Smarter building for speed and scale.
Problem
Education New Zealand had an ambitious roadmap of digital products – from scholarship platforms to industry tools and storytelling sites. Each new project needed to be developed quickly while maintaining brand consistency and technical stability. Traditional development approaches were too slow and resource-intensive to meet their pace of innovation.
Solution
We created a comprehensive digital toolkit built for speed and scale. At its heart: a custom UI component library and tailored Contentful components that work together seamlessly. Using AWS for infrastructure and React.js for the front end, we ensured every new project had a solid foundation. Algolia powers search across all platforms, helping international students find relevant information quickly.
Results
The toolkit transformed how Education New Zealand launches digital products. New websites and microsites can now be built and deployed in days, ensuring ENZ can respond quickly to market needs. The component library ensures consistent branding and user experience across all digital properties, while the technical architecture allows each service to scale independently as needed.
