How FranklinCovey Scaled Its Engineering Team Fast
…and Enhanced Their Distributed Workforce
Scaling Engineering Team Efficiently for Strategic Growth
FranklinCovey aimed to scale its engineering team rapidly to meet growing demands. The challenge was twofold:
Expedite the Hiring Process: Shorten time-to-fill time significantly.
Seamless Integration: Ensure smooth integration of new team members, despite geographical differences.
Ubiminds' Strategic Solution: Borrow From Its Extensive Experience
Ubiminds brought a larger team of recruiters to the table, shortening the hiring turnaround time by almost two months.
Trusted Partnership: Prior business connections and a reliable leadership team instilled trust and confidence.
Time Zone Advantage: Ubiminds' focus on Americas timezones aligns with FranklinCovey's Salt Lake City headquarters for real-time communication and synchronous collaboration.
With Ubiminders on board, FranklinCovey's project development gained momentum, positively influencing product progression with reliable and predictable delivery.

"We have been distributed for a while. FranklinCovey is in 160 countries, which compels us to build an organization that reflects our customers. I picked Ubiminds because I have done business with them in the past and I trust them to focus on my success.
Cultural integration has also been easy. There is more difference between myself (mid-forties) and the younger generation of coders, than between in-house devs and Ubiminders of similar age.
I treat Ubiminders like regular employees to the degree to which the US labor laws allow. They go to meetings, are held accountable for hitting dates, and pair up with US team members.
They have worked on Customer-Facing tickets, Localization, and engineering infrastructure. Also, they have worked in a number of areas of the application and get work done very reliably and predictably."
