Business Challenges X3’s customers, after subscribing, had to manually print their respective training schedule each time it got modified , track and mark the progress manually – with no scope for real time reporting to the coaches. It always took the athletes a while before their coach(es) could analyze their performance data and come up with necessary remediation tips. Overall, the process had scope for introducing more agility. X3 also wanted to develop the following capabilities: • Suitable technology to support further growth • Social media integration and adding tracking goals. • Easy mode of interaction between coach and athletes • Provision for automated payment
