Managed Project

Before evaluating your project, we make a list of functional and non-functional requirements. Depending on the size of the project, its level of complexity and features, this stage can take from several days up to several weeks. During this time, our business analyst and solution architect conducts a series of sessions with you, during which high-level requirements are determined and refined. As a result, the artifacts of this stage can be screen mockups, the Software Requirement Specification document and other materials that will allow to estimate both the project budget and duration with a fairly high accuracy.

After all the necessary data is collected, we make a high-level estimate in terms of time and budget. Usually this is a document containing detailed description of how many hours are needed both to create and implement individual parts of the system and to perform any additional actions.
If the project is written from scratch, the estimate may include the following sections:
– Estimated time for UI/UX design
– Estimated time for a preliminary study of the subject area
– Estimated time for system design
– Estimation of time for the implementation of all system functions in accordance with the requirements
– Time estimation for DevOps operations and deployment
– Time estimation for testing, bug fix and project management
In addition, the estimate usually includes a recommendation regarding the choice of the optimal technical stack for the implementation of the project, a timeline in the form of a Gantt chart, and the total expected budget of the project. As practice shows, our technical expertise allows us to give an estimate with no more than 20% deviation for medium-sized projects.

Before launching any project, we sign a contract for the provision of development services and an NDA. We value our reputation and cultivate best business practices to ensure mutual trust and respect.

Getting started on any new project usually depends on a number of factors, such as:
– if the project needs to be written from scratch or the development of a new version is required
– the number and type of development stages according to the original plan,
– the number of members of the formed team and their technical expertise,
– etc.
In most cases we have engineers with the required expertise who are ready to start working on the project immediately after signing the contract. A full team will be formed in the process of working on the project, which, depending on its size and technological complexity, can take 1-3 months for a team of 5-7 people.

We are the adepts of an agile approach of development and work using the Agile methodology on most projects, as well as using modern development tools and programming languages:

– We use Git as our version control system.
– Bug tracking systems Jira and Redmine,
– We work with AWS, Azure, Google Cloud Platform cloud solutions.
– We use popular programming languages, such as ​​JavaScript, Java, C#, Ruby, Python, Swift, Kotlin, etc.
– Numerous frameworks and libraries like React, React Native, Angular, .NET, etc.
– MongoDB, MySql, PostgreSQL databases.

We make sure you work only with top specialists qualified for the domain area of ​​your project. We also pay a lot of attention to the quality of the code, following the best practices and coding conventions, and the product itself. Detailed elaboration of test scenarios and the use of automation ensures bugs are quickly identified before getting into the release.

All communication on the project is conducted through the project manager, usually it’s one or two calls per week. In case necessary, we will be happy to introduce you to all our team members working on the project. Following the Scrum methodology, we develop in 2-3 week sprints. At the end of each sprint, we make a demo of the working version of the product and agree with you on the scope of work for the next sprint.

Our UI/UX designers and QAs will always give recommendations for improving the User Experience, as well as the DevOps team will provide a high level of security and data backup in case of unforeseen circumstances, and the project manager is always there for you ready to provide latest relevant updates.

We usually bill you for the work performed by the team once a month providing a detailed report on the tasks completed, as well as the number of hours spent on design, development, QA and other types of work. Our finance department will make sure that you use the most convenient payment methods for our services.
