Our Partnership
A global consulting and leadership training company was presented with the risk of a business-critical digital project heading towards failure. To quickly understand why in order to pivot to a much-needed course correction, they turned to Protiviti, a consulting subsidary of Robert Half.
Opportunity
The organization had underestimated the role of Software as a Service (SaaS) in software delivery and ownership.
The organization needed a strong coding methodology and project management framework to successfully manage this critical asset for the long term.
Strategic Approach
Upon our Protiviti team’s review of the product being developed, the training company turned to Managed Technology Solutions for help in resolving the identified issues and completing the project.
Strategy and advisory
Secured highly skilled professionals with technical expertise in Amazon Web Services (AWS), Python, and other specialized programming languages and platforms to support every project phase
Developed a next-generation version of the client’s e-learning platform and completed the MVP for release
Enhanced the features and capabilities of the new, more efficient and cost-effective platform beyond that of the client’s costly legacy system.
Teaching and adopting a working Agile and Scrum methodology to apply it in the continual optimization of delivery of its software.
Results
With our help, the company is taking ownership of its learning management platform — a centerpiece of its business — and aligning the resources and capabilities they need to manage this critical digital asset for the long term.
An intense development period by the Robert Half and Protiviti teams brought the e-learning platform to optimal functionality and stability. We are now helping the company’s expanding in-house team create new features and address issues as they arise.
In many ways, Managed Technology Solutions served as the company’s primary development engine while helping the business transition to full ownership of its most critical digital asset.
The company also significantly reduced costs by turning off its old system, utilizing on-demand cloud computing services and eliminating use of a customer database it no longer needed.
Protiviti also helped streamline cloud usage during an overall assessment of the company’s IT environment.
