Apply Digital Selects Agileday as Their Future Operating Platform to Support Rapid Global Growth

We’re excited to share that Apply Digital, a Vancouver headquartered global leader in digital transformation and one of the world’s fastest-growing digital services companies, has chosen Agileday to support their international operations. With 700+ full-time employees and rapid growth, Apply Digital needed a solution that could scale with them. After evaluating over 20 vendors, including well-known US enterprise solutions, Apply Digital ultimately selected Agileday as the best fit for their high-growth, collaborative, and data-driven approach.

‍Rethinking What’s Possible

Initially, Apply Digital’s search focused on traditional Project Portfolio Management (PPM) and Professional Services Automation (PSA) software to help scale their operations, replacing their homegrown systems and unlocking new capabilities. They needed a platform to support project pipeline management, resourcing, budgeting, skills and certification tracking, historical employee allocations, intelligent casting, and more. But once they saw Agileday in action, they realized they needed something beyond traditional solutions—one that doesn’t just track work but empowers teams with real-time clarity and actionable insights.

As Wilfried Hanachowicz, Head of Project Management at Apply Digital, put it:

"We started this process looking for a tool to accelerate our growth, but Agileday showed us a completely new way to scale—without losing agility or creating layers of red tape. Their ability to rapidly iterate based on our feedback reinforced our confidence that this was the right platform for us."

Why Apply Digital Chose Agileday

Beyond its modern capabilities, Apply Digital chose Agileday because they saw a shared mindset—a commitment to scalable, people-first operations. Unlike traditional solutions that enforce rigid, top-down processes, Agileday supports:

  • Agility over bureaucracy – Staying lean while expanding globally
  • Transparent, people-first operations – Empowering employees with visibility and intelligent decision-making
  • A responsive product team – Iterating on Apply Digital’s feedback and evolving alongside their needs
"From the very first trial, Agileday proved they were committed to being more than just a software provider—they were a true partner," said Wilfried.

"Their ability to incorporate our feedback in near real time, adapt the platform, and collaborate on features gave us confidence that we could scale with them long-term."

A Major Milestone for Agileday

Agileday’s Co-Founder and Co-CEO, Jaakko Hartikainen, added:

“This partnership is a defining moment for us, it marks Agileday’s expansion into the North American market with one of the most forward-thinking digital agencies. Apply Digital understands that agility, transparency, and empowering people are key to sustainable growth. We’re excited to support their journey and help other digital agencies achieve the same operational excellence.”

What’s Next?

Apply Digital is rolling out Agileday across its global teams, and we’re working together on new features that will further enhance their multinational operations.
