Using Liberty Create to build full-stack apps is between 3-10 times faster than traditional development. It has a drag-and-drop interface so it’s easy to handle data and workflow processes to build apps that deliver great user experience.
Starting by developing the platform in a Create Innovation Lab, the ITV team could do small-scale experimentation with process design. In two days, they had built a fully functional prototype. The final product was built within weeks, without having spent months waiting in the IT queue.
It’s easier to develop new applications, so more people can build applications. After their training, ITV’s pool of developers was instantly bigger. Without the need for coding knowledge, business users and IT could collaborate to tackle ITV’s needs to rapidly innovate using low-code.
With Liberty Create, departments are now largely self-sufficient and able to make changes to their process management systems without being reliant on IT or outside developers. Traditional IT resources can be utilised in more complex business areas. The process owners are actively involved in the operational excellence of their departments.
Using Liberty Create has proved to be a successful part of the drive for operational excellence. The process owners can keep improving their systems in a low-cost, low-risk environment.
They can use it for all sorts of projects. To address functionality gaps between existing systems. The powerful integration capabilities means that their applications are not built in functional silos – instead, they’re joined up to provide the reach and scale that ITV need.
ITV’s initial low-code project was created by the Interactive Team, handling viewer competitions and coordinates voting for reality shows such as ‘The X Factor’. After their training in Liberty Create, the team had the skills to develop a workflow and bespoke forms system.
The team built a single platform, allowing for a holistic view of the status of a campaign.
Then, Create was used in the Broadcast Distribution Team to involve their operational users with improving their own technology, without relying on central IT resources.
Starting by developing the platform in a Create Innovation Lab, the team began small-scale experimentation with process design. In two days, they had built a fully functional prototype.
Next, the Duty Manager’s Office platform, which must alert the rest of the network when an incident occurs on air (for example, the broadcast cutting out) and coordinate a solution. Using Create, the team developed a standardised, single platform for incident management, to automatically send text and email alerts within 10 seconds of an incident report.
