Arriba Data System is transforming healthcare case management through a robust .NET and Angular platform now backed by a resilient team culture, Agile execution, and bi-monthly releases.
THE CHALLENGE
After working with a previous development partner whose communication practices and technical approach did not fully support the platform’s complexity or long-term vision, Arriba Data System sought a partner that could not only match their ambitions but also contribute strategic expertise to accelerate delivery.
The system — architected with microservices and strong backend foundations — required a development team capable of adapting quickly, learning deeply, and delivering consistently within a live production environment.
To fully realize the product roadmap, Arriba needed a partner that could operate with precision, technical depth, and agility — and integrate seamlessly with a leadership team that already had a clear vision and strong communication with their clients and internal stakeholders.
THE SOLUTION
NetForemost partnered with Arriba to bring structure, momentum, and reliability to product development through a combination of agile methodologies, technical mentorship, and cross-functional team alignment.
Key initiatives included:
- The introduction of a Project Manager specialized in Scrum and Product Discovery helped formalize roadmap alignment and create a predictable delivery cadence.
- A pair-programming strategy led by senior engineer Tony Partida accelerated team onboarding and deepened internal knowledge sharing.
- Responsibilities were distributed across the team, allowing all developers to gain experience across different layers of the system — reducing dependencies and increasing team resilience.
- A staging-based release cycle and structured branching strategy were implemented, enabling up to two production releases per month.
- A shared Definition of Done improved delivery confidence and quality assurance.
IN ADDITION:
- The addition of a QA Engineer with test automation expertise strengthened release integrity. With each release impacting active production users, automated testing ensured stability and reduced risk — making frequent deployments both safe and sustainable.
- A UI/UX Designer was integrated into the product roadmap phase, translating feature concepts into interactive prototypes. This visual alignment helped streamline development and ensured functionality matched product vision from day one.
THE OUTCOME
- Accelerated Delivery: Two stable production releases within a single month — supported by strong QA and branching practices.
- Strategic Alignment: A technical partner that matched Arriba’s vision and enabled its execution through best-practice implementation.
- Flow Without Bottlenecks: Scalable development workflows and resilient engineering practices.
- Cross-Functional Strength: A team capable of contributing across the entire system — with clarity, confidence, and cohesion.
Just wanted to say that I'm impressed with the progress that we're making and with the current release that we will be pushing tomorrow. Good work, all
