Transformative Software Product Development for a Health Technology Company
Radixweb helped us complete an imaging product with a compatible development environment and deliver it to our beta testers
Hello, I am James, Chief Scientific Officer of a healthcare technology company in the US. We hired Radixweb to complete the development of our ImagenUniversal project and make necessary adjustments to the product. The team successfully rescued the project and enhanced the overall functionality and usability of the software.
Highlights
“Daily calls were very helpful in coordinating across different the time zones.”
"They delivered fast and professional work."
The Radixweb team did an outstanding job in completing all the tasks in a timely fashion.
A Goal-Oriented HealthTech Asset
The Kansas City-based healthcare firm has more than 15 years of experience and leadership in cardiac PET and SPECT imaging and such imaging research solutions. They had a halted project as a result of some unforeseen events and hence were looking for a competent dev team to complete it.
After collaborating with Radixweb, the firm efficiently executed the stalled project and made it up to the release of the revamped product called ImagenUniversal. Our dedicated team worked as an extension to the firm’s internal resources and rebuilt their organizational backbone in a timely and cost-efficient manner.
We always had daily development calls to assess where the project is at and collaboratively figure out solutions to the problems.
Let's take a look at the conversation:
1. Please describe your business and your role.
We specialize in cardiovascular imaging products and services, clinical research, and medical practice, helping our clients meet the ever-changing demands of today’s healthcare field.
I am the Chief Scientific Officer and oversee all aspects of software product development.
2. For what tech/business challenges did you hire Radixweb?
We hired Radixweb to help our team complete the ImagenUniversal product after the death of our lead program. The situation was pretty challenging because the project was left in an awkward state. So, our primary objective was to complete the product and get it to our beta testers.
3. What were the deciding factors in choosing Radixweb over other vendors?
I had faith in Radixweb's work after our initial conversation as their case studies and success stories seemed to be highly promising. To be precise, there were two key factors that made them go on with their development team: cost-effectiveness, which you will not find in our local region, and strength of the underlying team which is hard to match.
4. Can you please briefly tell us about the scope of the work?
The scope was to build a compatible development environment and make changes essential to improve the usability and safety of the product.
The entire time we have worked together, I have only had one lead software engineer. He was always there for us. We get along great on Skype, and if required, we can call him whenever we want.
Since it was simple for us to keep a single point of contact, I haven't met with the developers or designers. They deployed competent members in the development team to work with us, despite the fact that we were first a little skeptical because the project was only halfway finished.
I have been most impressed with how quickly Radixweb has come to understand the project and the tools we use.
5. How did Radixweb perform in project management?
The project has been largely managed by the Radixweb team in collaboration with us. We have daily development calls to assess where the project is at and collaboratively figure out solutions to problems. These are all documented in Jira.
They work really quickly and efficiently. The main factor in our decision to hand over our project to them was this. When collaborating with offshore developers, that isn't always the case.
6. Do you have any measurable outcomes of the partnership?
Well, they delivered the overall project in a very short period of time. It was largely completed by August 2022. This followed several months of iterative work with our beta testers. By September, the product was ready for formal release testing and before the year's end, it was successfully released.
7. If there is any area you found the most impressive about them.
Mr. Joshi was the senior software engineer I interacted with. And he is who I have been most impressed with - how quickly he understood the project and the tools we use. He also has done an outstanding job in completing tasks in a timely fashion and ensuring that there’s no single requirement left behind.
The Firm’s Final Words
We got along great with the Radixweb team during the course of our engagement. They truly stood out for their creative thinking and desire to change things. Five-star ratings are hard to give, but Radixweb deserves them. Whenever anyone asks references for qualified offshore vendors, especially for healthcare software solutions, I will not hesitate to recommend them.
James was initially aiming at increasing their development capabilities when they first started working together with Radixweb. Our software developers backed up the firm by filling in talent gaps and putting together a comprehensive team in order to deliver a full-fledged healthcare software product. While utilizing the best remote communication techniques, the Radixweb team deliberately worked in a nearshore environment for a team situated in Missouri, USA.
