Project Summary

TechWings (formerly Mentalstack) designed and developed an iOS proof of concept that evolved into a production release, delivering advanced features and the complete UX. The engagement began in July 2018 and emphasized rapid prototyping, strong UX, information security, and speed to market. The client noted TechWings' transparent management, creativity, and ability to deliver within tight deadlines, and expects the product to boost sales and surface customer insights.

Key Challenges

  • Needed an infusion of talented UX designers and native mobile developers to complement a backend-focused team
  • Required rapid prototyping of a private enterprise mobile app under a tight timeline
  • Wanted to experiment with emerging technologies while prioritizing great UX, information security, and speed to market

Project Deliverables

  • iOS proof of concept app
  • Production-ready iOS app (production release)
  • UX and UI designs
  • Advanced feature implementations
  • Strengthened codebase for production

Project Solution

After a thorough vendor selection process, the client engaged Mentalstack/TechWings beginning in July 2018 to build a native iOS proof of concept under a tight two-week timeline. The vendor provided UX design, native iOS development, QA support, and project management, delivered cutting-edge features and a polished UI, and then extended the work to add functionality and harden the codebase for the first production release. The engagement included an initial risk-free trial period and ongoing collaboration between the vendor's part-time UX/design resources, two full-time iOS developers, a part-time QA specialist, and a project manager.

Project Outcome

  • Enabled customers to access previously inaccessible insights and share information
  • Helped promote services and is expected to improve sales
  • Delivered rapid, high-quality UX and code, earning strong client satisfaction
