Case Study: TerraQuest achieves agile cloud transformation with Synetec

TerraQuest manages 90% of planning applications with Synetec

TerraQuest, the provider responsible for running the National Planning Portal for England and Wales, faced a significant challenge in transforming its software development approach. With a conventional waterfall methodology, they sought to become more efficient, transition to agile scrum, move their infrastructure to the cloud, and rapidly grow their technology team. To achieve this ambitious business transformation, they partnered with vendor Synetec for a bespoke software development engagement.

Synetec embedded its consultants, including a full-time Solution Architect, directly into the TerraQuest team for nearly two years. This partnership helped design and implement Agile principles and DevOps processes, which facilitated the cloud migration and the onboarding of new staff. As a result of Synetec's solution, TerraQuest successfully delivered its new technology platform, moved its entire infrastructure to the cloud, and established engaged Scrum teams capable of facilitating future innovation at speed.
