Challenge
Our client is a leading public sector company working on multiple cases of states, counties and their legal associations. Managing multiple legal cases and their bonds with a multitude of prosecutors was a laborious task for our client. With a suitable agenda of accessing information through a common source, the client decided to develop a cloud-based product that automates the entire management of legal cases along with the status of each case of the prosecutors.
The custom application needed to have strong capabilities of statistical analysis. This provided the best information to each office and its officials to conduct prosecution services. The most critical challenge faced during the development phase was to build a cloud-based solution that incorporates all the features available only on the desktop version along with a cloud-based version.
The Key Challenges of the project were:
- To develop a Cloud-based system with top-notch look, feel, and functionalities for windows.
- To develop a single-window solution for each case and prosecutors.
