Our partnership with EF began with strategic IT support for the Smithsonian Student Travel division, where we demonstrated our ability to deliver reliable, scalable solutions. This success led EF to entrust us with increasingly larger and more complex projects across their organization.

One of the biggest highlights was the complete redesign and rebuild of the EF College Break website. Over more than a decade, we handled everything from architecture and implementation to continuous enhancements. Beyond the public site, we also built and maintained the brand’s full booking platform and client portal—covering global reservations, payment processing, authentication, and customer service workflows.

We didn’t stop there. Our team took on College Break’s data infrastructure and business intelligence reporting, giving them real-time visibility into customer engagement, financial performance, and operational trends. We even helped EF become one of the first 50 companies to launch an app on Facebook’s F8 platform—showcasing our work live at Facebook’s developer conference in San Francisco. This positioned EF as an early leader in social-integrated travel experiences.

After more than 13 years of collaboration and innovation, we wrapped up in 2018 with a smooth knowledge transfer and system handoff to EF’s internal team—leaving behind a solid, scalable architecture ready for the company’s continued growth.
