Errors making it to production can be costly. Companies with dedicated platform teams and automated testing report a 40% reduction in post-release defects (Puppet). Standardized environments and automated checks help catch issues early, ensuring a smoother release process. Less firefighting, more developing! These types of things are what a platform team can do for you.

Platform Teams are key to minimizing the errors that make it to production by standardizing workflows, automating testing, and setting up robust CI/CD pipelines. Here’s how they make a difference:

Automated Testing at Every Stage: By integrating automated testing into CI/CD pipelines, Platform Teams ensure that code is thoroughly vetted before reaching production. This reduces bugs and errors, catching issues early in the process. According to the 2024 State of DevOps Report by Puppet, companies with automated testing see up to a 40% reduction in post-release defects.

Consistent Environments: Platform Teams set up standardized development, testing, and production environments, ensuring consistent code behavior across all stages. This eliminates the environment-specific errors that often occur in manual deployments.

Proactive Monitoring and Feedback Loops: With real-time monitoring and automated feedback, Platform Teams can quickly detect and address issues before they impact users, leading to faster resolution times and fewer production errors.

Enforcing Best Practices: Platform Teams implement coding standards, security checks, and compliance protocols, significantly reducing the likelihood of critical errors making it to production. The report highlights that teams with robust platform support experience a 30% decrease in code errors, allowing developers to release with confidence.

In the hospitality industry, seamless integration of property management systems (PMS) isn't just a convenience—it's the backbone of exceptional guest service. But all too often, hotels (and retreats or event centers) face data issues that can compromise efficiency and the guest experience.

Many hotels and event centers juggle multiple systems—from reservations and housekeeping to CRM platforms. When these systems fail to communicate effectively, the results can be less than stellar: data silos, service delays, and a subpar guest experience.

One camp we worked with used to have its data siloed in three different systems, one for donations, one for bookings and another for on site purchases in the store. If the sync went down for any of those systems went down it was a difficult day for customer service, accounting and the front end teams at the camp.

Does your organization struggle with having data in the right place at the right time? Our team has integrated SAP, Salesforce, Workday, Dynamics and many other enterprise systems together seamlessly. Feel free to shoot us a message, book a meeting thru our website or respond to this post if your company could use a hand with their integrations.
