Collaboration Process
Building a product requires a detailed action plan and a team to bring your business ideas to life. Below you can see a step-by-step breakdown of the collaboration process
Discovery
Duration
Depends on the complexity of your project. Discovery can take from a couple of weeks to a few months.
Team Structure
The first step towards building your product is to gather all requirements and outline a solution vision. These details will help estimate the time needed to create UI/UIX design and roughly evaluate the development effort.
What is Usually Done During Discovery
-
Stakeholders’ Interviews
To understand business goals and the product’s target audience
-
Competitors’ Analysis
To see what else there is on the market and what we can do to make the solution better
-
User Personas
To outline all user types for the product and their specific needs that the solution needs to cover
-
User Flows
To define a step-by-step experience of each user type using the product
-
Low-Fidelity Wireframes
To create a draft visual of the product functionality
-
Technological Stack & Third-Party Party Integrations
To figure out additional technologies and their need for the product’s success
UI/UX Design
Duration
To be estimated upon the completion of Discovery
Team Structure
During this phase, we create an easy-to-use interface, visuals and provide a detailed development estimate breakdown.
What Is Usually Done for UI/UX Design
-
High-Fidelity Wireframes
To demonstrate all product functionality and show how the product will look like
-
Visual Design Concept
To create a tailored look for the product to make it polished and easy-to-use
-
Design For All Pages
To make sure that all product screens look as stated in the guidelines of the chosen visual design concept
-
Technical Design
To prepare UI-KIT for the product with all possible states of elements to ensure proper software development
Development
Duration
To be estimated upon the completion of UI/UX design
Team Structure
During the Development phase, we implement all defined features of the future solution. The process consists of smaller phases allowing the team to gradually deliver the product functionality.

Acceptance Testing and Product Launch
Duration
1–2 weeks, depending on the final adjustment to be implemented before the product launch
Team Structure
Acceptance testing is done during the final coding steps to ensure that the end product looks and operates as expected. Once the testing is over and necessary adjustments are implemented in the solution, the product is finally released

Support & Maintenance
Team Structure
Once the product is launched, our team continues the work by keeping the project up and running.

FAQs
To estimate how long it will take to develop a particular project, we will need a lot of input data. Typically, a large project is divided into the smallest possible parts and each of them is evaluated separately. The smaller the task in question, the more accurate the overall estimate will be.
The cost of a project depends on a lot of factors. We will need to understand your needs in more detail: the overall development scope, to-be used technologies, a required team structure, etc.
In most cases, the decision about the amount of time allocated is yours. In our experience, the coolest projects come from the close interaction between the client and the team throughout the planning and development of the project.
To provide updates, we use channels and reports preferred by each particular customer. For this purpose, project managers create a communication plan at an early stage of the project. The plan includes information about types of meetings and reports, their frequency, communication channels, etc.
We provide support and maintenance services once active project development is over. During the final development stages, we can discuss the volume and frequency of further team engagement during the support period.
