Our Proprietary Needs Assessment Process

Benefit from the extensive experience of our designers, analysts, and project managers in conducting the Needs Assessment process and verify your concept of a digital product or service.

Competitive analysis, allowing you to better understand the market

Identification of key features for the Minimum Viable Product (MVP)

Technical feasibility study

Preliminary User Experience (UX) design and overall MVP specification

Cost and timeline estimation

As a result of the Needs Assessment process, you will find out if a native mobile application is an essential element of your business, and if so, you will learn the required budget for its preparation.

Trust and responsibility are two of Norbsoft's main values. The success of our clients is our success, which is why you can be sure that we will propose the implementation of the application only when we are convinced that our services are necessary for you.

Thorough Approach to the Design Process

If you already have specified expectations regarding the product, the next step is to visualize them and precisely define the technical requirements for all its components.

Creating an appropriate design system will maintain consistency between all elements of the project and accelerate the design work.

If you have a graphic design prepared by your internal team or a creative agency, at Norbsoft we will help verify its accuracy and completeness, and suggest making changes if it is beneficial for your project.

The design process is similar when implementing backend solutions by your own team.

Production of Native Mobile Applications

Norbsoft is one of the few software houses, that has been creating native mobile applications for iOS and Android systems since they became an integral part of smartphones.

We use the latest, proven technologies for each ecosystem, based on scalable architectures. Currently, we are using the Swift and Kotlin programming languages.

We work in two methodologies - in sprints or by dividing the project into milestones - depending on your needs and project requirements.

Quality Control

At Norbsoft's office, we have a vast array of test devices, covering all supported versions of operating systems, screen resolutions, and differences in computing power. We ensure 100% certainty that mobile application testing performed by us will result in a reliably functioning product.

As part of mobile application testing, we conduct tests of applications developed by Norbsoft, as well as perform audits of external solutions.

Development of test cases and manual functional testing

Automated tests

Security tests, compliance with OWASP MASVS

Maintenance and SLA

Mobile applications created by Norbsoft under the Fixed Price model are subject to a 12-month warranty.

Every application after its launch requires maintenance and regular servicing. In the absence of intensive in-house application development by a dedicated team, Norbsoft offers our clients an SLA (Service Level Agreement) that ensures shorter response times to bug reports and tickets.

In addition to functional development, at Norbsoft you can also count on:

Adapting applications to new versions of systems and requirements of Google Play and App Store

Refactoring and updating used libraries

Monitoring performance and errors

Valuable Knowledge Transfer

At Norbsoft, we nurture long-term relationships with our clients. With some, we have been working for over 10 years.

When it comes to maintenance and development, not every mobile application requires building technological competencies within the organization. That being said, there are those which, as a result of global business strategies or after achieving great success, clients decide to develop within their own structures.

The client requires, we support project migration processes by providing appropriate source code documentation and functional documentation, as well as by extending the client's new team until it becomes self-reliant.

The proprietary rights to the software we create are transferred to the client.

Modernization of Mobile Applications

If your current mobile application no longer meets business objectives, lags behind the competition, loses existing users, no longer meets legal requirements, or simply does not function properly, it's time to modernize it.

As part of the services offered by Norbsoft, we conduct a process that includes one or more of the following stages:

General Audit

Code Refactoring

UX/UI Modernization

Security Update

The general audit, referred to by us as the Revival Sprint, is time dedicated by our developers, designers, and QA team to familiarize themselves with the product and verify its actual state, resulting in a recommendation for further actions.

Depending on the audit results, at Norbsoft we may propose modernizing the UI itself, refactoring the code (better organizing its structure to reduce the costs of further maintenance and development of the product), or introducing new features.

Research and Prototyping

Creating a unique feature, often constituting a competitive advantage of a mobile application, will not always be straightforward in terms of technical solution.

Features such as custom use of device sensors, connectivity mechanisms, artificial intelligence, or innovative forms of data presentation require prototyping. Thanks to a systematic, iterative approach, prototyping can enable the achievement of the intended effect or allow for withdrawal if implementation within the anticipated budget is not feasible.

At Norbsoft, as part of numerous projects for clients, hackathons, and competency development, we have created applications utilizing Augmented Reality (AR), AI, and Machine Learning in the field of image recognition, as well as rich forms of data visualization using the Unity 3D engine.

If you aim to create a mobile application that is largely based on an existing website built using Progressive Web Apps (PWA) technology and want to publish it in the Google Play and Apple AppStore, we can help create the appropriate packaging.

The key is to add unique value utilizing system solutions that a web browser alone cannot provide. Together with your team responsible for PWA, at Norbsoft we will create the appropriate integrations and guide you through the process of setting up the right accounts and publishing the product.

Value Forecasting

Check if a mobile application will be cost-effective for you.

Value Forecasting is a unique service offered by Norbsoft that will help you find the answer to the question, "What value will my business gain from a mobile application?"

As part of the Value Forecasting process, we work with the client to select the scope and stages of work, based on the current situation and needs of your company.

Important components of the process include the analysis of the context of building the application and the verification of previously set project goals. These analyses serve to make the project implementation planning more effective.

Thanks to Value Forecasting, you can also choose to forgo creating your own application if our recommendations indicate so.
