About
Gandalan specializes in software development, particularly for custom-made component production, such as insect screens. Gandalan's IT team created software for the CNC machines to cut the aluminium frames to the required dimensions. This allowed for the automation of the execution of hundreds of orders placed by partners distributing products. After years, their custom software required refreshing and modernization to meet distributors' needs. Read more

FOCUS AREA
Challenge, approach, and impact
Custom software required refreshing and modernization
The software developed by the Gandalan team was a desktop application written in the VisualBasic programming language. After years, their custom software required refreshing and modernization to meet distributors' needs. It was challenging as the app required updating several hundred partners. Another issue was the absence of automated tests, which caused many bugs (e.g., produced custom products had incorrect dimensions).
