Problem
What was the problem to be solved?
Qualis needed a way for clients and vendors to place orders online instead of using the previous paper-based methodology.
Solution
What was the proposed solution?
We implemented an online ordering system integrated with equipment and patient data.
Technical
What was the technical approach to the project?
We implemented the online ordering system using the existing Ruby on Rails application.
Management
What was the project management approach to the project?
We used an Agile methodology to iteratively build out the components of the functionality.
Lessons
What did you learn from working on this project?
The most important lesson learned is how to manage large-scale projects that have to function perfectly. Using Agile methodologies with huge test suites, we created a flawless feature to allow for online ordering and automated billing. And it had to be flawless because we're talking about real dollars and cents, not to mention patients' lives.
Benefits
How did this project benefit the client?
The online ordering system made Qualis exponentially more efficient as they no longer had to deal with paper invoices and they could offload the ordering management onto the clients and vendors themselves.
