Client's Testimonial
"For a project of this scale, security and reliability were paramount. Developers.dev's SOC 2 certification and their mature, CMMI Level 5-assessed processes gave us the confidence we needed. They delivered a platform that not only met our complex technical requirements but was also embraced by our employees."
Mark Richardson, Global Head of Talent Development.
Client Introduction
A global manufacturing leader with over 50,000 employees across 40 countries needed to replace its disparate and outdated collection of training tools with a single, unified learning experience platform (LXP). Their goal was to streamline mandatory compliance training, facilitate internal knowledge sharing, and offer personalized skill development paths.
Problem
The client needed a highly secure, scalable, and globally accessible platform that could integrate with their existing SAP ERP and Workday HRIS systems. The platform had to support a wide range of content types (video, SCORM, documents), track certifications, and provide detailed reporting for auditing and compliance purposes.
Key Challenges
Enterprise Integration
The platform required seamless, bi-directional data synchronization with mission-critical HR and ERP systems.
Global Scale & Performance
The solution needed to provide a fast, reliable experience for tens of thousands of simultaneous users in different geographic regions.
Stringent Security
As a publicly-traded company, the platform had to adhere to the strictest data security and privacy standards, including GDPR.
Custom Reporting
The L&D and compliance teams required complex, custom-built reporting dashboards that their off-the-shelf solutions couldn't provide.
Our Solution
We assembled an Enterprise-focused POD, including a Solutions Architect, .NET developers, a certified AWS Cloud expert, a dedicated DevSecOps engineer, and an integration specialist.
🔒 Secure API-First Design
We designed the platform using an API-first approach, creating a secure gateway for deep integration with Workday and SAP, allowing for real-time updates of employee data and training records.
🌐 Multi-Region Cloud Deployment
Using AWS, we deployed the application across multiple geographic regions (USA, EMEA, APAC) with load balancing and a Content Delivery Network (CDN) to ensure optimal performance for all users, regardless of their location.
🛡️ DevSecOps Automation
Our DevSecOps engineer implemented a CI/CD pipeline with integrated security scanning (SAST/DAST) and continuous monitoring, ensuring security was an integral part of the development process, not an afterthought.
📊 Data Visualization & BI Pod
We leveraged our specialized Data Visualization & Business-Intelligence Pod to build a powerful, custom reporting engine using Power BI, providing the client with the exact analytics they needed for compliance audits.
