The Latest Technologies and Frameworks
Our Process
Discovery & Requirements Analysis
Projects begin with a discovery session, followed by a budget/timeline estimation and proposal. We’re happy to advise on technology strategies and planning.
User Experience / Interaction Design
Our UX/UI design team begins the process of planning out workflows in a collaborative fashion.
Development
In parallel with design efforts, the high-level setup of all of the moving pieces that make up a software ecosystem are planned out and put in place. Software engineering & design efforts continue for the duration of the project, using 1 or 2-week iteration planning cycles, while keeping stakeholders involved.
Launch & Support
There can be anywhere from 10 to 30 individual pieces/services required to keep a software ecosystem running. We can host, manage and support it all.
