Case Study: Kainga Ora achieves 10X faster delivery and reduced outages with Flexagon's FlexDeploy

New Zealand's Kainga Ora Gains Speed, Control, Flexibility and More with FlexDeploy

Kainga Ora, the New Zealand government agency that provides rental housing and community support, struggled with a manual, scripted delivery process across systems such as Oracle E-Business Suite and SOA OSB. Deployments required email requests, DBAs to “babysit” jobs, and extensive coordination with little transparency, which slowed delivery, reduced job satisfaction, and increased risk. Kainga Ora selected Flexagon’s FlexDeploy to modernize and automate their software delivery lifecycle.

Flexagon implemented FlexDeploy with integrations for EBS, SOA OSB and Jira to automate builds, deployments, approvals and rolling restarts while providing real-time dashboards and logs. The result: a 10X improvement in delivery speed, emergency fix time cut from about two days to 4.5 hours (2 hours excluding approval wait), reduced outage windows and weekend work, better transparency and control, and higher team confidence—making Flexagon’s FlexDeploy the core tool for Kainga Ora’s release processes.
