project context
WaveBreak's primary concerns revolved around the need for an efficient data management system to analyze and extract meaningful insights from their research data. Additionally, they needed to expedite their operational efficiency and sought expertise beyond their in-house team.
industry demand for innovative treatment
The industry's demand for innovative treatments, specifically for neurodegenerative diseases, gave rise to WaveBreak’s research into the advanced therapeutics for a range of neurodegenerative conditions, which could be translated into viable medical solutions.
optimizing & augmenting data management
WaveBreak needed a solution to optimize data management to systematically store and classify extensive data from their studies. They sought to streamline this process and access relevant data efficiently, to draw meaningful insights easier and accelerate their drug development process.
expediting operational efficiency
A key concern for WaveBreak was enhancing operational efficiency. They sought solutions to automate redundant tasks, improve resource allocation, and reduce time-intensive manual processes. These improvements would free their researchers to focus more on their tasks at hand.
expertise beyond the in-house team
Even with a competent in-house team, WaveBreak recognized the need for additional expertise to manage the growing complexity of data. They wanted to access the advanced skill sets to build a robust data management platform crucial to making their research more effective.
"One of the primary advantages of partnering with EPAM is the access to the vast talent pool. We depend not only on a single individual but also on an entire network of experts. With in-house employees, knowledge is limited, and problem-solving takes significantly longer. EPAM's collaborative culture and tech expertise substantially expedite our problem-solving process, which is immensely beneficial."
cooperation highlights
Our team addressed the startup's concerns by providing a Python expert who helped to develop a comprehensive data management platform (DMP). This platform enabled WaveBreak to optimize their data, streamline their processes, and increase operational efficiency, further expanding its engagement with EPAM Startups & SMBs.
data management platform developmentThe most significant outcome of this cooperation was the successful development of a comprehensive data management platform. This AWS-based platform streamlined WaveBreak's complex data, enhancing their research efficiency and accelerating their mission to revolutionize drug discovery for neurodegenerative diseases.
expertise beyond developmentWe brought more than software development expertise to WaveBreak's operations. The cooperation included translating complex scientific issues into technical solutions and enabling WaveBreak to maximize the potential of its data better. Our team also played a significant role in ideation and creative questioning, pushing the boundaries of conventional solutions.
fixed budget & ease of scaling up and downUnderstanding the constraints and flexibilities of a startup, EPAM offered WaveBreak a cooperation model that allowed working within a fixed budget while providing the flexibility of scaling the team up or down as required. This ensured that WaveBreak received optimum service from skilled professionals without straining their resources.
ownership of the projectOur team did not restrict themselves to defined roles but became an integral part of WaveBreak, demonstrating an active ownership of the project. They approached challenges creatively, posed insightful questions, and took initiatives that greatly contributed to the success of WaveBreak's data management project.
"We were not just looking for more team members but for the right set of skills. We needed someone who could bridge our work's scientific and technical aspects, not just follow instructions but also ask creative questions and take ownership. Thus, our goal was to find the right talent."
