Case Study: Alloy drives data-driven engineering improvements with Code Climate Velocity

Alloy reduces cycle time by 57% with Code Climate

Alloy, a leading provider of financial risk solutions, was founded on the principle of data-driven decision-making but needed a better way to access and understand its software engineering data to improve team performance and efficiency. They partnered with Code Climate and implemented its Velocity platform, a Software Engineering Intelligence tool, to gain these insights.

Code Climate's Velocity platform connected to Alloy's development tools to extract and interpret data, providing deep analysis and visualizations on key metrics like Cycle Time and PR Throughput. This solution enabled Alloy to identify bottlenecks, foster team health, and set realistic targets. The results were significant, including a 57% reduction in Cycle Time, a 55% improvement in Time to Merge, and a remarkable 388% increase in PR Throughput per contributor.
