At Coding Partners, we collaborated with the World Health Organization (WHO) to enhance their Partners Platform, a critical tool for coordinating pandemic responses across 194 member states. Our team of skilled developers played a pivotal role in delivering mission-critical features under tight deadlines.

The Challenge

‍

The World Health Organization (WHO) needed to rapidly deploy and scale a digital platform to coordinate global COVID-19 response efforts across 194 member states. Key challenges included:
‍

Lack of Structured Documentation: The platform required detailed technical documentation to facilitate maintenance, feature expansion, and stakeholder communication.
‍
Need for rapid deployment of new features: WHO urgently needed a technically robust survey feature to support the Therapeutics Initiative, designed to quickly gather and manage data on global therapeutic needs.

‍

The Solution

‍

Coding Partners executed several targeted technical interventions:
‍

Technical Documentation: We developed an extensive wiki describing various functionalities, notifications, and APIs, as well as the delivery process. This documentation became a crucial resource for the wider team, improving transparency and efficiency. Key aspects included:
‍
Rapid Development & Deployment: We engineered and deployed a robust survey tool for WHO's Therapeutics Initiative, ensuring timely and reliable data collection and reporting.
‍
Platform Stability and Scalability Enhancements: Improved the backend infrastructure to enhance platform stability and responsiveness, enabling the tool to reliably handle increased user loads during critical response periods.

‍

The Results

‍

Enhanced Platform Reliability: Improved infrastructure and technical documentation significantly enhanced platform reliability and maintainability, ensuring 99.99% uptime even during critical global health events.
‍
Accelerated Feature Deployment: Successfully delivered critical survey functionality within tight deadlines, directly supporting WHO's urgent global health initiatives.
‍
Improved Scalability: Achieved improved platform scalability, enabling the WHO Partners Platform to effectively handle growing demand and increased usage.
‍

Through this targeted technical collaboration, Coding Partners significantly strengthened WHO’s digital capabilities, directly supporting critical global pandemic response efforts.
