WHY ORGANIZATIONS CHOOSE US

Toptal in Action

Discover the cutting-edge benefits our clients enjoy globally from the Toptal network.

A new hosted system mitigates one of Bridgestone’s biggest expenses.

Challenge: Bridgestone needed elite UI designers to create a solution to manage and track tires through the retreading process.

Impact: Tire costs are the third-biggest expense for trucking companies. However, the creation of BASys—a tire tracking system with an easy UI for effective data entry—led to significant savings for Bridgestone.

Toptal gave us access to the best designers out there, and they’re not easy to find. Those designers integrated very quickly with our existing teams and very quickly understood our business case—the business value of our solution.
