Wes, the CEO of GroupBC, a small company based in Reading, England, approached us following funding from a venture capital organisation. Their goal was to develop an ETL platform to synchronise files across projects in Common Data Environments (CDEs).
Wes had clear goals from day one:
- Keep the core team focused on developing their primary product.
- Recruit top-tier talent to build the ETL platform.
- Deliver the new platform to market within six months.
We assembled a highly skilled team in Brazil, which delivered the first version of BC Sync ahead of schedule, just under the six-month target. The new platform gave GroupBC a significant competitive edge, enabling them to win bids against much larger competitors.
Within twelve months, GroupBC’s success culminated in its acquisition by Bentley Systems, a global leader in digital construction software.
We identified a crucial opportunity to outpace our competitors, but scaling our development team internally presented a significant challenge. Thanks to Techifide, we were able to scale rapidly, leading to a successful exit in just 12 months.
