Developing mobile applications follows a structured yet flexible approach, much like a creative project. It begins with a business idea, progresses through planning, experimenting, and refining, until we deliver a tailored solution that meets your goals.
We typically move through these stages:
Initial Consultation
We start with a no-obligation initial consultation to discuss your needs and understand the problems you’re looking to solve. During this conversation, we offer insights into how a mobile app can enhance your business and provide initial estimates for time and budget.
Deliverables (upon request):
- Communication framework: Ensures clarity around business goals, assumptions, and constraints.
- Mobile app solution ideas: Concepts with high potential to deliver immediate value and elevate your services or products.
- Rough project estimates: An approximate timeline and budget for your project.
Time: 1-2 hours
Discovery Phase
In this phase, we conduct a comprehensive analysis of your business objectives, aligned with your target audience and the market. We assess existing mobile app solutions, analyze competitors, and explore the best technical approaches for your idea.
If we identify gaps such as insufficient data or a business model that needs refinement, we guide you through data collection and strategy reformation to ensure your project’s success.
Deliverables (upon request):
- Discovery Report: A detailed presentation for stakeholders to illustrate how mobile app development can enhance your business.
- Market and competitor analysis: A look into your competitors’ apps to determine if there’s a competitive advantage.
- Feasibility study: An expert opinion on the viability of your idea, complete with a projected ROI.
- Roadmap: A step-by-step implementation plan with a clear timeline and expected results at each stage.
- Team structure: Insight into the team working on your project and their expertise.
- Time and cost estimates: Detailed projections to prepare for the full journey ahead.
Time: From 2 weeks
Development Phase
Once we’ve confirmed the business case and technical feasibility, we proceed with full-scale mobile app development. Using the previously defined roadmap, we follow either a Scrum or Kanban methodology, providing weekly demos so you can monitor progress.
Deliverables:
- Fully functional mobile app: Ready to be deployed and integrated into your business operations.
- Source code and documentation: Clear and comprehensive technical documentation.
- App performance report: Detailed metrics and performance data of the mobile application.
- Knowledge transfer: We ensure your team understands the app’s workings for smooth maintenance and future updates.
Time: From 1 month
Continuous Support and Maintenance
Mobile app development doesn’t end with the launch. We offer ongoing support and maintenance to ensure the app stays updated and performs optimally. This includes feature updates, bug fixes, and adapting to new OS versions.
Deliverables:
- Automated workflows: For seamless updates and continuous integration/deployment.
- Performance monitoring: Ongoing analysis of app performance across devices and platforms.
- User feedback integration: Regular updates based on real-world usage and customer feedback.
Time: Ongoing, tailored to your needs.
