Case Study: Learn how this non-profits meets development challenges…without developers

Picture this: You’re running an IT department, and everyone’s asking for custom applications. The catch? You don’t have a single programmer on your team. What do you do?

Well, that’s exactly what Lifeskills, a Kentucky-based non-profit, was dealing with. But instead of pulling their hair out, they found a secret weapon: The m-Power Development Platform.

So, what happened?

  • They started churning out custom web apps like it was nothing
  • The IT team basically turned into app-development wizards overnight
  • They began using m-Power to improve their other software packages

Jenny Culver, the CIO at Lifeskills, puts it this way: “Without m-Power, we’d be in a totally different boat. We’d either be outsourcing everything or scrambling to hire a pricey programmer.”

Want to know how they pulled off this IT magic trick? There’s more to this story:

  • The challenges they were up against
  • How this m-Power thing actually works (it’s pretty cool)
  • The kinds of apps they’re building now
  • Some surprising perks they never saw coming
