A Nasdaq-listed U.S. semiconductor company coordinated six to seven development teams across Canada, Brazil and China. Its ERP contained dozens of connected modules and requirements changed frequently as the business evolved.

Challenge

01

Distributed teams in several countries needed to collaborate closely on a highly interconnected ERP platform.

02

Requirements changed frequently, including during active iterations.

03

Dozens of CRM, quotation, quality, warehouse and service-order modules required consistent integration and visibility.

Solution

Established a five-engineer offshore development centre and a distributed Agile model built around small stories, daily communication, regular delivery and client-side continuous integration.

How we worked

01

Split work into two-to-four-day stories to improve estimation accuracy and responsiveness to change.

Planned iterations approximately three months ahead while allowing priorities to be amended during delivery.

03

Submitted code frequently for client deployment and integration, then refined completed functions from integration feedback.

04

Used daily direct communication, teleconferences and progress reports to maintain transparency across global teams.

Result

Delivered and enhanced dozens of interconnected semiconductor ERP modules.

Improved the client’s ability to respond to changing requirements through flexible story-level planning.

The ERP was recognised by Microsoft as a representative solution for the semiconductor industry.
