meetings, workshops and requirement collection phase are critical to the project's success. Thanks to them, we can craft detailed specifications, provide accurate estimations, and determine the team size required to deliver our Customers with the desired software solution. This approach also allows us to establish a realistic budget and project timeline.

However, during the requirement collection phase, you may face challenges such as:

  1. Lack of software expertise: Without the right expertise, it can be difficult to define how the software should align with and support your business goals.
  2. Lack of understanding: Sometimes, the internal IT team may not fully grasp the business workflows or the software's impact on the areas it will be used.
  3. Lack of time: When there's pressure to implement the software quickly, it can be tough to thoroughly capture all necessary processes and conditions.

But with an experienced Team such as NATEK, no obstacles are insurmountable. Our Specialists can conduct a comprehensive business analysis to ensure that all your needs and expectations are clearly defined and understood. This solid foundation will serve as the basis for a successful agreement and project outcome.
