Transforming software development with GitHub Copilot and CleverIT

Our client is an airline with a presence in the Americas, whose development team needed Getting more out of GitHub Copilot Business. Some time ago they had purchased licenses for this solution, but without relevant results that would justify its use among developers and teams that participate in the software development lifecycle in general.

Customer-tailored adoption program

As a prominent GitHub partner in LATAM, we have a adoption program for GitHub Copilot, which seeks to learn fluently how to use this tool. This was the solution proposed to the customer, but in a version adapted to the needs of their team. We worked with 50 people, with whom we carried out evaluations at the beginning and end of the program to measure learning, in addition to practical and theoretical training sessions.

All this accompanied by Groowcity and Performance Dashboard, two key tools designed by CleverIt for measuring learning in technological teams, and monitoring metrics for the use of new tools, such as GitHub Copilot in this success story.

With the implementation of the adoption program, we could not only show results of using the tool, but also see how AI can directly impact the teams that are part of the software lifecycle.

A clever co-pilot for the team

Our GitHub Copilot adoption program was exceptionally executed in just two months, overcoming different challenges thanks to the collaboration between CleverIt and the customer. The results speak for themselves:

• Sustained use of the tool: 31% of GitHub Copilot suggestions are accepted by the team
• Added Value: Our Performance Dashboard generated a positive impact on the customer, who see the product as an opportunity for future improvement.
• Key Alliance with Microsoft: As a solution partner, we successfully installed the Performance Dashboard with Azure services, to appreciate the metrics of GitHub Copilot but also real development metrics, such as development speed, contributions per team, speed of deployment and development cycle, among others.
• Better use of the assistant: We activated 50 accounts that were available and that, without the adoption program, their use would be between 10% and 15%. We thus ensure that program participants use GitHub Copilot.

Thanks to this collaboration, our customer managed to maximize the value of GitHub Copilot Business and transform the way its teams develop software. This success story reflects the power of combining advanced tools, an adoption program and CleverIT expertise to overcome technological challenges and optimize results.
