Process

An agile, strategic and research-driven approach to web development

Research and discovery

A project begins with a research and discovery phase. We start with having discussions with stakeholders to understand the project requirements in detail. We gather all the information and recommend the set of features that can be taken up for the first phase of the project, i.e. MVP or minimum viable product. Exact features with acceptance criteria are defined after discussions with all the stakeholders. Finally, we share the project scope document, cost estimate and the project plan with timelines.

Agile development

We hire great people, support them and their development and empower them to make decisions. When team members feel empowered and engaged, they work to their full potential, and it shows in the quality of the software they deliver. We follow agile methodology to develop software that can be delivered effectively and updated incrementally. In sprint planning, we divide the features to be developed for the MVP into development sprints. At the end of the sprint, we share the release with all the stakeholders so that they can track the progress and add fresh business and users’ insights that can be taken into account while planning the next sprint.

Quality assurance and deployment

Once the software is thoroughly tested, we perform quality assurance audits in line with ISO 9001 standards to ensure acceptance criteria are met and the final product is as per the promised quality. Additionally, we perform security checks as per the ISO 27001 standards to deliver a secure and stable system. All audit reports are shared with the stakeholders. We set up analytics for the system so that continuous monitoring and reporting is in place. App store setups are done and the app is published on App Store and Google Play and the connected web app is made live on the production.

Support and maintenance

We offer support and maintenance services for all projects. Our support team can monitor the system, detects and fixes bugs, performs quality and security audits, keeps a check on analytics and provides proactive support to our clients after the deployment. Our tech specialists can also continue to work on your project for longer durations to develop new features, modify existing ones, deploy new designs along with general maintenance and monitoring.
