A mission-critical migration in a 36-hour window, delivered on time
Proxymity, the leading digital investor communications platform serving tier-1 global banks, needed delivery confidence on an ambitious programme. Barrington expedited a critical data migration and key product development to a predetermined deadline, and helped implement a scrum-based SDLC to make delivery more predictable.
36-hour window
Mission-critical data migration, delivered on time
The challenge
Proxymity had embarked on an ambitious programme and needed external expertise to bolster delivery confidence and remove the risk of missing the launch timetable — the rollout of services into new territories depended on it.
What we did
We combined structured programme control with agile delivery, and coached the team throughout.
- Assessed scope and measured past velocity to set realistic timelines.
- Coached the existing team, increasing sprint velocity, and onboarded additional members.
- Maintained burndown tracking, status reporting and a live risk and issue log.
- Planned and monitored the data migration through its 36-hour weekend implementation window.
- Facilitated scrum events, prepared user stories and maintained the product backlog.
The outcome
The migration and strategic product development completed on schedule, with high accuracy and data integrity — enabling rollout into new territories. Delivery timelines became more predictable, and the team kept the agile capability after the engagement.
Barrington combined a wealth of software project delivery experience and techniques with a result-orientated and can-do attitude to the project. This helped the team focus on what they do best – develop mission critical software whilst Barrington steered the project to deliver against the desired timeline.
