Imagine needing to develop a cutting-edge web app for your users but facing the daunting task of issuing precise specifications. This was our customer’s challenge.
Together, we crafted a detailed project roadmap. This foundational work empowered our customer to confidently launch the project, setting the stage for a successful, on-time, and on-budget development journey.
Addressing the Challenges in Autonomous Web App Creation
The customer’s ambition is to develop a web app that will enable competitors to become autonomous in their registration process.
Given its status, the customer needs to issue an RFP to select a service provider to develop this app. The strategic aspect and potential business complexity of the project mean that a precise specification and an initial scoping of the effort required must be drawn up before issuing an official RFP.
Setting the Stage for a Successful Web App Development
Our Scoping solution enables to draw up a “roadmap” for an application or system. Three actors are involved in this elaboration:
- A UX/UI expert, who proposes a functional solution and lists the user paths
- A Solution Architect, who draws up a technical solution and estimates the effort required to implement it
- A Program Manager, who establishes a project team and schedule
At the end of this scoping, the customer can decide whether to launch the project directly with our team or to draw up an RFP based on the elements provided.
How Our Scoping Solution Drives Project Success
This solution enables our customers to benefit from the expertise of our technical and functional coworkers in the creation of their digital products. We transform an application idea into a detailed project thanks to the following elements produced during our service:
- Functionality backlog
- An application navigation plan
- A list of non-functional requirements (authentication, performance, data volume, geo-replication, etc.)
- A technical diagram of the solution
- An estimate of operating and implementation costs
- A proposed team and development schedule.
Given that 16% of IT projects succeed in staying on budget and on time, good preparation such as the one proposed here is essential for a successful start.
