"Stellar marked a turning point for us. In just a few days a month, they made up for the absence of a Head of Product and the lack of senior leadership on our team. They transformed our strategy and completely overhauled our processes. In six months, my employees are more engaged than ever, my customers are converting under our new model, and our users are seeing new features released every month."

Challenge

From problem to solution: How Tennders overcame its challenges

Tennders aced a number of challenges that hampered its growth and development. Here's how Stellar helped them overcome these obstacles to accelerate their growth and achieve their goals.

#1 Vision and Product Strategy blurred

Lack of clarity on Product vision and strategy leads to deviant product decisions, and slower decision-making across all teams.

Redefining product strategy

Stellar helped Tennders completely rewrite their product strategy: change of KPI, clarification of positioning, prioritization of development choices.

#2 Product complexity

Tennders' product was overloaded and complex for the user. It was also difficult for teams to maintain.

Product simplification

Following the Stellar audit, decision rules were introduced. These have made it possible to eliminate little-used functions and simplify usage.

#3 Development delays

Tennders' managers lacked visibility of the Tech & Product team's performance and were regularly experiencing development delays.

Reorganization of product processes

A "Product Board" has been created with Business & Tech representatives to reinforce product leadership. This decision speeds up information sharing and neutralizes the lack of visibility.
