Case Study: Buildium increases engineering utilization by 24% with Jellyfish

Buildium increases engineering utilization 24% by aligning engineering with strategic business objectives

Buildium, a property management software company, was scaling quickly and needed a better way to measure engineering performance and align its teams’ work with strategic business objectives. As its R&D organization grew, manual reporting and unclear work categorization made it difficult to know whether engineering resources were focused on the highest-priority initiatives.

Buildium implemented Jellyfish and its Allocation Framework to connect day-to-day engineering operations to strategic metrics. With Jellyfish, the company confirmed miscategorized work, uncovered hidden low-priority work, and within three months increased engineering resources allocated to roadmap work by 24% without hiring. Buildium also improved release management, raised overall velocity by 100 points, and strengthened executive alignment around engineering value.
