SharePoint based Corporate Web Portal for CPS

Corporate Project Solutions (CPS) contracted Sigma Software to perform development, testing, and go-live support of a corporate web portal. To develop wireframes for the portal, a design studio was engaged. In order to adapt the solution to customer’s expectations and save time for developing detailed specifications, the portal was developed in line with Agile approach, where development tasks are split into several iterations and intermediate demos at the end of each iteration.
