The TAIS assessment platform is a secure, web-based system designed to help TPS evaluate current personnel as well as screen prospective candidates across large, distributed organizations.
Built as a multi-tenant system, the platform establishes a hierarchy of organizations, allowing for management of distributors, their clients, and subgroups of assessment takers. Advanced statistical analysis tools support the creation of normative groups and allow for individual comparisons against organizational benchmarks.
The system also has in-depth reporting and custom visualizations, making it easy for decision-makers to understand the results. The platform is designed to grow alongside the program, with ongoing updates to support evolving organizational structures and assessment needs.
TAIS Performance Systems is the exclusive global publisher of the TAIS inventory, which is a renowned psychometric assessment tool developed by Dr. R. M. Nideffer. They are committed to providing top-tier, performance predictive, psychological assessments to organizations across the world.
The company had developed an existing assessment platform that had become difficult and increasingly costly to maintain. Critical infrastructure and sensitive data were controlled by an external legacy developer, leaving the business without ownership or confidence on its platform's future.
They partnered with Tandem to regain control - maintaining the legacy system during the transition, while rebuilding from the ground up.

Codebase Rebuild
We completely rebuilt the platform, maintaining all of the features and functionality while resolving issues.
The project's core requirements were to maintain system continuity while salvaging all of the essential intellectual property, client assessments and report logic, as well as rebuilding the system under an improved and flexible framework that could be further iterated upon after launch.
Our discovery phase focused on uncovering the current state of the platform, as well as understanding the key functionality and underlying statistical logic. Since business continuity was a core requirement, we also did discovery around what services would be required to maintain the legacy system during the rebuild.

Tandem designed and developed a rebuild of the system from the ground up while working with TPS to manage the budget and cashflow considerations. We created a new project architecture that resolved long-standing issues with the existing platform, streamlined and improved the user interface, and brought in expert resources to maintain their project while the rebuild and migration of assessment records took place.
