The Brief: Update a Legacy Platform

Sigli partnered with Pàu to update a legacy application that was used by store clerks to initiate, monitor, and manage bike leases.

Among other issues, the platform relied on outdated communication technology to handle bank transactions. A modern banking API integration that worked seamlessly with a web-based user interface was needed, in addition to broad frontend and backend updates.

The Process: Laying the Foundation for a Successful Partnership

As we would be partnering with Pàu to work together on an application for one of their clients, it was important that we understood the project scope clearly and provided a breakdown of costs.

After giving clear estimates, we moved into the development, testing and implementation phase, with regular meetings throughout. We also provided ongoing post-deployment support.

Sigli followed a five-step process:

Initial consultation and discovery

Time and budget estimate

Solution design and architecture

Implementation and development

Delivery and fixes based on the feedback

Project Management and Communication

The project was managed according to Agile and Scrum methodologies. We used a number of channels (email, in-person meetings, project management apps, etc.) to collaborate with Pàu, the client’s technical and management team, and bank representatives for the API integration.

The Results: A Modernised Internal Platform and Banking API Integration

Sigli updated both the backend and frontend of the client platform. This included integrating and configuring the bank API on the server side and creating a new web user interface (UI) for store clerks.

Expanded functionality of the client’s internal management platform.

Improved user-facing workflows, streamlining the lease management process for store clerks.

Enabled seamless app communication with the bank via an API integration, automating several important financial processes.
