Fruitful Cooperation with Agile Solutions

Agile Solutions, a leader in Car Rental and Car Sharing services, aimed to expand its customer base in the B2B market.
This expansion necessitated customer-specific implementations and adaptations, prompting Agile Solution to procure professional development support from dmc-smartsystems GmbH, a reliable and scalable service provider. The project aimed to integrate new customers into Agile’s sophisticated backend system, enhance the web portal’s functionality, and expand the system to include new external services.

The Project

The initial phase involved detailed consultations with key stakeholders, including Agile Solutions’ internal team and dmc-smartsystems’ development experts. Requirements analysis highlighted the need for seamless integration of new customers, enhancement of web portal functionalities, and incorporation of new external services. A project team comprising specialists from various service providers was assembled, with a system architect overseeing the entire system structure. An Agile project management framework was adopted, facilitating iterative development and continuous feedback. Agile’s backend system, based on a SQL Server Database and supported by further backend services programmed in the PocoPro C++ Framework, provided a robust foundation for the project.
