Challenges Faced

Every successful project comes with its unique set of challenges. Here are the key obstacles we identified and overcame during this project.

1.Talent gap and delays: Somnoware's rapid growth was hampered by difficulty in hiring specialized developers quickly, causing project delays and slowing expansion
2.Need for scalability: The existing system required a more scalable architecture to support increasing data volumes and users, and to prepare for integration with ResMed's larger ecosystem post-acquisition
3.Feature expansion: To stay competitive, Somnoware needed to develop new modules (for example, a DME order management feature to connect physicians with durable medical equipment providers) and improve its platform's capabilities, but internal resources were stretched thin
4.Inefficient deployments: Without automated pipelines, deploying updates across development, testing, and multiple production environments was slow and error-prone, risking downtime and slowing the delivery of new features

Solutions Implemented

Our team developed innovative solutions to address each challenge, ensuring the project's success and exceeding client expectations.

1.Dedicated Development Team: Through Supersourcing as a mediator, provided two full-stack developers proficient in Node.js, React, TypeScript, Loopback 4, MySQL, and AWS, with one engineer growing into a Lead Developer role
2.Micro-frontend Architecture: Re-engineered the front-end into a micro-frontend architecture, allowing independent development and deployment of different parts of the application for greater agility and scalability
3.Unified UI Components: Built a reusable UI component library ensuring consistent look-and-feel across modules and speeding up development of new features
4.DME Module Development: Created and managed the Durable Medical Equipment (DME) Manager module, enabling Somnoware to offer a one-stop solution for physicians to place and track equipment orders digitally
5.CI/CD Automation: Established continuous integration and delivery pipelines integrated with Somnoware's workflows, automating testing and deployment across Dev, QA, staging, and production environments
6.Release Management: Took charge of release management, ensuring each deployment for VA clients, commercial clients, etc. was smooth and well-coordinated

Through Supersourcing as a mediator, Legresca provided two full-stack developers proficient in Node.js, React, TypeScript, Loopback 4, MySQL, and AWS, who integrated seamlessly with Somnoware's in-house team. One of our engineers grew into a Lead Developer role, spearheading a team for Somnoware.

Somnoware faced talent gaps causing project delays, needed scalable architecture for ResMed integration, required new modules like DME order management to stay competitive, and had inefficient deployments across multiple environments without automated pipelines.

The DME (Durable Medical Equipment) Manager module enables Somnoware to offer a one-stop solution for physicians to place and track equipment orders digitally. This eliminated manual processes (like faxing) by connecting all stakeholders on one platform.

We re-engineered the front-end into a micro-frontend architecture, allowing independent development and deployment of different parts of the application. This modular approach resulted in greater agility and scalability of the platform.

Somnoware achieved 50% faster team onboarding, 50% higher development velocity, 100% improved platform capabilities covering full patient care cycle, successful scaling to 800+ healthcare facilities, 40% operational efficiency improvement, and 30-40% cost savings.

We established continuous integration and delivery pipelines integrated with Somnoware's workflows, automating testing and deployment across Dev, QA, staging, and production environments with minimal manual effort, improving reliability and release speed.

The DME module transformed client workflow by eliminating manual processes like faxing orders. Physicians could now place and track equipment orders digitally, reducing coordination time from weeks to minutes and improving overall patient care efficiency.

The platform built by our team was robust and scalable, able to handle growing user base and data loads with ease. The solution's adaptability ensured that after Somnoware's acquisition, integration into ResMed's ecosystem was smooth – the platform was "enterprise-ready" for its next chapter.

The platform extension provided Somnoware with competitive advantages through comprehensive sleep care management, improved client satisfaction, scalable architecture for future growth, and seamless integration capabilities that supported successful acquisition and continued expansion.

Our team built a reusable UI component library for Somnoware, ensuring consistent look-and-feel across modules and speeding up development of new features since common elements could be reused rather than rebuilt.
