THE SOLUTION
With time running short, we hit the ground running, providing the valuable resource and expertise needed to deliver this interesting project.
We developed a high quality, thoroughly tested product, which was crucial given that it was to be used in safety critical scenarios. Challenges arose as we were working in an environment that was difficult to debug but we were able to apply a great deal of care and thought throughout the process to ensure the success of this solution.
We're delighted to confirm that the end result is now live and satisfyingly, it is being used by the customer on a daily basis.
