Driving toward transformation

An online auction site goes from concept to completion in four months

Challenge

As Hemmings' classic car publication evolved from their print roots to online products and services, they partnered with Method to evaluate their needs and build out an online auctions platform.
Solution

Method (formerly Skookum) collaborated with Hemmings to complete extensive research, then build and test a state-of-the-art online auction site in less than four months.

An established leader launches a new platform to propel profits

The results

Hemmings’ online auctions platform has helped the company gain and maintain an edge in an increasingly competitive industry.

To create this online platform, Method began with a discovery phase to understand Hemmings’ needs and evaluate the best solutions. After conducting over 30 stakeholder interviews plus competitive, market, and technology research, our team followed an agile, phase-based approach to develop and test the new auctions platform with the help of real users.

The new, user-validated platform is more robust and secure than anything else on the market — all essential ingredients to protect Hemmings’ valuable inventory. User feedback has been overwhelmingly positive, and Hemmings’ team was thankful for the smooth process and quality work.
