Overview
Our relationship with Iridium began when Sean Abel was managing Moveable Online. Due to the firms focus on telecom (Bell Canada, Telus, Bridgewater Systems) we received the Iridium.com RFP. After writing the RFP, presenting and being awarded the project, he managed the development team to deliver Iridium.com and Iridium for Partners (IFP). Over the years Mr. Abel continued to work in a strategy role along with Banfield Agency. In 2014, Apercu was contracted directly to operate in a product management role to relaunch Iridium.com. In 2015 Iridium approached Moveable Online to develop a Service Advisory Dashboard for partners and stakeholders to monitor various network services. Moveable Online contracted Apercu Consulting for the Business Requirements Document and UX design.
"Iridium.com is beautiful. And it couldn't have been done without both the teams at Moveable and BSL. While we know this is just the first step in many over the coming months it is an extremely impactful step and shows the talent on both of your teams. The amount of effort and heart that has gone into this initiative thus far is untouchable, and I couldn't have asked for a better team of people to work with. " - Julia Wilton
