I was impressed with Simplexity’s agility and speed in addressing my project’s needs. When we realized that we needed a specific skill (embedded FW), Simplexity nimbly staffed a great engineer to fill the void. And when it came to design and follow-through, Simplexity’s project team did a great job navigating the chaotic combination of stakeholders to deliver results on schedule.
