Case Study: Becoming Bacardi achieves streamlined, multilingual employee onboarding with Kentico

Becoming Bacardi - Customer Case Study

Becoming Bacardi is an internal onboarding site for Bacardi Corporation that needed modernization: the original application was 100% Flash, English-only, and driven by hard-to-edit XML files. With a small budget and a tight timeline, Blue Modus was asked to preserve the existing data structure while delivering a globally usable, easy-to-maintain solution that supported 14 languages and non-technical content editors.

Blue Modus rebuilt the site on Kentico, using the content tree and provider for bulk import, rendering legacy XML via transformations, and adding a REST API for Flash-based progress tracking plus an AD validation proxy, reporting tools, and per-language editing permissions for translators. The four-person team completed the project in 425 hours; the relaunched site reduced maintenance complexity, enabled multilingual management by non-technical staff, won industry recognition, and prompted Bacardi HR to explore additional features and mobile support.
