Business Challenge

In addition, all parties of cooperation have lost motivation to speed up work and provide better response time.

  • the long search for qualified engineers with a specific background;
  • the high cost of in-house software development team + administrative expenses.

  3. an in-depth interview with the ACTech Technical Lead.
