Ongoing Engineering Support for Balboa Park Online Collaborative

Overview

We support BPOC with their multitude of online projects, including: Drupal + WordPress CMS websites, Laravel applications, cloud hosting, and more. Requests have ranged from troubleshooting Balboa Park kiosk issues and  optimizing application performance to performing security updates and adding new features to existing websites.

Challenges

As with all small businesses (especially non-profits), we have to manage requests, fires, and ensure support of their digital properties while working within our monthly budgets.

Solution

The products are already in place. It is our job to support, optimize, and grow the technologies that have already been developed. We often:

  • Perform regular security updates
  • Optimize existing infrastructure
  • Troubleshoot and solve bugs
  • Implement new features
  • Assist in building product roadmaps
