From chaos to community:

An organization that outgrew its infrastructure.
After serving over 1 million family members across 200 locations in 43 states, a premier national non-profit dedicated to ending family homelessness had outgrown its own systems. Real-time reporting across multi-state operations was nearly impossible, everyday use triggered system crashes, and the data pipelines holding everything together were buckling under the weight of their own growth.
They didn't need a patch. They needed an enterprise-grade rebuild — and the technical leadership to run it.
Turn an unstable prototype into a platform a national organization can run on.
Leadership Gap
The internal team lacked the capacity for hands-on product management and engineering direction.
System Lag
Heavy data workflows ran inside the field-facing apps, and everyday use triggered crashes.
Broken Reporting
Pulling real-time reports across multi-state operations was nearly impossible.
Manual Busywork
Historical auditing meant manual data entry, and staff hours lost to it.
A national platform, not a bigger prototype.
QREW Tech stepped in as fractional technical leadership. The result was a customAppSheet ecosystem integrated with Google Cloud SQL and BigQuery — an unstable prototype turned into a scalable national platform.
The field-facing apps stay fast because the heavy lifting moved to the backend. Leadership gets real-time reports because the pipelines underneath were re-architected.
- Leadership · hands-on product management and engineering direction the internal team didn't have capacity for.
- Performance · heavy data workflows moved to backend logic, keeping field apps fast and responsive — with a targeted 30% improvement in response times.
- Reporting · data pipelines re-architected so executives can pull real-time reports without crashes.
- Automation · backend automation for historical auditing, reclaiming hours of staff time lost to manual data entry.
