Transforming a leading travel add-on company to new heights

Overview

Holiday Extras, a prominent player in the UK travel add-on sector, faced the dynamic challenges of a rapidly expanding operation with an intricate structure. Boasting 8,000 travel agents and 4,000 exclusive partnerships, their vision was to simplify travel for global customers.

However, with an increasing customer base and real-time transactions, it was crucially important for the company to provide a highly efficient website to customers. However, the increased attrition rate of in-house designers and the high costs of hiring took a lot of work for the HX team.

Challenges

Managing over 1000 repositories with precision.
Coordinating dependencies across multiple stakeholders for seamless web and mobile application integration.
High turnover of in-house designers and the associated hiring costs
