Challenge

The company sought to consolidate digital development onto a shared global platform while coordinating multiple business units and product lines with rigid development schedules. Existing consumer applications also lacked sufficient attention to user feedback.

Solution

Centralized Digital Development

Toptal rapidly assembled a multidisciplinary team of strategists, product managers, designers, architects, developers, and program managers to support digital initiatives across multiple product lines.

User-focused Product Delivery

Toptal introduced a stronger user-focused product management approach and helped coordinate development through a shared cadence using Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe) practices, improving visibility into dependencies and delivery timelines.

Outcome

Significant App Rating Improvement

Improvements to the company’s consumer applications helped increase app store ratings from 2.5 to 4.5 stars while substantially reducing latency for cloud-connected hardware.

More Predictable Digital Delivery

The coordinated development model improved on-time delivery and the reliability of development commitments while enabling the company to launch support and new capabilities across multiple product lines.
