Case Study: IE University achieves faster multi-site publishing with Secuoyas Griddo

IE University cuts time to market from 2 years per school to 1 year with Secuoyas

IE University, a leading educational organization with seven major schools, faced a challenge in managing its demanding online publishing needs. The university required a flexible solution to handle constant communication support for dozens of different programs, including minisites and events, while maintaining high quality and effective online communication. To address this, they partnered with vendor Secuoyas to develop a publishing product.

Secuoyas implemented Griddo, a unified publishing system built on a modular framework. The solution involved creating a style guide, consolidating the development team, and establishing a collaborative business structure using the Kanban agile philosophy. This resulted in a measurable impact: IE's marketing department reduced its time to market from an average of two years of development per business school to publishing all schools in a single year. The system now supports 45 sites with over 100 different modules, enabling organic growth for each school.
