Global costing system client server
Project duration: 6 years, 9 months
Brief description
Further development of a quotation costing in the area of laboratory diagnostics, supporting the entire process from product configuration and pricing to price negotiations and quotation creation. The software is used worldwide with one of the leading pharmaceutical companies, enabled by client-capability, multi-lingual support, and complex configuration options.
Supplement
The application consists of client and administration components, application servers and a landscape of databases. The rich client is the user interface of the 3-layer architecture and implemented with Windows Forms. WCF and Remoting services are used to communicate with server processes hosted on an IIS. The .Net Framework is used here. NHibernate is used as the persistence layer. A Web service-based approval workflow is offered. For downstream systems, data are exported in XML format. Release management is supported by Subversion. For the different versions, there is an automated build and unit test process that provides an up-to-date development status to all stakeholders. For the latest release, there is a continuous integration build. Scrum is used as an agile process model. The PTA project team is responsible for technical implementation and provides support for the rollout.
Subject description
Offer costing supports general costing for several customers and analysis partners in different diagnostic areas such as clinical chemistry, immunology, molecular diagnostics or blood-gas analysis. The laboratory conditions of the customer, the parameters to be determined and the number of tests are entered. The material list with reagents and other consumption materials is created automatically, the calculated quantities can be adjusted by the user. It is possible to define several price variants that differ in the distribution of costs to certain material combinations and different service and finance options (e.g. leasing vs. sale). The prices for materials, tests and findings are determined and can be overwritten by the user. Every entry leads to an immediate recalculation of profitability and other KPIs. Configurable business rules are evaluated automatically. The application includes an approval workflow.
