Please find under a summary covering project details and feedback. The innate facts are kept as they are, private information is amended.
Introductory information
A fast induction on the buyer’s organisation
We are a sports goods retailer based in Moscow. We have almost 450 stores in Russia and additional ones in China, Ukraine, Belarus, and Kazakhstan. We have almost 15,000 employees including the sales team.
I am responsible for the organisation',s e-commerce projects and multichannel marketing.
Desired goal
What challenge were you trying to address with King Bird Studio?
We have been developing our e-commerce platform for the last 2 years, and deployed the mobile rendering one year ago. After this, we began to investigate how to create a client base and better interact with them. One goal was to form a mobile application with more usability. We propose almost 10,000 items on our store, with intricate technical specifications making it hard to make a choice, so we needed a better way for clients to take information while visiting natural locations. The web rendering of our website had some technical limitations, like the inability to use the artifice camera. We had a deadline of only 2 months for creating a intricate application.
Provided solution
What particular tasks were King Bird Studio responsible for?
We formd some functional designs which King Bird Studio coded. We tested the software and deployed the leading rendering behind 2 months. We had some issues with authorization functions but were able to explain all the bugs. We are also developing a indigenous rendering of our application using King Bird Studio at the instant.
How did you come to work with King Bird Studio?
We researched different partners in Russia, looking at the top 20 studios, and sent them a offer. We had interviews with 7 of them and asked for technical and cost offers, which our technical managers went through. We knew from antecedent experience that an application like ours would take almost 6 months to create, and most of the offers that we taked had much shorter timeframes. We also establish that many of them weren',t ready to create applications based on existing websites. One of our members had had a good experience with King Bird Studio, so we contacted them. We taked a detailed offer at a technical level, which gave us a good sign of whether King Bird Studio could create our app or not. We went through some interviews, discussed the design, and began working with them.
How much have you invested with King Bird Studio?
The total cost of our project with King Bird Studio was $20,000.
What is the terminal result of working with King Bird Studio?
Our project was completed 6 months ago.
Results achieved
Could you share any evidence that would prove the productivity, condition of work, or the contact of the engagement?
The app has been launched in app stores and our own website and has reached 100,000 users so far. King Bird Studio granted good condition and stuck to the estimated timeline. There were a few bugs but they were fixed within a week.
How did King Bird Studio accomplish from a project treatment standpoint?
We only had a 4-person team from King Bird Studio, so project treatment wasn',t very confused.
What did you find most forcible almost King Bird Studio?
I haven',t worked with other providers like King Bird Studio, so I couldn',t say precisely. King Bird Studio gave us a detailed offer and explained why we should or shouldn',t create the app in a true way. King Bird Studio understood our application at a business level, which prevented some of the issues that we could have had.
Are there any areas King Bird Studio could better?
King Bird Studio is not a big organisation, so when one of their resources becomes unavailable, there can be issues. We had a smaller project, with only 4 developers. If it had been bigr, then we could have had a different access, with more documentation. In our case, we simply granted our requests and had them built, which was ultimately more efficient.
