Case Study
A forward-thinking software agency, specializing in e-commerce solutions for B2B customers in the UK, faced a scalability challenge. Their monolithic architecture, tailored to individual clients, hindered growth and operational efficiency. Partnering with us, they embarked on a transformative journey. In just 10 months, we architected a headless, API-first e-commerce platform, shifting them to a multi-tenant SaaS model. This not only streamlined their operations but also empowered their B2B customers with a flexible frontend solution. Furthermore, we aided in restructuring their teams, ensuring a clear demarcation of responsibilities and optimizing delivery. The agency is now poised for exponential growth, with a robust platform and an efficient organizational structure.
Objective
To transition from a monolithic architecture to a scalable, multi-tenant SaaS e-commerce platform, catering to a growing clientele with diverse requirements.

- Existing monolithic architecture limiting scalability.
- Individual codebases for each client, hindering efficient updates and feature rollouts.
- Need for a flexible frontend solution to cater to diverse client needs.
Our Approach

- Development: Built a multi-tenant SaaS platform with a flexible frontend solution.
- Team Restructuring: Segregated teams into API/core, consulting, and implementation to optimize delivery and cater to specific client needs.
Solutions Delivered
