Please describe your company and your position there.

We are an education company who are in the domain of providing quality improvement services, curriculum development, and end-to-end management of educational processes.

For what projects/services did your company hire MAT Consultants, and what were your goals?

We had hired MAT Consultants for creating a comprehensive LMS for educational institutions and also to provide one-on-one standalone educational services to students preparing for various exams.

How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?

The vendor was selected on the basis of an open competitive selection process wherein we released the tender with the work description. The vendors were initially shortlisted on the basis of vintage of experience, team size and diversity in terms of previously completed projects, turnover of the firm, depth and breadth of domain experience, and most importantly, review from existing customers.

Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.

The work was to develop, install, and deploy an LMS for educational institutions that can be easily but securely replicated on institutional servers with utmost importance given to data security of student, teacher, and educational content data. The technologies that were used were primarily PHP and Codeignitor apart from security protocols for server security.

How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

A total of 4 people interacted from the vendor side including the CEO of MAT Consultants, who we must admit, and it won't be an exaggeration if we say, is a highly professional man with very high standards of quality perception when it comes to customer deliverables and who goes out of the way to ensure the customer is delighted. The rest of the team comprised of a senior developer, software tester, and customer service associate.

Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?

The final product that came out after multiple rounds of testing and upgradation cycles (and we must again thank the CEO and his team for their patience to listen to and understand a bunch of technologically-challenged teachers regarding the changes they intend to make in order to make the platform a robust one without much of a competition) was a robust learning management system capable of handling around 2000 students at a time, taking live classes and exams, generating instant test results, and a lot more. The product is an instant hit amongst the school/college community who are using it to ease their burden and taking education to every nook and corner of India even during such adverse pandemic conditions.

Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.

The project was managed primarily through video calls of the entire team through Google Meet or Zoom followed by individual one-on-one calls if required for any clarifications. The entire team of MAT was available for us 24x7 which helped us in communicating the changes required or sharing error messages that we got. They maximum time they took to resolve our queries was never more than 24 hours. This was the reason why such a complex and sensitive project was completed in a record time of 2 months.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

As far as we are concerned, what is unique and most impressive are the simple qualities of inclination towards customer service, patiently listening to and understanding the customer, give a reassuring smile when you tell them this is not what you intended them to make and they need to make it again from scratch (and this has happened multiple times since we were not that techno savvy), and finally when we compliment them for the more than excellent work they did, just smile again and say that they just did their job. Sometimes uniqueness lies in the amazing simplicity and modesty of things, which is a rarity in today's world.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

No...They were excellent in what they did.
