Solution
Taking Testing to the Cloud
Working with OutSystems partner Unisys, NZTA was able to transition from its aging and unsupported national driver license testing system to a modern and agile cloud-based platform built and maintained using OutSystems.
The platform’s drag-and-drop interface allowed NZTA to quickly deliver its flexible, customer-centric vision within a demanding timeframe—far faster than was possible with any other approach.
Due to the expiring software license of the previous solution, it was imperative for the project to be delivered on time. And with OutSystems, the Unisys development team delivered the solution on time with all of the agreed functionality. This was all the more impressive as additional requirements surfaced during the agile development process.
In total, a team of five developers delivered the entire project in less than six months—including market research, design, development, integration, user testing, and change management.
Not only was the new testing platform implemented quickly, but it also provided a level of flexibility that ensured the NZTA wouldn’t have to undergo a similar overhaul again. The system, with its extensive self-service capabilities, is built on an open platform with no vendor lock-in. This means the transport agency can accommodate any future changes in direction, react to legislative adjustments, or simply add functionality—such as support for other languages—whenever it needs to.
