Case Study: Accelerating Map Feature Delivery for a UK-Based Travel Client

Challenge

A UK-based travel company faced repeated delays in developing map-related features. Despite continued efforts, progress was slow, affecting the product timeline and overall delivery speed.

Solution

Our analysis identified technical debt in the map component as the primary bottleneck. To address this while balancing product priorities, we:

• Identified technical debt that directly impacted the map component’s performance and delivery speed.

• Led a refactoring initiative that resolved 80% of critical technical debt, removing key obstacles to development.

• Dedicated one day per week exclusively to fixing critical technical debt.

• Streamlined development to ensure steady feature progress without disrupting other critical work

Impact

• Faster delivery of map-related features

• Reduced recurring delays by systematically addressing technical debt

• Improved system stability, ensuring smoother development and long-term scalability
