Andrew Haring, VP and General Counsel at Talking Rain Beverage Company
What We Did
- Business Continuity
- Disaster Recovery
- Project Leadership
Case Summary
Talking Rain has grown tremendously over the past year, and through all the growth they wanted to make sure they were prepared to scale and were aware of any potential areas that needed risk mitigation. We brought leadership and business continuity expertise to help them conduct a business impact analysis — evaluating all the critical processes across the company. We interviewed all department heads and developed a report outlining recommendations to promote further scale of the organization without any interruption to growth.
The Raining Virtue team jumped in, blended into my team, and gets the job done. But more than that, they bring positive energy to the team, are committed to the success of the business, and deliver results. I feel their attitude and deeper level of expertise makes us all better and makes us better to do business with.

Raining Virtue has brought us outstanding talent with the right experience. When we needed to migrate from one service platform to another, we engaged an experienced technical project manager. During the engagement process, and even while on furlough due to COVID, they invested in additional training and certifications to bring more expertise to our team. Our partnership is valued and we plan to continue working with them.

Case Summary
We helped Symetra develop a new insurance policy management system based on ASP.NET MVC and the Vue.js framework for the user interface, ASP.NET Web Services for the business tier and SQL Server as the data store. The system is core to their business and leverages custom built bi-temporal data storage to allow users to view policy information as it existed at any point in time. We also developed a temporal synchronization service that integrates with their Vue compensation and commissions package to solve a very complex and challenging business need to keep these separate systems in full data synchronization.
We have a special relationship with Raining Virtue. They have fantastic folks with expert skills in a variety of areas. This gives us huge peace of mind. No matter the size of project, one call taps us into an extended team of experts. We’re able to get business and IT operational support while managing costs. I’ve especially appreciated the flexibility in the pricing model — we like their subscription option. That way I can plan for a consistent budget, month after month.

Case Summary
Vigor implemented an ERP system several years ago. But like many companies they weren’t getting the full value out of their ERP investment.

We’ve used Raining Virtue for Project Management and System Integration for years. So when it came time to consolidate four ERP systems, we turned to them for leadership and expertise. We like how they always focus more on getting a quality result than just getting something done.
