OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenges were you trying to address with Ehecatl?

When I joined my firm, I inherited an app that had been previously created by other consultants. The app had many issues and bugs so when I received it, I decided not to continue with the same consultancy firm. My challenge was finding a new consultancy that could resolve the app’s bugs.

The app provides services for my firm’s other locations throughout the country. App users can view the step-by-step processing timeline for their container shipments. They can see if their container has arrived at the port, if it’s been unloaded, if it’s in transit, etc.

How did you come to work with Ehecatl?

When I started looking for firms, I was mainly searching in Mexico City because although they’re expensive, there are several there. Then, I started looking nearby because I thought we had some good local talent available.

During this time, I remembered I had met Ehecatl at a local technology event so I contacted them. They were very flexible in adapting to our needs, and we immediately started working on the app.

How much have you invested in them?

We’ve invested $400,000.

We currently have more than 10,000 users on the app and 30,000 consultations a day. It’s a niche-oriented app so that explains the big number. As for Ehecatl’s work, I’m very happy with them. We have an internal evaluation system in the company for all of our suppliers, and they’ve always received a high score. Thanks to them, the app went from being chaotic to completely stable.

How did Ehecalt perform from a project management standpoint?

Project management was great. I know their team may have a different project management style, but they were extremely flexible in adapting to ours. They were always proactive about suggesting new ideas.
