We have been selected by the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) to lead the development and maintenance of its Business Computing applications. This five-year project underscores our commitment to innovation and agile development , employing Scrum and SAF methodologies in one of the most advanced and complex research environments in the world.
CERN , known globally for operating the world's largest particle physics laboratory , is a beacon of European and global scientific research. Its contributions to the field of physics include milestones such as the discovery of the Higgs boson particle, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), and the World Wide Web . This research center is not only a pillar for the advancement of scientific knowledge, but also an incubator for transformative technologies.
Faced with the need to evolve and maintain its essential administrative systems (from Human Resources to Logistics) to support its global operations and research projects, CERN is turning to ALTIA to adopt agile development methodologies for these systems, seeking to improve efficiency, flexibility, and responsiveness to rapid technological and business changes.
At ALTIA, we have proven experience implementing agile methodologies such as Scrum and SAFe in technologically complex environments, as well as our ability to manage multidisciplinary agile development teams, combined with our participation in various projects for European and international organizations.
We will be responsible for providing development services based on a wide range of technologies, with a particular focus on JavaScript, Java, and Oracle . Our agile, multidisciplinary development teams will work closely with CERN's Business Computing department, ensuring the operation, maintenance, and evolution of tailored developments that meet CERN's administrative needs in critical areas such as Human Resources, Finance, Purchasing, and Logistics.
“Looking to the future, this collaboration promises not only to advance efficiency and innovation within CERN, but also to mark a milestone in the application of agile methodologies in the field of enterprise computing,” says Jorge Saenz, Account Manager at ALTIA.
This project not only strengthens our position as a leader in the agile development sector , but also represents a unique opportunity to contribute to the advancement of science and technology globally. The collaboration between Altia and CERN is a testament to the potential of technological innovation to facilitate scientific research and improve complex administrative processes .
