BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m a consultant for a financial services technology company. We have systems that are used by large banks and other customers for payment services including a payment gateway.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Tejora Private Limited?

We were short on in-house resources because we had too many projects going on. We were looking at third parties to fill those positions. We were looking for a team that had expertise in the payments domain. We wanted a mixed hybrid team.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Tejora did the wireframing and initial UI/UX for our platform. They had four people who were working with Java. We’re looking at getting more resources to start another project.

What is the team composition?

There are 10 people. A few people work with me directly and some people work with the other team members. There’s also a project manager who works very closely with me, as well as a couple of business analysts, a couple of dev ops, four Java developers, and one UI/UX person.

How did you come to work with Tejora Private Limited?

We compared some vendors, and Tejora were really price competitive and happy to take smaller projects and take risks. They were able to come up to speed very quickly. They’re very approachable.

Their key team is quite interactive in the customer day-to-day work. They have a lot of payment domain expertise. I had worked with them earlier in my career and found them to be very suitable in the business domain and they also have a fairly good amount of expertise on the dev ops, Java side.  

How much have you invested with them?

$125,000-$250,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working together in June 2019 and the work is ongoing.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

Tejora's support is substantial in terms of their client-facing ability, especially the project manager and the business analysts. We’ve introduced them to a few of our banking clients. Their feedback has been fairly positive. We’re growing the relationship based on what we’ve seen so far.

How did Tejora Private Limited perform from a project management standpoint?

They’re very forthcoming and agile in terms of getting the resources up to speed and their own training programs. They’ve been very supportive. The timeline and cost are both followed very well. We get various reports that are managed through the project management tool we use.

What did you find most impressive about them?

They’re very forthcoming about what is and what isn’t possible. Tejora doesn’t commit to something they can’t do. In our projects, many times the requirements aren’t very clear upfront. Over time, they become clear. They’re very nimble.

Are there any areas they could improve?

They could make the relationship they want to build with their client more defined and the kind of growth opportunities they want to seek with their client. That’s the one thing that is missing in terms of interacting with various levels of the management team and the client.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Go to them with a high level scope. Have a discussion with them. Wait for them to come back with a structure proposal. As a client, I’d rather have an interactive session or workshop upfront to share my requirements and allow them to share their take on those requirements.
