Case Study: British Columbia Ministry of Transportation and Transit achieves resilient, self-sufficient DriveBC modernization with OXD

British Columbia Ministry of Transportation and Transit handles 100x traffic spikes with zero failures using OXD

The British Columbia Ministry of Transportation and Transit faced the challenge of modernizing its critical but fragile DriveBC.ca platform, a legacy system that was prone to failure during extreme weather events. A small internal team with low morale was maintaining the complex site, which relied on data from multiple external partners, and the mandate was to modernize without disrupting day-to-day operations or breaking existing integrations.

OXD joined the Ministry's staff to form a single, integrated team that worked collaboratively for over two years. This partnership focused on building organizational capability and a resilient new platform using Agile methods and a new CMS. The solution delivered a 100 times increase in load capacity during critical events with zero service failures and empowered a now self-sufficient team that can maintain and evolve the service independently.
