A UK leader in outsourcing Life, Pension and Investment workflows sought to optimize their business model through system code development changes. They estimated spending an extra £500,000 if they did not make this business model shift. Tescom was brought in to validate this proposal. Our experts bridged the gap between upper management and the IT department, giving them the insight needed to save £200,000 from their allocated amount.
 Need to Ensure Compliance with Legal and API Standards?
A well-known global shipping company has hundreds of third-party vendors offering solutions that must integrate and comply with the customer’s legal and API standards. This exposure put the customer’s reputation on the line. Tescom’s solution shifted the responsibility and cost of the testing effort away from the customer and simultaneously decreased the vendors’ time to market. This dramatically increased testing efficiency and effectiveness, as well as reducing time and associated cost- helping the customer save more than $560,000 in IT and compliance costs over 7 years.
One of the largest providers of motor insurance in the UK uses
technology to keep premiums low. This customer needed a quick and easy
way to transfer manual test cases into an automated tool. Tescom
implemented an automation framework so new manual test cases could be
easily entered into the automation tool for years to come. The
customer’s test cycles were reduced by 30%, and testing resource time
was cut in half!
Want to Cost Effectively Manage a Global ERP Implementation?
A pharmaceutical company implemented Oracle in more than 40 sites worldwide. Tescom did the test planning, test management, test design and test execution as well as by creating a bank of test scripts, and customizing this for the projects specific to each implementation site. As a result, the customer saved weeks of work!
Just the Ticket! Tescom Saves National Transportation Board Millions of Dollars!
A government board responsible for national transportation planning was losing money with antiquated ticketing systems and security applications. In order to upgrade these systems, they engaged Tescom to perform ongoing quality audits throughout the project. During the course of the project, which lasted five years, Tescom led 8 IT audits, several security audits and financial audits, which resulted in the recognition of 21 major errors where the systems did not conform to requirements prompting their rectification and thereby facilitating a successful go-live.
In order to minimize man/hours every time a change, patch or fix was released, the client needed to be able to formalize, streamline and accelerate testing. Tescom recommended and implemented a test automation strategy that allowed for an efficient and easily repeatable testing process.
When a large retail bank acquired a test automation tool to monitor their online banking system, they realized they didn’t have the proper resources, processes or procedures to manage it. Tescom helped the customer reduce the number of test cycles, and introduced an automation approach beyond basic “Record and Playback” method to a modular, maintainable, cost-effective process.
A European financial industry leader required expert help to test connectivity of a new trade feed interacting with the London Stock Exchange. Tescom managed and supported functional testing, system integration, regression testing, external integration, member testing, non-functional regression testing, and user acceptance testing. As a result, the customer was assured that their code worked properly, and received feedback as to how to use their test management tools more effectively in future testing projects.
One of the UK’s largest investment management services needed a robust testing methodology, and to select the proper testing tools for the long term. Tescom provided this and more- including automated testing, performance and load testing, test plan management, design and execution. The customer now has the testing tools their business needs to know for certain – on an ongoing basis – that their website will stay up and running, no matter how many visitors it gets.
Technology drives the rules for online lottery gaming systems and the nature of the service is that there can be zero margin for system failure. The customer needed to create a testing department to guarantee that its technology was operating at maximum efficiency and could continue to be evolved to support future innovation. They chose Tescom to manage their new testing department.
Can Open Source Test Tools Help You Stay within Budget?
A joint venture between an award-winning media company and a web development company created an online portal dedicated to a popular television program. Prior to the first broadcast, the website had to be proven to support expected traffic. With no performance test expertise and no budget for testing tools, Tescom came in and used open source tools as well as conducting all testing needed to prove their website could handle 75,000 visitors per hour.
The longest toll road in Australia was created in four years, and with Tescom’s help, was delivered 5 months ahead of schedule! Tescom managed the testing for their automated tolling system, web-based billing and SAP interfaces which were used for the back-end of their high-speed, free-flowing, multi-lane toll road’s electronic toll-collection system.
