About the service

Our team created a solution including a biometric data processing system operated by a team of scientists which lets the customers purchase a DNA test and check the results. The system was also made compliant with HIPAA, a federal act that regulates the use, disclosure, and safeguarding of protected health information in the US.

Lykon is an innovative German startup that provides health consulting services based on biomarker analysis.

The company delivers highly personalized health recommendations. Lykon didn’t have a strong enough development team to build a back-office system that would enable dynamic modification of DNA test-based health recommendations without changing the code.

What was the challenge?

  • Compliant with HIPAA, a federal act that regulates the use, disclosure, and safeguarding of protected health information in the US.
  • Close cooperation with external developers from Lykon’s team.
  • Unfamiliar with the healthcare sector and the need to adapt solutions from other industries.

What was included in this service

Five of our specialists – PHP and frontend developers – joined the development working with the client in the nearshoring model. The team maintained a smooth management style and excelled to deliver promised deliverables.
