UPSTACK assists BBoS in building cost-effective services

Summary

Founded in 2004, Bag Borrow or Steal (BBoS) often gets described as the “Netflix for Handbags” since it allows customers to rent high-end bags from Chanel, Chloe, Coach, Fendi, Gucci, and others. With growth and a new infusion of capital, the company had to quickly expand both its offerings and its ability to deliver.

The Approach and Services

UPSTACK provided comprehensive due diligence and evaluations of datacenters, managed hosting companies, and networking vendors. Through an application workshop, UPSTACK evaluated BBoS’ internal capabilities and performed cloud rationalization for key applications.

Services included:

• Application workshops and requirements gathering
• Cloud rationalization
• Due diligence via a market intelligence assessment
• Solutions architecture
• Proposal management

The Outcome

BBoS regained the freedom to focus on building their core business. They gained the
agility of cloud economics and the benefits of access to experts-on-demand. UPSTACK saved the client weeks of vendor and contract evaluation time.

Results included:

• Value that was achieved by gaining greater scale without cost increase
• Designing a superior database support model
• Avoiding the hiring of additional staff
