Case Study: a fintech corporation increases team throughput by 50% with Brainhub's agile process optimization

FinTech Corporation boosts throughput by 50% with Brainhub

Brainhub was engaged by a major fintech corporation to address challenges with the transparency and predictability of its value delivery process. The client was using Kanban but struggled to determine team efficiency and create data-driven plans for future product development.

By analyzing Cycle Time and throughput metrics, Brainhub identified a significant bottleneck in the code review stage. The vendor implemented two simple process improvements: having developers begin each day with code reviews and prioritizing the assignment of reviewers during daily stand-ups. These changes resulted in a 50% increase in the team's throughput and reduced the average Cycle Time from three weeks to just one to two weeks, all without requiring overtime from the development team.
