Project Summary

DevTechnosys built MVPs for a car-sales social platform including a website and native iOS and Android apps, helping with design consultation, wireframes, and documentation. The team implemented buyer and dealer user types, login and profile features, photo filters, social timelines, and an admin backend; the vendor provides responsive project management with daily reports and two dedicated project managers. The engagement began in November 2016 and is ongoing while the client transitions to a local developer for final delivery.

Key Challenges

Define and document the functionalities and wireframes for a two-sided buyer/dealer platform
Build native iOS and Android MVPs alongside a web frontend to validate features
Implement complex dealer workflows and admin capabilities (account creation, referral codes) and iterate based on store-level testing

Project Deliverables

Mockups, wireframes, and initial designs
Frontend website implementation
Native iOS and Android MVP apps
Documentation of functionalities
Login and user profile systems for buyers and dealers
Dealer/admin backend with account creation and referral codes
Facebook login, photo editing and filtering, social timeline and comment features

Project Solution

DevTechnosys worked with the client to define functionality, finalize mockups and wireframes, and produce documentation. They implemented the frontend website and are building native iOS and Android MVP apps, dividing work into milestones (starting with login features) and creating buyer profiles, dealership/dealer-side accounts, admin tools for creating dealership accounts and referral codes, Facebook login, photo editing and filtering, a social timeline, and an admin dashboard for metrics.

Project Outcome

Three to four bugs were discovered recently and issues (including a server problem) were fixed overnight
The platform currently has 20 users
Two project managers provide responsive oversight and daily reviews, improving communication and delivery
