Problem​
The key challenge was migrating the platform from an aging technology to a more capable and modern tech stack, ensuring it could continue to effectively support research programs offered through the university.
About
Texas A&M University System is one of the largest higher-education networks in the United States, focusing on education, research, and public service. To better support its core mission, the university system needed a software development partner to modernise its core digital research platform.
Technologies we used
Solution
Our delivery team based in Johannesburg and Gqeberha augmented remotely into the client’s existing project team who are based in College Station, Texas, USA.
The technical stack modernisation included the migration of Oracle ADF forms to an Angular-based frontend, implementation of Java Spring boot backend services and the integration with Oracle cloud-based infrastructure for scalability and reliability.
We have a total team of 17 people from Webtonic working on the project, providing the following capabilities:
- Solution Architecture
- Business Analysis
- Scrum Mastery
- Front and Backend Development
- Manual and Automated testing
Global Collaboration to move Texas into a new era of tech
Donovan Sherriffs, DirectorWebtonic have brought professionalism, technical expertise, quality of delivery and a collaborative approach throughout this engagement.
Business value​​
This project requires our teams to work in three parallel streams to meet deadlines. Our delivery approach keeps the delivery streams aligned, maintains team cohesion, delivers quality and value to the client in a consistent and predictable manner.
Our automated testing framework empowered them to perform regression testing with speed and confidence.
This fundamentally improves their development process, enabling them to release higher-quality features more frequently, reduce future project risk, and accelerate the platform’s ongoing transformation progress.
