For more information about UNICEF and its work for children, visit www.unicef.org/serbia. **OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE** For what projects/services did your company hire Phoenix Consultancy LLC? UNICEF had the idea of developing a platform where young people could track and improve their mental health. The platform would serve as a place where comprehensive information could be found and where awareness-raising on relevant topics could be established, such as the importance of building emotional and mental health resilience among young girls and boys. Considering the fact that such a project required extensive research and preparation, we decided to outsource an experienced software development management agency. What was to come out as the result of their work was a comprehensive Project Discovery and a series of Software Requirement Specification documents which would serve as a valuable guideline and a solid foundation for the platform’s development. **SOLUTION** How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors? Zouth engagement, communication and opperations departments did extensive background research of companies and agencies that work in software development management and selected a list of those that could potentially be outsourced. A series of interviews with different agencies' CEOs and CTOs were held, among which was Phoenix Consultancy’s founder and CEO, Stevan Popov. Owing to the fact that Phoenix Consultancy has a similar approach to UNICEFs in regard to the selection process for companies they partner with, several meetings between Stevan and the Project Team were arranged. During initial interviews with the Project Team and our stakeholders, Stevan had gone above and beyond in providing ideas on how to improve upon the original platform design and offered an experienced approach from his previous involvement in the development of healthcare software products. Upon mutual agreement, it was decided that he would be contracted for the purpose of advising in the Product Manager role as a part of the Project Team. Describe the project in detail and walk through the stages of the project. As a part of UNICEFs awareness raising campaign, which had the intent of tackling the stigma that stops young people from talking about their problems and asking for help, it was decided to create a national online MHPSS platform. The list of benefits that the platform could provide was lengthy: young people had the opportunity to establish healthy lifestyles, have a space where they could find relevant information about self-care, resilience, positive coping mechanisms, sexual and reproductive health, as well as psychological support and ways to reach out to important services in their communities. After a series of meetings between the Project Team and young people and health professionals, a list of requirements was created based upon which the Project Team designed the outlines of what the finished product would be in the form of a comprehensive Project Discovery. The value of this document came in the form of: researching and analyzing the market and understanding the target audience developing user personas based on the data extracted from research understanding the end-users' points of view and creating user journeys forming the scope of work in form of a detailed and well-prioritized product backlog designing the original blueprints in forms of wireframes and mockups creating detailed requirements documentation such as SRS and PRD documents. How many resources from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

Also, the fact that they managed to finish the work a couple of weeks before it was planned without it affecting the quality of the software is remarkable.

At the beginning of 2022, they acquired a huge alcoholic beverage company with a portfolio of over 70 brands. The main issue the company faced was dispersed data, non-standardized design principles, SEO, and Analytics, as every brand house was leveraging its tech stack. To overcome this issue company decided to build a white-label solution with templated layouts, an analytics framework, and built-in on-site SEO that will be used as a foundation for each brand of the portfolio. In addition, the company decided to lean on D2C as a new sales channel, so the whole D2C solution needed to be also implemented on the white label. At an early stage, Merkle realized they will need more PM workforce to support such a huge program and decided to reach out to Phoenix Consultancy. One of our team members quickly became an integral team member leading a white-label stream and ensuring that the scope/budget/timeline are on track. Quite quickly, we started managing more than 30 people from different departments (development, QA, design, and analytics). As this was a one-off project in November 2022 the cooperation ended. ### GenEQTY Banking Platform GenEQTY operates in the FinTech industry, mainly focusing on banking services.

In such cases, enterprise resource planning software (ERP) is most commonly used due to the fact that these solutions are designed as a focal point for all important business aspects within one system. However, owing to the specific niche that the company operates in, it required a custom solution that will be tailor fitted to its needs, instead of a standard, premade one. This is where our contribution lied, in understanding the company’s day-to-day operations, proposing a set of features that will help manage them, developing the system itself, and making sure that it is done within the agreed-upon time and budget. The platform was designed as a web app so that it is easily accessible both on desktop and mobile devices, and it incorporates all modules necessary for managing different business operations such as scheduling elevator maintenance, emergency failure system management, engineer onboarding, employee time management, as well as sales processes and customer relationship management.   The company is among our oldest clients that we work with to this day, providing them support in terms of system maintenance and occasional features updates. ### SquadTrip SquadTrip is a black tech startup that is behind the first online payment solution for millennial group travels.

Having encountered several development issues which had a serious impact on their product roadmap as well as the budget designated for the platform’s development, SquadTrip decided to seek assistance from experienced Product Managers who’d be able to get the work back on track. To solve the main issue which was revolving around the fact that the scope was constantly fluctuating, meaning that many features were scattered while others were added mid-development, our Product Manager organized a series of focus groups, interviews, and surveys with the platform’s intended users, based on which they defined a more relevant set of features. Additionally, the platform’s behavior was constantly tested by one of our QA and software testing teammate, ensuring that it works as intended.   Securing that the high-value features were incorporated into the scope and that the product backlog was properly constructed in turn made a significant impact on the newly designed roadmap, owing to which new investors were attracted and additional project funding secured.  ### Schoolified Schoolified is a Learning Management System (LMS) that allows enthusiastic and curious people to connect with educators, enabling both to have a remote, yet classroom-like experience.

Teachers can build their custom tutoring environment and focus their attention on teaching, all due to the fact that this solution encompasses all tools necessary to streamline all aspects of their business, such as calendars through which students can book classes, payment processing, video conference calls and attendance tracking, shared whiteboard, storage for videos of their lectures, teaching materials, and live chat. Having this toolset available within one software enables both teachers and learners to have a pleasant and more equitable experience which drives better outcomes for everyone involved.   With our project management guidance, the platform’s development was planned out to the fault and tracked and cared for through several phases of its updates. With different iterations, new sets of features and requirements needed to be implemented, and it was left up to one of our team members to ensure that these projects were kept within the budget and timeline constraints. This was possible through dedicated and up-close work with cross-functional teams and making sure that stakeholders were always informed about the exact state of the development. ### Industry Recognitions - Official Member of Forbes Technology Council - #24 of 101 Top Consulting Startups in the Balkan ## Key Clients - UNICEF ## Packages ## Locations (2) ### Dublin, OH (Headquarters) - 5900 Sawmill Road - Dublin, OH 43017 - United States - 21 - 30 employees - Phone: +16145930165 ### Beograd, Serbia - Dimitrija Avramovica 12 - Beograd 11000 - Serbia - 21 - 30 employees - Phone: +16145930165 ## Contact Phoenix Consultancy LLC [Send a message](https://clutch.co/profile/phoenix-consultancy) ### Connect on Social - [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/company/phoenix-consultancy-llc/mycompany/) - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/phoenix-consultancy-107697365191603/) - [X](https://twitter.com/phoconsult)
