Building A Team

According to the Offshore Development Center model, the project was divided into 3 main phases. The first phase was to study the current system and the document in as many business rules as possible in the project. 

To the second phase, maintaining the existing system and further improving the necessary features were the core operations. Then, starting to make a completely new system (with new technology), more convenient and easier to use with more performance based on the requirements studied from the old system; as well as performing compare testing to ensure the results of steps. 

The third phase was to conduct Android AI applications to support checkin / checkout for Merit employees. The App can work with both old and new systems, allowing the use of a PIN or face to check in / checkout. 

Moreover, this application was designed to meet a variety of working conditions under different light levels and for all employees. (Regardless of age, skin colour).

Saigon Technology provided the resumes of the programmers required by the client. Then a dedicated team of required personnel was identified on the basis of the client's approval. In this team, the Project Manager’s primary responsibility was to effectively communicate with clients on all matters relating to the ODC and assign task priorities, supervise the work and guarantee the quality to ensure the success of the ODC. 

Agile Scrum is applied to manage project progress.
