The client
OnRamp (ex Harvard I-lab incubated startup), a B2B SaaS platform, is dedicated to streamlining the customer onboarding process for businesses by providing two crucial applications. These applications cater to customer success teams, implementation specialists, and end customers through a comprehensive suite of tools for integration, communication, and management.

The challenge
OnRamp approached us with a unique challenge – the need to rapidly scale its engineering team for an ambitious customer onboarding roadmap. The competitive hiring landscape in Boston and the U.S. posed significant obstacles to their growth. OnRamp sought a partner that could provide a ready pool of good talent, flexibility in team scaling, and seamless communication – that’s where INNOVANT stepped in.
OnRamp’s primary challenge was the urgency to build applications for customer success teams, implementation specialists, and a customer portal simultaneously.

The solution
INNOVANT’s Elastic WorkforceTM model emerged as the perfect solution for OnRamp’s dynamic needs. We offered a pool of seasoned senior engineers, enabling them to scale up their team swiftly and efficiently. The flexibility to adjust team size based on requirements became a key advantage, aligning seamlessly with OnRamp’s ever-changing demands. Our partnership became instrumental in enhancing OnRamp’s velocity and ensuring the success of their dual-application development.

“The overall quality of INNOVANT’s code has been excellent. There are a lot of things that could derail code quality and they’ve quickly learned our development style, our coding style, and our QA process, and on top of that, they’ve brought all their knowledge to make it better.
We settled INNOVANT for a number of reasons but the level of seniority and experience of their individual team members coupled with their overall business model allowing us to scale up and down quickly and easily and efficiently are all really great traits in a outsourcing company.”
