Communication

Keeping in touch with the client while working on a project is crucial for successful collaboration. Therefore, at the very beginning, an optimal framework is created that allows the team and the client to quickly resolve emerging issues, provide reports and conduct remote meetings. For this project, Slack became that decision.

Business Process Mapping

CONSULTING

To choose the best way to solve the problems of the project, a deep preliminary analysis is carried out. To begin with, the main and secondary goals, stakeholders and their goals are identified. Next, the main tasks of the project and methods for solving them are determined. Based on the study of ready-made solutions, competitors, and existing similar projects, a report is generated. The study also includes the identification of potential difficulties, obstacles, and risks. This allows to get a complete picture of the project, to better understand the needs of the client.

DESIGN

The design of the project consists of two key stages: creating a high-level architecture of the project and building an interactive prototype. Prototyping is a reliable tool that allows testing the functionality and capabilities of the future finished product before the main development work is carried out. This saves time on making corrections and additions since they can be foreseen even at this stage.

ENGINEERING

The development process begins with the formation of a project team. When the preliminary preparation is completed and the tasks are defined, the pool of talents of the company is examined and specialists with the necessary knowledge and expertise are selected. The distribution of roles, the choice of methodology for working on a project, and the distribution of tasks, are followed by their implementation. The company uses the Agile approach to work on the project, as it saves time, reduces the risk of errors, and allows to timely make the necessary changes, which reduces time to market and allows to maintain productivity.

Interactive Prototype

Prototyping is a powerful tool in the hands of the team, allowing them to pre-create and explore platform options. This also allows to identify possible obstacles, make improvements, and test the basic functionality. The platform usability developed at this stage is further improved and supplemented with necessary elements.
