The client specializes in online auctions. They offer a full range of auction services that include business auctions and estate sales.

Client Requirements and Challenges

The client needed ongoing outsourcing help for cropping several thousand images that are used in their online auction catalogs. They were seeking a partner that would remotely access and crop images using a virtual private network (VPN). The client wanted the service on a recurring basis every six months and chose outsourcing to save the expenses of hiring an in-house team. The client requested an initial free trial of 10 images before proceeding to the full project.

The project involved this primary challenge -

• High volume of images to be cropped in a short period of time

FWS' Solution

The Flatworld Solutions photo editing specialists developed this solution -

• The team included two dedicated image editing professionals for both the trial and full projects
• The free trial involving 10 images was completed successfully
• During the full project phase, each specialist completed two images per minute
• The team processed and cropped 2400 images using Photoshop
• The client was pleased with the quality and on-time results. They signed a contract for additional assignments

Final Results - Completed 2400 Images and Awarded Long-Term Contract

In this case, the client reported three favorable outcomes in particular by the Flatworld Solutions (FWS) team - precision cropping, fast turnarounds of edited images, and cost savings that exceeded 50 percent in comparison to other outsourcing providers.
