Split, Croatia, 16th of November 2021, – we are proud to announce that Agilno successfully verified as a Pangea vendor. This means that we have joined an elite community of the top 7% of software engineering vendors. This will enable us to provide unparalleled transparency about our organization through our Pangea profile for both current and future allies.
The path to join an elite vendor community
Since 2016, we have been thinking beyond geographical borders to bring passionate engineers, designers, product owners, thinkers and innovators together to create amazing experiences and digital products that have a profound impact on users all around the world.
In doing this, we always strived to be transparent about our business and operations, giving our allies the trust and expertise they need to embark with us on the wonderful but challenging journey of building digital products that produce results.
We have long thought about how we can reduce the quality uncertainty and asymmetric information for current and future allies. Having gone through the independent verification process at Pangea, we can now do just that with our verified Pangea profile.
To shed some light on the verification process, we started with an organisational mapping where we deep-dived on topics such as business strategy, culture, technology, recruitment & HR, project metrics and more. This formed the foundation of our company.
In the second part, we gained insights from our team members to measure team health. To verify the client experience at Agilno, 5 of our clients contributed with their insights. Additionally, we documented core internal processes that will be accessible to any prospective ally of Agilno with one click through our data room at Pangea.
Going through a rigorous verification process taught us a lot about our own company. We detected blindspots and identified strengths we were unaware of. More than joining an elite community, it allowed us to sync on topics that we were unable to prioritize in the day-to-day hustle and buzz that will improve our internal efficiency and alignment.
Key findings and learnings
What we found the most interesting was the team health metrics as it was the sentiment shared by our team members. Our team health score is 8.2/10.0 where our highest scores were 8.9/10.0 for satisfaction and 8.5 for feedback and recognition.
As a company that always strives to be better, we were thrilled to see that our team is satisfied at Agilno and that the bond and rapport between the coworkers are strong. However, we also saw that we could do better in areas of advocacy and personal growth.
On that note, we will focus on improving access to personal development, mentorship opportunities, format for knowledge sharing internally, the frequency of 1-on-1, the way we recognize great work and more.
“We believe that taking care of our people and putting them in the first place plays a tremendous role in how we conduct our business and grow as a company” – Karla Goles, Head of People at Agilno.
It goes without saying that we are eager to understand what our clients say about us. From the client insights derived by Pangea, our client score is 8.2/10. While this is a testament to our team and the hard work and dedication we show our clients, we know we can do better and we are always striving to go for it.
Over the last five years, we have focused on building up a rockstar product development teams and our current focus is on scaling. We started by building cross functional teams that can handle anything from project discovery phase to the launch of the product.
Continuous improvement and excellence
Being part of the elite 7% of vendors is a great milestone enabling full transparency for any prospect about the status quo, but only the beginning of a continuous journey. Therefore, we anticipate investing further into employee development, technology and processes to provide the best version of ourselves our team and clients.
Our progress will be documented on our verified Pangea profile which we hope will support our growth and success as a company. Success for us means attracting the best talent, working with clients who are a cultural fit and help them achieve their respective product and business goals.
To achieve that and maintain and improve the Pangea scores over the years to come, we will dedicate ourselves to constant improvement and development. Overall, this goal will ensure that we have the right processes and systems in place to foster a great working culture that translates to happy customers.
