Building a Dental Practice Marketplace
Our client approached us to build a specialised marketplace that would bring together buyers and sellers of dental practices. The founders were eager to address what they saw as a gap in the market for a self-directed platform that incorporated tools for collaborating with service providers like attorneys and accountants. Sigli designed, developed, and deployed a full marketplace solution. It included a wide range of features, including marketplace listings, intuitive user dashboards, and service provider

USA
Our client runs a unique and highly specialised online marketplace. It is dedicated exclusively to the self-directed buying and selling of dental practices in the USA.
It also offers administrative tools, such as document management workflows, automated value estimations, and a directory of third-party service providers (attorneys, accountants, lenders, etc.).
The company describes itself as "creating a centralized option for dentists, dental brokers, and their service providers.”

We were tasked with building and deploying an entire online marketplace to connect buyers and sellers of dental practices.
The platform would also offer supplementary tools, including a calculator for estimating sale prices, a directory of service providers, and a group chat feature to connect the teams of buyers and sellers.
After understanding the founders’ vision for the process, Sigli produced a preliminary design. Once this was agreed on, we handled all aspects of development, testing, deployment, and post-deployment adjustments.
Collecting requirements from leadership: we began by understanding precisely what our client wanted their new platform to look like.
Story creation and design: after understanding requirements in depth, we created and refined early-stage designs.
Implementation and development: with the design greenlit, we built supporting architecture and a working solution.
Testing and quality assurance (QA): before full implementation, we conducted thorough testing and quality assurance.
Deployment and feedback: we managed the full roll-out of the platform and gathered feedback from initial users, making adjustments as necessary.
Sigli followed an Agile methodology with a specified team leader and regular meetings with leadership. We maintained several always-on channels, such as email.
