Client

Project Summary

GLOBALDEV (Formerly IDAP) was contracted by Tech River LLC to build an iOS application requiring UI/UX design, iOS frontend development, and a backend database. The vendor completed version one of the app (a soft release to ~100 association members) and began work on version two. The client reported excellent project management, strong communication, and that the team often ran ahead of schedule with minimal QA required.

Key Challenges

  • The client had no in-house iOS development experience
  • The project required a rapid turnaround and the client preferred a team over an individual
  • The engagement had a limited budget that constrained vendor selection

Project Deliverables

  • UI/UX design
  • iOS application (frontend)
  • Backend database and API

Project Solution

The vendor delivered end-to-end iOS work: they created the app's UI/UX, implemented the iOS frontend, and developed the backend database/API. The client engaged the vendor via Upwork and contracted them as a team to accelerate delivery. Version one of the iOS app was completed and published (soft release), and the client immediately started a version two engagement.

Project Outcome

  • The iOS app was published to the App Store and soft-released to a focus group of ~100 members
  • The client reported high satisfaction, excellent project management, and minimal QA required
  • The engagement continued into a second version with additional projects ongoing
