Case Study: National Foreign Work Visa Solution

Trigyn’s client was a national government agency with the mandate to protect the interests of its citizens who wish to emigrate to certain other countries for work. The government client had and existing program that regulated the activities of domestic and foreign employers, recruiting agents and other parties recruiting the country’s citizens to work in certain foreign countries.

Although the client had implemented a technology solution approximately a decade ago, the government saw an opportunity to expand the performance and capabilities of the legacy solution by incorporating current digital technologies.
