Case Study: Leading Global Mining Group scales its technology teams with Endava

Empowering the Growth of Technology Teams with a Framework of Best Practices

Leading Global Mining Group, a leading global mining company, partnered with Endava to strengthen its in-house software development capability and support its digital acceleration journey. The challenge was to create a framework of best practices that could scale an internal software team to more than 600 people while improving responsiveness, data-driven decision-making, and delivery across the business.

Endava implemented a framework built on agile principles, scaled agile practices, Design Thinking, and DevOps, alongside people development, recruitment, graduate, mentorship, and leadership initiatives. As a result, the technology team grew to 200+ in two years and was projected to reach 380+ by year-end, with 15 teams delivering 13 products; the company also reported <5% attrition, reduced Idea-to-Value time, lower TCO, and a CMMI score of 4.1.
