Executive Summary

A database for public art partnered up with Flexisource IT to resolve a specific challenge: creating an interactive map platform accessible for government and large organisations to manage public art auditing. 

Flexisource IT followed their strategy in problem-solving. First, they collaborated with the client on the solution for a more organised platform. The platform proposed was expected to result in an end-to-end solution for the government and large organisations to manage, audit, and derive value from their art collections.

It had taken 10 months to complete the project. The client continued to collaborate repeatedly with the team, making it a successful delivery.

About the Client

Our client started out as a public art database which was built organically. Overtime, new clients began to onboard and migrate their collections within their database. The client is now targeting government agencies and large organisations managing public art.

Problem Statement

What started out as a simple database for public art turned into a large platform of users that needed to manage their installations. However, to keep up with their company’s growth, the client chose to upgrade their services for customer convenience and accessibility.

The client wanted an organised platform which could provide end-to-end solutions for government and other organisations to manage their public art. This included auditing and deriving the value of each installation. 

Their biggest issue for the client was the lack of accuracy in their map service. They needed an interactive map included in the platform that can pinpoint locations of public art. After finding out about Flexisource IT, the client proceeded to reach out to us and discuss their issue. 

Flexisource IT’s Solution

Flexisource IT chose to accept the collaboration, promising to develop the end-to-end solution based on the client’s requirements. Utilising the Flexisource IT method, the client was promised a speedy delivery thanks to the scrum process implemented by the team leads and managers. 

Roadblocks

The entire partnership lasted 10 months with continuous collaboration with the client. As a result, there were no significant roadblocks and issues during the implementation. 

While Flexisource IT offers services mid-partnership if needed, the entire process didn’t require one. It was a smooth sail which ended in a profitable partnership.

Results

Because the team were able to deliver quality results at an efficient rate the client did not have any complaints. Additionally, changes were needed and it was a successful end to a months-long development and QA stage. The clients were extremely pleased of the outcome, enjoying the entire application’s performance.

Because of the team’s efficiency and experience, the team

For the Flexisource IT team, it was all in a day’s work. The team was both efficient and quick because of their experience in handling tight deadlines, sensitive data, and product delivery.

Other Recommendations

Currently, the platform is a huge success that requires no other updates or additional services. However, because technology evolves at an advanced speed there are chances that updating the platform will become a requirement.
