The Challenge
A fully remote consultancy with 15 developers across 4 timezones. No visibility into async work patterns. Problems with over/under-allocation of developers to projects. Sprint estimates were wildly off (only 45% accurate).
The Solution
Implemented GitProductivity Business with workday estimation per project and branch analysis for allocation. Real-time visibility across timezones transformed their planning process.
The Results
| Metric | Before | After | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sprint Estimation | 45% accuracy | 82% accuracy | |
| Over-allocation | Frequent incidents | Reduced by 70% | |
| Cross-timezone Visibility | None | Real-time for all managers |
“We went from guessing to knowing. GitProductivity turned our sprint planning from art into science.”
