Project Solution

The project solution leveraged a hybrid approach, integrating both agile and waterfall methodologies to effectively manage project execution. By blending the flexibility of agile methodologies with the structured framework of waterfall, the project team ensured adaptability while maintaining a clear trajectory toward project milestones.

To streamline project management and enhance collaboration, Monday.com was implemented as the primary tool for tracking project progress. This versatile platform facilitated real-time updates, task prioritization, and resource allocation, enabling seamless coordination among team members and stakeholders.

For the development aspect of the project, GitHub served as the central repository and collaboration platform for managing code and version control. This allowed developers to work collaboratively, track changes, and ensure code integrity throughout the development lifecycle.

Effective communication with stakeholders was prioritized throughout the project lifecycle. Regular updates and status reports were shared to keep stakeholders informed about project progress, milestones, and any potential challenges or risks.

Furthermore, the project team played a pivotal role in translating stakeholder requirements and desires into actionable technical steps. By bridging the gap between stakeholder expectations and technical implementation, the team ensured alignment between project goals and execution, ultimately delivering a solution that met stakeholder needs and expectations.
