CASE STUDY / MIDDLETWIN’S OWN PRODUCT

From counting ballots to running clubs and shows.

Middletwin Software for Car Clubs and Car Shows began with one practical need: count hundreds of ballots and produce the results at a car show. It grew into a platform used by multiple clubs and shows across the country.

3 hours 30 minutes

Time to produce ballot results at the original show.

Founder Wade Girard reports that entering ballots into the original computer-based system reduced the time to results from three hours to thirty minutes at that show. This is a historical, event-specific result, not a benchmark or guarantee for every customer.

The starting problem

Hundreds of ballots had to be counted before car-show results could be announced. The work took hours and created a clear opportunity for a purpose-built tool.

The first solution

A computer-based application let organizers key in ballots and calculate the results. It addressed the immediate counting problem before expanding into a broader product.

Built through real use

New features were added annually in response to requests. That ongoing feedback expanded the original ballot tool into software for the work of managing a car club throughout the year and running its shows.

The platform today

Membership and dues management, communications, event registration, voting and judging, member self-service, payments, event sales and financial reporting now share a connected web-based platform. Multiple clubs and shows use the product across the country.

Scope and architecture

The work has grown from ballot entry and calculation to connected administrative and member workflows, ongoing product development and third-party integrations. Customer data is separated into individual databases, and the product supports multi-factor authentication with authenticator applications.

DELIVERY FLOW

From requirements to a supported solution.

A clear sequence keeps the work understandable from the first conversation through handover. The engagement scope sets the deliverables, review points and support arrangements.

  1. 01 / DISCOVER

    Understand the work

    Map users, workflows, current systems and constraints. Identify the outcome, data needs and security and accessibility requirements.

  2. 02 / DEFINE

    Agree on scope and milestones

    Set priorities, architecture, responsibilities, acceptance criteria and review points. Agree how changes to scope will be handled.

  3. 03 / BUILD & REVIEW

    Make progress visible

    Build in manageable increments. Review working software with the client and use feedback to refine the next steps.

  4. 04 / TEST & ACCEPT

    Check the agreed requirements

    Test critical workflows and integrations against acceptance criteria. Include the agreed security and accessibility checks, document issues and review readiness.

  5. 05 / DOCUMENT & HAND OVER

    Make the solution maintainable

    Prepare operating and deployment documentation, knowledge transfer and an access inventory. Confirm the client’s agreed access to code repositories, administrative accounts and systems.

  6. 06 / SUPPORT & EVOLVE

    Plan what happens next

    Agree support responsibilities, maintenance arrangements and future improvements. Set response expectations and continuity arrangements in the engagement scope.

Continuity is part of the plan

For custom engagements, define code ownership and licensing, repository access, administrative access, documentation and handover responsibilities in writing. Existing products and third-party components keep their applicable licensing terms. The client’s access and continuity needs should be agreed before implementation, not left until the end.

SECURITY & ACCESSIBILITY

Specific practices. Clear requirements.

Customer data separation

Middletwin’s car-club and car-show software uses separate databases for customer data, keeping each customer’s data separate from other customers’ data.

Multi-factor authentication

The product supports multi-factor authentication and integration with authenticator applications. Authentication requirements for a custom engagement are established for that project.

Accessibility requirements

Accessibility needs belong in the requirements and acceptance criteria. For procurement discussions, identify the required standard, the interfaces and documents in scope, and the testing and evidence the buyer needs.

Security controls and accessibility evidence need to match the specific solution. This page does not assert a product accessibility conformance rating or a security certification.
