Labelling and printing software case study - Kallik

The collaboration with ELITEX was successful. Their team developed several unique software solutions, including a rule engine editor. They were responsive to inquiries from the client and consistently met deadlines. Customers can expect strong project management skills and creativity.

About the Project

Kallik, a leading provider of enterprise label and artwork management software, specializes in solutions for highly regulated industries such as pharmaceuticals, medical devices, cosmetics, chemicals, and consumer goods. For over twenty years, their cloud-based software, Veraciti™, has helped businesses streamline the printing, editing, and updating of labels and artworks, reducing errors and speeding up product launches.

Veraciti™ is a comprehensive solution that manages every step of the labeling and artwork printing process. This software centralizes interactions with artworks and labels using solutions such as intelligent templates and asset & phrase management utilities. At the same time, this tool helps global businesses sway compliant and manage changes effectively. With Veraciti™, companies gain clear visibility and control over their labeling and packaging operations, ensuring each label is compliant and ready for the market as well as the end user.

Founded in 2001, Kallik has grown into a global labeling management software provider with customers in the UK, US, EU, and other parts of the world. Customers rely on Kallik because its software ensures product and brand consistency and lowers the risk of product recalls. Kallik’s advanced technology and commitment to regulatory compliance have made it a trusted partner for such market giants as Castrol, Mary Kay, P&G, and dozens of other global brands.

The Challenge

Kallik's artwork management software solution, Veraciti™, featured robust Java-based functionality but suffered from an outdated UI, making client-side usage cumbersome. When Kallik reached ELITEX, they needed to:

  • Update and modernize the UI of Veraciti™;
  • Extend the application’s features;
  • Get further ongoing development;
  • Get regular maintenance;
  • Ensure the proper quality of the project

Lacking the necessary front-end expertise within their in-house team (their team involved mainly back-end developers), Kalik sought a partner proficient in UI modernization and front-end development to augment their team and enhance their Veraciti™. And that’s when ELITEX first appeared.

Our Process

The partnership between ELITEX and Kallik began with targeted tasks under a scope-of-work model. Utilizing scrum methodology, the team, which included front-end developers from ELITEX and Kallik’s back-end developers/QA specialists back then, conducted bi-weekly demos and planning sessions to align expectations and outline subsequent tasks.

Developers from both sides had several business trips to meet in person. Personal meetings and exchanges between team members from both sides fostered a culture of honest and transparent communication, critical to our collaboration’s success. Together with the zero bureaucracy approach, this partnership’s foundation allowed for the successful integration of Kallik and ELITEX teams.

Our Solution

Since the initial cooperation was successful and ELITEX had proven trustworthiness as well as strong technical front-end expertise, Kallik delegated more and more responsibilities to ELITEX’s team. First, the decision was made about creating a cross-functional QA team, in which both QA specialists from ELITEX and Kallik were involved. This move fostered a deeper integration of both teams. Later, the team grew, and ELITEX added two back-end engineers. And as a result, the ELITEX team that worked together with Kallik included:

  • Four front-end engineers (working mainly with JavaScript)
  • Two back-end engineers (Java)
  • Three quality assurance engineers
  • Project manager
  • Team lead

The Result

The collaboration between Kallik and ELITEX revitalized Veraciti™, transforming its UI and leading to the development of unique software features, including a rule engine editor built from scratch. This partnership, lasting for over three years, not only updated the existing interface but also enhanced the software’s overall functionality, helping Kallik continue to lead in its field. A joined team served as a firm basis for Kallik’s business.
