Project Summary

Andersen developed mobile applications (iOS and Android) for a digital ordering SaaS platform, delivering React Native–based apps and accompanying documentation. The vendor provided skilled, independent React Native developers and grew the team from an initial four-person group to seven people. The engagement supported rapid delivery under tight deadlines and helped the client's company scale with additional parallel projects.

Key Challenges

Need to develop mobile apps running on an existing SaaS backend
Deliver a working service quickly from a semi-working backend
Requirements were not well documented, requiring ad-hoc planning and flexible implementation

Project Deliverables

iOS mobile app
Android mobile app
Technical documentation provided alongside development

Project Solution

Andersen supplied experienced React Native developers to build both the Android and iOS versions of the client's mobile apps on top of the client's SaaS backend. They worked from wireframes and an existing backend API, handled ad-hoc requirements and planning, and produced documentation concurrently with development. The team scaled from an initial project manager plus three developers to a larger cross-functional team including a business analyst and QA.

Project Outcome

Client reported satisfaction with the work despite lacking formal metrics
Project met extremely tight deadlines and handled ad-hoc requirements swiftly
Client company experienced quick growth and was able to initiate several parallel projects smoothly
Workflow was effective; Andersen proactively suggested process improvements and collaborated using Scrum/Scrumban and Atlassian JIRA
