Management Advantage is a leading provider of aged care and clinical management software. Looking to move their legacy VB6 codebase to .Net and improve their software development process, they engaged SSW to help. Since coming on board, we've implemented an effective Scrum process, provided guidance on best practices for .Net development, and mentored the development team in both technical and process areas.

Together with Rebecca Liu, we created and deployed a new website based on the .Net Orchard CMS. This work included design and creation of unique components to facilitate specialist website functions.
- An Internal Management Application for a major electricity provider
A long-running project, Damian came on board to help bring the software to completion. Combining DynamicData, ASP.Net, and rich Silverlight interfaces, the solution was a powerful tool to help their management team.
