Ultimately, Shedyourfat selected Computools as its digital transformation contractor. The company was impressed with Computools' experience in healthcare digital transformation and expertise in various digital technologies.

Digital Platform & Technology

To build a proper marketplace with a reasonable budget and achieve the client goal of the fastest content filling and easiest SEO optimisation, we chose a set of proper frameworks, ready solutions and integrations.

PHP

Hypertext Preprocessor (PHP) is a general-purpose programming language originally designed for web development. PHP runtime executes any PHP code in a requested file, usually to create dynamic web page content or images used on websites or elsewhere.

WooCommerce

WooCommerce is an open-source e-commerce plugin for WordPress. It is designed for small to large-sized online merchants using WordPress. It is an easy toolkit for selling anything online. The great thing about WooCommerce and its POS is that it is regularly updated and very secure. Since it is updated regularly, it will always be compatible with newer versions of WordPress and will not experience a lot of bugs.

MySQL

MySQL is an open-source relational database management system (RDBMS). MySQL includes solid data security layers that protect sensitive data from intruders. Rights can be set to allow some or all privileges to individuals. Passwords are encrypted. MySQL can handle almost any amount of data, up to as many as 50 million rows or more.

WordPress

WordPress is a content management system (CMS) based on PHP and MySQL that is usually used with the MySQL or MariaDB database servers but can also use the SQLite database engine.

Communication Framework

Open and efficient two-way communication is crucial to the success of a digital transformation project. Following consultation with the client, we agreed upon a clear and unambiguous communication framework with scheduled, regular face-to-face and online meetings and regular reports by email.

Our communication ecosystem also incorporated a structured documents environment and client access to Computools' internal task-managing platform. This made the general project roadmap and specific processes transparent and clear for all parties.

Scrum encourages teams to learn through experiences, self-organise while working on a problem, and reflect on their wins and losses to continuously improve.
