Interaction at CapitalVia



Recently while visiting Indore, India I got a chance to interact with IT team of CapitalVia. The experience was awesome. I was amazed with the enthusiasm of team and management in moving towards Agile way of working.

CapitalVia is a financial market research and consulting company which provides trading recommendations in equities, commodities & forex based on technical research. It is located in Indore, India. It has in house IT team of 30 dedicated, enthusiastic and collocated technical and business savvy people.

CapitalVia has organized its IT team into following roles

  •  Product Owner ( although CampitalVia call them Business Analysts) – Three in number
  • Technical Lead – Three in number
  •  Developer – Twenty in number
  •  QA – Three in number
  •  Program Manager ( CapitalVia  defines as General Manager) – One in number
 
     CapitalVia is mostly PHP shop and customers for IT team are internal to organization which is focused more on functionality, ease of use, and adaptability of applications. IT team manages existing systems as well as develops new ones as requirements arise. There is no separate maintenance team; one who develops the application becomes responsible for its maintenance which encourages maintainability and bug free applications.
     
     After interaction with them I got privilege to recommend ScrumBan as basic operating model to start with. I hope team will experiment with recommendations.
