One of the best ways to grasp a complex topic like platform engineering is through real-world case studies of the far-reaching changes it can effect in your organization. Our Head of Technology, Ian Steyaert, breaks down a couple of our best client examples.
United Rentals
After argo helped United Rentals evolve its business strategy to further leverage the emergence of digital tools on job sites worldwide, our Design and Technology teams worked closely with the company’s internal and third-party developers to enable and accelerate these new user experiences. With such a diverse set of stakeholders working across a variety of products and platforms, a system for consistency and efficiency was crucial.
Platform engineering provides an excellent starting point for strengthening relationships across engineering organizations, and extending these new connection pathways allows developers to personalize a system to best meet their needs. By helping plan out flexible, configurable, and scalable systems for key enabling technologies — along with agile project management to help prioritize product timelines — argo helped United Rentals accelerate their timelines, improving customer satisfaction and revenue.
