Project Summary

Ideas2IT delivered iOS app development and related infrastructure for a social-shopping retail startup, translating the client's visual mockups and flows into a working product. The engagement has been a small, part-time scope (under $10,000) with the vendor producing a clear roadmap and hitting milestones. A beta launch was planned within weeks, and an Android version is intended in a future phase.

Key Challenges

Lacked in-house app-development expertise
Needed to validate a small-scope concept within constrained budget and scale later

Project Deliverables

iOS mobile application
App mockups and visual flow designs
Backend infrastructure components
Development roadmap and detailed flow

Project Solution

Ideas2IT provided end-to-end iOS app development and worked on the app infrastructure while the client's engineering team handled backend deal-creation components. The vendor assisted with mockups and flow design, produced a detailed flow and roadmap for development, and continues to deliver the remaining iOS work while the client plans a future Android version.

Project Outcome

Delivered high-quality iOS component quickly with no need for fixes
Met milestones and provided a clear development roadmap
Beta launch planned in 6–7 weeks with vendor having ~4 weeks of remaining work
