Project Summary

Sloboda Studio developed a Ruby on Rails web platform for a catering concierge service, handling frontend development and UX/UI design. Their work notably improved the platform’s user experience and operational efficiency, completing in months what a previous vendor took over a year to deliver. The engagement began in December 2018 and remains ongoing.

Key Challenges

Take over and continue development started by a previous vendor
Improve operational processes and automation for catering orders
Deliver an equal or better customer experience than established third‑party applications
Cannot launch a minimal viable product due to customers' expectations and existing workflows

Project Deliverables

Web platform (Ruby on Rails)

UX/UI design

Project Solution

The vendor rebuilt the client's web platform using Ruby on Rails and delivered frontend development and UX/UI design. They evaluated the existing system with senior staff, then staffed the work with a project manager, frontend developer, backend developer, and a full‑stack contributor. The team executed iterative grouped projects and provided consistent project management and handoffs; the engagement began in December 2018 and continues.

Project Outcome

Sloboda Studio completed in four to five months work that had taken the previous vendor over a year
Substantially improved the platform's UX
Created operational efficiencies that saved time and money (tasks reduced from about an hour to five minutes)
Consistent project management and seamless developer handoffs
