Our contribution to REED

What We Did

The REED site has been developed continually since initial launch but needed to evolve new business models to keep pace with the new market entrants, as well as deliver services to customers through all delivery channels.

Elemental Concept provided  expert technical architecture consultancy services to lay the new foundations to build new offerings and to use new technologies to understand and efficiently find and service customers.

Our experts found that root and branch re-design and development of all major customer facing systems was required. By identifying effective newer technologies, such as AI/Machine Learning and Predictive Analysis, Reed will be able to better target new customers, automate the process of matching roles with candidates more efficiently and support the new business models needed to compete against new entrants with no legacy systems to manage.

In addition, EC worked on the implementation of a new API gateway, based on the KONG Enterprise API Gateway platform.
