Project Summary

FirstRain, a business analytics platform, engaged Kellton to rebuild native iOS and Android apps to align with a revamped web app. Kellton rebuilt and launched the native apps (published November 2015) and continued to provide scaled-down enhancements and maintenance. The client praised Kellton's technical abilities and fair billing practices while requesting a more proactive approach from the development team.

Key Challenges

  • Update mobile apps in time for a completely revamped product launch
  • Lack of in-house resources and skills to complete the mobile rebuild
  • Previous mobile partner was acquired and unavailable
  • Need to find a vendor with sufficient skills, manpower, and relevant experience

Project Deliverables

  • Native iOS app
  • Native Android app
  • App design
  • Testing
  • Business analytics services

Project Solution

Kellton rebuilt the client's native mobile apps for iOS and Android to align with a revamped web app, delivering native app development, design, testing, and business-analytics-related services within a tight timeframe (approximately 4 months for the launch). The vendor was selected after a proof-of-concept-based selection process; the initial project cost was $40,000–$50,000. An 8–10 week delivery produced apps published in November 2015, after which Kellton continued to provide ongoing enhancements and bug fixes in a reduced-capacity engagement.

Project Outcome

  • The new mobile apps were launched and made live alongside the revamped web app
  • The client reported the project as successful and the primary goal achieved
  • Client praised Kellton's technical capabilities, resource availability, and fair billing practices
  • Continued engagement for incremental enhancements and maintenance
