Process & results

  • Everything was started with the detailing of the idea, where the discovery phase with our business analyst took place. Together with the customer, we identified the key functionality that should be included in the MVP version of the product.

    When our business analyst was creating the technical documentation, mock-ups, mobile applications with the prioritized tasks and milestones’ deadlines, in the meantime our UX/ UI designer was preparing dynamic Mock-Ups (prototype screens) of the MVP version for the approval, after which we established the following conditions of work.

    The methodology of work: Scrum, bi-weekly sprints with daily team stand-ups and calls with a customer every 5 days.

    We suggested creating a web-platform with a responsive design for the MVP version and only then started composing everything into a Mobile Application.

    That approach gave us an opportunity to successfully meet the deadlines and after a while, we started to provide our customer with the demos of ready functions. When we had some modules done our client was able to play with those and to form change requests when they were needed.

    We fully met customer’s expectations, set up trustful and transparent business relations, what definitely was the reason for choosing us as a technology partner for further continuous integration.
