Custom software case studies

Real-world software engineering case studies across broadcast, real estate, professional services, ecommerce, and operations teams.

Broadcast publishing and live-event workflows

Rebuilt a multi-site publishing platform and video operations tools to support live-event traffic spikes with strict access controls.

Industry
Broadcast media
Focus
Publishing platform + video ops
Services
Architecture, platform engineering, observability
Challenge
  • Legacy CMS struggled during breaking-news spikes
  • Manual approvals slowed time-sensitive updates
  • Auditability and role separation were required
What we did
  • Rebuilt editorial workflow with role-based approvals
  • Added queue-based publishing and caching layers
  • Instrumented SLOs, alerting, and incident runbooks
Impact
  • Faster publish cycles during live events
  • Stable performance under peak traffic
  • Lower on-call load with clearer signals
Field operations + inspections platform

Delivered a mobile-ready workflow for inspections, photo capture, and compliance reporting used by distributed teams.

Industry
Real estate & field services
Focus
Mobile workflows + document pipeline
Services
Product engineering, automation, reliability
Challenge
  • Data lived across spreadsheets and shared drives
  • Photo and document handoffs were inconsistent
  • Reporting lagged behind field activity
What we did
  • Unified mobile capture, review, and approvals
  • Automated document assembly and delivery
  • Built audit trails and real-time status dashboards
Impact
  • Faster report turnaround with fewer revisions
  • Clear handoffs between field and office teams
  • Better visibility for leadership and clients
Client delivery platform for professional services

Built a client portal and internal workflow to manage projects, approvals, and billing across multiple teams.

Industry
Professional services
Focus
Client portal + billing workflows
Services
Product engineering, access controls
Challenge
  • Approvals and updates were trapped in email
  • Billing data lived in multiple systems
  • Stakeholders lacked a shared view of status
What we did
  • Shipped a role-based portal for clients and staff
  • Connected milestones to invoicing and reporting
  • Aligned delivery teams around a single workflow
Impact
  • Shorter approval cycles and fewer blockers
  • Cleaner billing with fewer disputes
  • Shared visibility across delivery and leadership
Ecommerce operations and integrations modernization

Stabilized order, inventory, and fulfillment integrations across vendors with reliable sync and visibility.

Industry
Ecommerce
Focus
Order + inventory integrations
Services
Integrations, automation, security
Challenge
  • Sync jobs failed silently across vendors
  • Order and inventory data drifted out of sync
  • Limited ownership and poor runbook coverage
What we did
  • Rebuilt the integration layer with retries and idempotency
  • Added reconciliation dashboards and alerting
  • Documented ownership, runbooks, and incident flow
Impact
  • Fewer sync failures and less manual cleanup
  • Faster incident triage with clear visibility
  • Confidence to add new channels and vendors
