Delivered solution
Our dedicated team has significantly improved and extended the first version of the system over a short time period. We worked on improving and maintaining the existing product, and had the opportunity to develop new, complex features and modules.
Goals and challenges
#1
Developing a new forecasting module
Our team delivered sales trends forecasting with advanced algorithms and models, using the Python programming language. Extensive knowledge about statistics, including time series analysis and regression expertise, was crucial for meeting the client’s expectations.
#2
Working on advanced functionalities
iRonin.IT’s dedicated team had the chance to not only enhance the existing application, but also to develop new functionalities based on the client’s requests. The package of new features included both frontend and backend changes (e.g. multi-level bookmarks with a simplified database structure).
#3
General maintenance and bug fixes
We first joined the project at the end of 2018, when the tool was already released, but needed revamping and occasional customization for specific clients (e.g. IE frontend compatibility fixes). The core of the system was operational, but software optimization was crucial for further enhancements.

Results
Software architecture improvements
The first version of the system required a new technical approach and deep expertise in software development, not just experience with a particular programming language.
Delivering solutions on tight deadlines
Throughout the project, our team delivered various updates and solutions which met the client’s requirements. We successfully provided the required functionality and met deadlines.
Optimizing database structure
The initial database structure was considerably simplified by shifting from multiple schema models to one table. Migration scripts were provided for existing data.
