Chexout case study

The challenge

"Our internal development cycles have accelerated in ways we could have never imagined before the pandemic. We truly have to keep moving and developing around the clock to deliver to a client base under extraordinary stress.Enhance user experience while equally ensuring the application could support our security and scalability standards."  Joe Paulini, CEO Chexout

Due to the onset of the pandemic in March 2020, there was an urgent need to help public organizations track COVID-19 exposure. This required an agile software development team to rapidly build new features and functionality by customizing Chexout’s Contact Tracing suite for COVID-19 specific use.

To meet the critical demand for COVID-19 functionality, Chexout sought to bolster its software development team with senior engineers who could work across time zones to create a near 24-hour product development cycle. This capability was crucial to Chexout’s ability to deliver to a client base under extreme pressure and stress, many facing life or death consequences from the pandemic
