Case Study: FactoryFix drives engineering transparency and faster delivery with Swarmia

How FactoryFix drives alignment and engineering productivity improvements with Swarmia

FactoryFix, the leading manufacturing recruitment platform, wanted better visibility into engineering progress, clearer alignment with the rest of the business, and a faster way to spot blockers and delivery risks. The fully remote engineering team was looking for a tool that could turn development work into metrics leadership could understand, especially as they moved from Shortcut to Linear and adopted the Shape Up methodology.

FactoryFix chose Swarmia to provide historical engineering metrics, Slack digests, and work log visibility for both teams and leadership. With Swarmia, they measured a 25% drop in pull request cycle time and a 9% increase in review rate in the first 90 days, while also replacing daily stand-ups with Slack recaps and improving transparency and delivery predictability.
