In this episode of Bluegrass Unfiltered, Alex Hovy talks about his experience working day-to-day within the F. Engel team while remaining part of Bluegrass Digital. For clients, that model offers the best of both worlds: dedicated expertise embedded within your team, with an ongoing connection to the broader knowledge, experience and resources of Bluegrass. Alex describes it as a “symbiotic relationship” and that’s a useful way to think about staff augmentation. It’s not simply about filling a resource gap. It’s about adding capability to your team in a way that encourages knowledge sharing, collaboration and growth on both sides. 🎥 Hear Alex’s perspective in the clip. #StaffAugmentation #DigitalTeams #TechTalent #DigitalDelivery #BluegrassUnfiltered

What makes an app genuinely good? And what makes users want to delete it five minutes later? In this Bluegrass 𝗨𝗻𝗳𝗶𝗹𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗱 episode, Matthew Edwards Edwards and Dawie Pritchard unpack what separates an app that genuinely works for its users from one that simply works. They get into: • Why more features don’t necessarily mean a better app • The small moments of friction users notice • Why you shouldn’t try to build everything at once • And what it takes to keep an app useful long after launch Watch the full episode: https://lnkd.in/dZgNM-FD

Is headless and composable the future of digital experience? There are real benefits to going headless and composable. More flexibility. More freedom to choose the right technology. More ways to reuse content. But composable doesn’t remove complexity. It redistributes it. In Bluegrass Unfiltered, Alex Hovy shares his take on where headless and composable architecture makes sense, and where it might be overkill.

“Full parity.” Sounds safe. Usually isn’t. In our webinar, Simon Buerger talks about why organisations get stuck trying to make a new platform behave exactly like the old one, and how that mindset can add cost, delays, and unnecessary complexity. A replatform should solve problems. Not preserve them. Full webinar dropping soon.

"If you try and build an all-in-one solution, you'll be developing for years." It’s a simple point, but one many organisations still get wrong. The pressure to deliver every feature, every integration and every future requirement can slow a project down before it even launches. In this Bluegrass 𝗨𝗻𝗳𝗶𝗹𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗱 clip, Matthew Edwards Head of Product, shares why focusing on the most important customer need first is often the fastest path to value. Don’t build everything. Build what matters first.
