Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

BluShift has been with Patter from it's origin. They have developed the app, continue to work on adding new features, and provide ongoing maintanence and technical support.

There are too many deliverables to list here, but a few key ones are:

Creating and walking through early stage mock ups and details of suggested UI/UX within app
Launching Go Patter Website ahead of schedule
Launching our app on Google Play and Apple app stores.
Creating a secondary detailed website in under two weeks with very short notice

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

The project is ongoing. Current metrics we look at are app usage, user engagement, certain in-app activity #'s, and tech error rates (very low!)

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

BluShift delivers items on time and often ahead of schedule. The team is proactive, and does not need to be reminded of tasks they have to get done.

What was your primary form of communication with BluShift Consulting?

Virtual Meeting
Email or Messaging App

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

Their flexibility and willingness to adapt based on situations.

Also their responsiveness to small requests. With past developers, if we had a small request for a change or update, the task would be put into a queau and would need to be mapped out and other tasks reorganized based on hours. With BluShift, if we request a simple change they just go in, do it immediately and let us know when it is done! Very helpful for a new business that's still tinkering with what works best.

Another thing I appreciate about BluShift is their people. They are kind and sociable people that put pride into their work!

Are there any areas for improvement or something BluShift Consulting could have done differently?

As of now we have not run into any issues with BluShift. They have been great to work with.

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

The goal of this project is to leverage the existing Zama Health app to produce the “Zama Health Integration App” (ZHIA). ZHIA should be provided as an embeddable mobile web application with a single sign on experience for users. Additionally the project aims to ensure data synchronicity between 3rd parties and the Zama Health platform with regards to membership statuses, as well as providing usage reporting on 3rd party members.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

This was a zero to one project. We measured success by launching our first partner with the embedded Zama app in their mobile app and seeing their users onboard and use Zama successfully.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

The team at BluShift is well organized, communicative, and responsive. From our initial meeting, they put together a solution design doc and met with us regularly to confirm understanding, adjust to newly discovered challenges and requirements, and provide updates. They meet or beat all our customer driven deadlines as well as their own self-imposed deadlines to keep larger efforts moving forward.

They've put together a great blend of structured project management and humanness in how they interact and execute their work.

What was your primary form of communication with BluShift Consulting?

Virtual Meeting
Email or Messaging App

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

They have a high level of engineering competency mixed with a high level of what I'll label as 'emotional intelligence' that makes them not only highly capable of delivering on their work but also a pleasure to work with, even in the face of changing requirements.

Are there any areas for improvement or something BluShift Consulting could have done differently?

Not for us. We're looking forward to continuing to engage with them moving forward.

Our Story

We started BluShift in 2020 because too many organisations were investing in technology without seeing their work improve. Our belief is simple: start with the outcome, build what is useful, and leave people better equipped to carry it forward. We say it straight, even when a process isn't worth automating. We change a few things at a time and test them with your team. And every process we touch gets a number, usually hours saved, that we check together.

Meet the Team

Sheldon co-founded BluShift and leads its strategy and enterprise accounts. He brings architecture judgement to complex delivery work and focuses on workflow engineering: scoping a process, rebuilding it, then automating it.

Daniel is a partner at BluShift and leads client delivery across the portfolio, from scoping and contracts through to go-live. He keeps client work on track day to day and makes the resourcing and priority calls between accounts.

What Sets Us Apart

We build alongside your team

Your people work with our engineers from discovery through to go-live. They help shape the requirements, test each release and take part in design decisions, so by handover they understand how the system works and can run it without depending on us.

Training and change management are included

Every engagement includes training and change management in the scope and the price. We plan how each team's daily work will change, train the people who will use the new process, and stay involved after launch until the new way of working is in regular use.

We work around your current systems

We build automation that connects to the systems you already use, such as your accounting, practice management and document platforms. You keep the tools your staff know and the data you already hold, and you avoid the cost and disruption of a replacement project.

Commonly Asked Questions

At kickoff we agree the communication channels, the reporting structure and who owns each role, so your team knows who to contact and when updates will arrive. Each engagement has a named BluShift owner who is accountable for delivery. At the end of every sprint we present a status review covering the work completed, hours used against budget, open blockers and risks, and the plan for the next sprint. We raise risks as soon as we see them rather than when they become problems, and each one comes with options, a recommendation and a named owner for the next step.

Most of our projects take between 2 and 15 weeks. A single automation, such as a document matching or system integration, usually takes 2 to 3 weeks. Pilots and proofs of concept, where we test an AI or automation approach on your own data before a wider rollout, take 6 to 8 weeks. Full builds take 8 to 15 weeks, depending on the number of systems involved. We also offer ongoing support and improvement on 3-month terms. Every timeline assumes your team reviews our work within 3 business days, which is how we keep projects on schedule.
