A lot of work to do
The calls keep coming. The requests for their online ordering solutions are piling up. Points of contact multiplied. While UEAT already relied on the expertise of a formidable technology team, it now needed a solid partner to help turn around a weakened industry.
Not only was UEAT looking for a partner who could support it in rapidly scaling up its platform, it was also looking for partners who could integrate quickly and efficiently into its team. Ingeno's technological and business expertise helped stabilize the company, while supporting hundreds of restaurateurs and their tens of thousands of customers.

A difference worth savouring
When you’re growing by 450% in a single year, it’s important to surround yourself with partners who know how to spot the blind spots that threaten your organization. UEAT President and CEO Martin Lafrance knew he had found the partner he needed: “What sets Ingeno apart is their expertise in highly specialized fields […] that made all the difference. It enabled us to accelerate our technological development.” — he explains.
Ingeno quickly assessed the current state of affairs in order to identify issues and assign resources to the most pressing problems. After drawing up a portrait of the company’s environment, its challenges and the inconsistencies to be corrected, a detailed and realistic game plan was devised by Ingeno.
The work didn’t stop there. Both teams worked on its execution, ensuring knowledge transfer throughout the process. Ingeno’s VP of Professional Services, Jason Pierre Sweeney, recalls the assignment as “a shining example of sustained collaboration during an extremely critical period.”
“What sets Ingeno apart is their expertise in very specialized fields [...] it made all the difference. It enabled us to accelerate our technological development.”
