Case Study: Solid Software achieves elite delivery performance with Haystack Analytics

Solid Software cuts cycle time 89% with Haystack Analytics

Solid Software, a developer of Flutter applications, faced the challenge of scaling their team and improving their software delivery process after being selected as an early Flutter adopter by Google. With no clear data on what processes worked, they struggled to identify effective changes and needed to move beyond relying on gut feelings. To overcome this, they partnered with Haystack Analytics to gain clear insights into their team's performance.

Haystack Analytics provided the data and insights needed to measure the impact of over 13 different process experiments. By using Haystack, Solid Software introduced changes like limiting pull request sizes, implementing code reviews, and automating manual tasks. The results were substantial: a 455% increase in throughput, an 89% faster cycle time, and a remarkably low 0.48% change fail rate, setting the team on a path of continuous improvement and elite performance.
