Project
Description

Our client hired us to implement some features for their travel application. This app allows users to find a guide in a city or sign up as a guide instead. Guides offer their options for trips, routes. Users can check cafes, attractions, hotels in the city they want to visit. It is also possible to check the weather in the city through the application. All information can be downloaded to the local cache on the phone to access it without an Internet connection. In a web resource and a mobile application, all communication is conducted via an integrated chat.

To carefully integrate all the set functions, we have stopped on the following technologies:

Team

Based on the client`s requirement, we have assembled specialists with the required stack of technologies and relevant expertise.

Backstage

Whether it`s a small or a big project, we always encourage communications to make sure everyone is on the same page.

Whiteboard meeting

Whiteboard meetings at Computools help to maintain team spirit and pay attention to the smallest details of each project.

Brainstorming

Should any challenges arise, we always gather together and express our thoughts on possible ways to solve those issues.

Dev meeting

Dev meeting is an integral part of our development process where our engineers discuss deadlines, challenges, and the state of the development process. Our project managers track the progression of the project and monitor the burn-out of the team.

Internal Communication Flow

To better control the overall development processes with our client, we decided to use Assembla and Asana as the main tool for task tracking. Skype and Slack were used to address any queries.

Project Management Methodology

As most of the features were easy to develop and integrate into the existing application, time and material methodology was chosen as the most suitable option.

Tasks were distributed according to the workload and qualifications of the specialists, and time limits are set for the specialist to meet. At the end of the month, a full report was made about what was done and in what time frame.
