Software delivery

SOFTWARE DELIVERY
Sectors: RETAIL / INSURANCE / TRAVEL / MEDIA
Following the success of a new App developed to offer product recommendations in retail stores - a tech start-up division of the client’s business had been created to deliver this new platform software as a service for other mobile phone providers.
With product sales for multiple clients already in place, I became delivery lead for the client sales. With a limited budget and head count resource, I came up with a delivery plan to deliver the product to four different clients within eight weeks.
Collaborative ethos
I was able to build and run a successful delivery team - getting the best out of everyone and creating a ‘can do’ spirit within the team whilst they working under extreme pressure.
Engaging with the key stakeholders, I created clarity and predictability for the software delivery, and in simple terms, provided constant updates that let them know what was going on and the progression that was being made at all times.
The success of deliveries led to the new division becoming an attractive buying proposition for other third parties.
