Case Study: a natural gas transportation company increases revenue and stays compliant with Sparq's app modernization

App Modernization Helps Natural Gas Transportation Company Stay Compliant and Increase Revenue

The natural gas transportation company faced a critical challenge when an upcoming regulatory change threatened to shut down its outdated, on-premise operations. To stay compliant and avoid losing business to competitors, the company engaged Sparq for a modernization effort that included cloud migration and the adoption of a DevOps culture.

Sparq implemented a multi-faceted solution, modernizing the application's legacy tech stack to a web-based Blazor front-end and embedding a Scrum-as-a-Service® team to instill Agile frameworks. Database tuning and added indexes reduced query runtimes by 30-40%. This modernization enabled the client to apply calculated rate increases, thereby increasing revenue, and provided quicker access to data for efficient decision-making.
