The Challenge
With hundreds of subsidiaries from various business domains in different countries, information exchange in the tourism business is often inefficient
Our client needed a system that would gather information from all corporate and partner sources, update, and present it to users (both internal and external) based on business rules. The solution had to speed up information exchange inside the company and become an instrument for accessing travel-related information across all businesses of the company in real-time. This information included available rooms, facilities, location, weather, climate, images, and more.
Strategic Partnership
The Skelia team built a dedicated team for the client that consisted of 12 specialists, including:
- Release managers
- Scala developers
- Manual/automation QA engineers
