Coras is a US-based provider of modular SaaS project management solutions that bring together business intelligence, business process management and task management. Their goal is to help organisations in manufacturing, government, healthcare and technology to achieve information transparency, business agility and cost savings.
Coras made plans to expand and customise the capabilities of their platform for their existing and prospective customers. The updates had to address the needs of modern businesses as well as leverage innovative technologies.
Our client needed to quickly ramp up the team that would help them implement new functions. One of the team’s critical requirements was an ability to capture business ideas, come up with technology solutions and apply them. Coras contracted ELEKS following a rigorous vendor selection process and a recommendation from one of our existing clients.
ELEKS offered Coras a flexible cooperation model with on-demand feature-based development. Such an approach allowed Coras to craft quick responses to their customers’ needs, taking into account their industry and operational peculiarities.
The cooperation between ELEKS and Coras is driven by a lean approach and close communication between the client and vendor teams. We have established an iterative development process that allows our client to quickly test their business ideas and seek further investment through showcasing demos and PoCs.
Over the course of a year, we have helped Coras introduce several platform enhancements. Notable functions developed by the ELEKS team include a voice and text chatbot that assists with task management, a mobile version of the Coras platform built natively for Android and iOS, a business intelligence tool and a solution that secures a straightforward process of managing grants.
In addition to functional enhancements, the team has also been instrumental in complex database migration, architectural improvements and platform support. A multi-faceted team of dedicated engineers, business analysts, R&D engineers and user interface designers have been repeatedly engaged with the projects to secure their future success.
Coras continuously benefits from ELEKS’ flexibility and ability to quickly staff niche technologies and roles. With our support, they can quickly address the market need with a demo or PoC to secure further investments.
The enhancements that were introduced to their platform have allowed them to extend their customer base and deepen their relationship with existing customers.
The breadth of knowledge and understanding that ELEKS has within its walls allows us to leverage that expertise to make superior deliverables for our customers. When you work with ELEKS, you are working with the top 1% of the aptitude and engineering excellence of the whole country.
Right from the start, we really liked ELEKS’ commitment and engagement. They came to us with their best people to try to understand our context, our business idea, and developed the first prototype with us. They were very professional and very customer oriented. I think, without ELEKS it probably would not have been possible to have such a successful product in such a short period of time.
ELEKS has been involved in the development of a number of our consumer-facing websites and mobile applications that allow our customers to easily track their shipments, get the information they need as well as stay in touch with us. We’ve appreciated the level of ELEKS’ expertise, responsiveness and attention to details.
