Reengineering a legacy system into a web-enabled, user-friendly and robust web solution
Addressing Operational Challenges
For years, our client relied on an in-house tool for large-scale report production, employing diverse data formats and a domain-specific language (DSL) within templates. This tool facilitated report generation in formats like Word, PDF, and PowerPoint, leveraging statistical data in CSS, XML, or SPS files.
Over time, however, the tool’s outdated technology posed operational hurdles. These challenges were further exacerbated by knowledge loss due to brain drain within the organization.
This combination of outdated technology and reduced expertise highlighted the pressing need for a modernized approach to report generation.
Innovative Solution Design
Reverse Engineering and Conceptualization
We meticulously dissected the legacy system's code to extract vital business logic and requirements. This process enabled us to understand the intricacies of report generation and template linking.
Web-Based Solution Design
Leveraging our findings, we devised a modern, user-friendly interface that empowers employees across the organization to effortlessly create and manage projects, integrate them with Word templates, and seamlessly execute mass report production.
Comprehensive Implementation
The implementation phase included developing a robust report generation engine, a flexible project management module, efficient user and task management systems, seamless notification mechanisms, and detailed error handling protocols.
