Where does the integration run?

We can deploy in your SaaS (e.g., Workato/Zapier/Make), a CTM-managed middleware, your cloud, or a hybrid—based on data, security, and budget needs.

How long does it take?

Typical pilots run 6–8 weeks: discovery, build, test, and handoff. Timelines vary with vendor access and mapping complexity.

Credentials are stored securely; we use least-privilege access, encrypted transit/storage, and vendor-recommended auth (API keys/OAuth).

Do you provide support and SLAs?

Yes—see Engagements for support/SLAs options. We offer advisory retainers, project support, or fractional leadership.

Custom ATS/HCM Integrations

Prebuilt connectors rarely fit. Big firms are overkill. Your team is at capacity. We deliver outcome‑driven integrations that actually match your workflow.

Discovery & Mapping

Current system audit and data flow analysis
Stakeholder interviews and requirements
Architecture and feasibility

Integration Development

API connections or flat‑file transfers
Transformations, validation, retries
Real‑time or scheduled sync

Testing & Go‑Live

Sandbox runs and UAT
Production deployment and monitoring
Team training and documentation

The Problem

Prebuilts Don’t Fit

Edge cases and field mappings are unique. Generic connectors break or miss context.

Overkill Engagements

Large vendors sell enterprise programs when all you need is a focused build.

Team Bandwidth

Your team is busy. We handle the build, testing, and handoff end‑to‑end.

CTM Solution

Custom Builds

Designed around your ATS, HCM, and process—not a one‑size‑fits‑all connector.

Boutique Scale

Senior delivery with direct access. No bench‑swapping or handoffs.

Cost‑Effective

Clear scope and rapid pilot to prove value before expanding.

Engagement Models

1. Advisory

Executive-level insight without full-time costs
Regular strategy sessions (monthly/quarterly)
Vendor selection, system checks, tech roadmaps

Best for: Clarifying direction or validating approach.

2. Consulting

Project delivery for integrations and migrations
Testing, training, documentation
Technical PM and vendor coordination

Best for: Solving specific integration pain points.

3. Fractional Leadership

Ongoing VP/CTO-style ownership
Strategy plus delivery oversight
Backlog shaping and outcomes reviews

Best for: Senior leadership without a full-time hire.

How It Works (6–8 Weeks)

Kickoff & Discovery

Access, mappings, success criteria, and architecture plan.

Build

API/auth setup, transformations, error handling, logging.

W3–4

Test

Sandbox runs, UAT, refinements, and docs.

W5–6

Go‑Live & Handoff

Prod deploy, monitoring, training, and support plan.

Hosting & Platform Options

Client SaaS

We can build using tools your team already knows (Workato, Zapier, Make). Fast to launch with vendor support.

CTM‑Managed Middleware

We host the integration layer for you with logging, alerting, and uptime monitoring built‑in.

Your Cloud or Hybrid

Deploy in your AWS/Azure/GCP with CI/CD and secrets management, or mix approaches for the best fit.
