Transforming property valuation management through improved communication and onsite collaboration
Dramatically reduced turnaround times
Previous development company was slow, with poor communication leading to lengthy email chains, misunderstandings, and project delays.
Improved communication through regular onsite meetings and enhanced project management with a developer working 2 days per week at their office.
Turnaround time for new features was greatly reduced, allowing Opteon to become one of the market leaders in property valuations.
Understanding the challenge
Opteon is a large collection of franchises that provide property valuation services across Australia. Prior to July 1st, 2011, Opteon Sydney was known as Addisions Valuations.
The application was originally developed by another development company based in Sydney. The management of Opteon were becoming increasingly frustrated with the lack of progress and poor communication with their previous vendor.
For every new feature request and bug fix, there were lengthy email exchanges that resulted in misunderstandings and rework. It became clear that email was not an effective medium for managing complex development projects.

Communication-first approach to development
By sitting down with the directors of Addisions and discussing the current solution, it quickly became apparent that the problem was due to poor communication between themselves and their current vendor.
CoSource proposed that a developer work with them 2 days per week at their office. This innovative approach achieved two critical objectives:
With a fixed 2-day per week schedule, Opteon could accurately budget their development costs and plan their feature roadmap with confidence.
By working onsite, the communication barrier was completely removed, resulting in much quicker turnaround times for features and bug fixes.
