Case Study: MTS Systems Corporation achieves on-time, on-budget Agile TestSuite delivery with Coherent Solutions

MTS and Coherent Show How Agile Development Works Using Global Resources

MTS Systems Corporation needed to accelerate development of its flagship MTS TestSuite materials and component testing software while fully adopting the Scrum agile process, but budget limits made hiring local developers impossible. The company turned to Coherent Solutions (with teams in Minneapolis and Minsk) to provide the extra development and testing resources and help make distributed, cross‑border Scrum work.

Coherent Solutions assembled a Minsk team, brought members onsite for training, and integrated them into daily Scrum routines with a three‑hour real‑time overlap for coordination. The approach delivered the first TestSuite release on time and on budget, won strong customer feedback, and left Coherent Solutions consultants embedded as part of MTS’s ongoing development staff—ensuring continued on‑schedule, on‑budget releases and agility to respond to changing requirements.
