BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am the Co-Founder and CTO of a start-up called Scout (Scout It Now, LLC). Scout partners with employers and employee benefits aggregators as a critical addition to their current wellness and childcare programs, providing employees with a simple way to engage and enrich their kids' lives so they can be more productive at work.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire AMS LLC, and what were your goals?

We wanted to build an app that would make discovering and managing kids activities as simple as it should be, so parents could focus on other more important things. We needed to work with a company that could take our idea and wireframes drawn on napkins and turn it into a real functioning app for iOS and Android.

SOLUTION

How did you select AMS LLC and what were the deciding factors?

We knew we wanted to use Upworks to find the initial development team, and Stan Sakharchuk and his AMS LLC team had very high reviews and great feedback on that site. After interviewing a few different businesses, we knew that AMS LLC would be the best team to work with to help build out our new app.

Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.

We have worked very closely and collaboratively with AMS LLC right from the start. Our project manager kicked our relationship off with a meeting to meet the team and go over our objectives. We worked with their UX team to come up designs for the app, and once the designs were finalized they began app development for iOS, with the Android app to follow after. I believe that the most successful projects are those where the teams check in regularly, and Stan and his team made that easy. We had regular check-ins over zoom and skype, so I always knew where each project was at any given time.

How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

A project manager was the main point of contact. We also interacted with the UX lead to help come up with mobile designs.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?

Scout partners with employers and employee benefits aggregators as a critical addition to their current wellness and childcare programs, providing employees with a simple way to engage and enrich their kids' lives so they can be more productive at work. We launched in early July and have started to see a lot of traction in the Boston area. We recently closed deals with two fortune 500 companies with 10s of thousands of employees who have access to the Scout app on both iOS and Android.

Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timelines.

Project manager is very involved and gives regular updates to keep everyone updated. I would get regular updates via skype or calls, and we were always in constant communication. Even with the time change, I never felt like it was hard to touch base with the project manager.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

I'm most impressed with how hard working they are. Working in a start-up, things need to move fast. We needed these new apps quickly and AMS LLC delivered on all of that. The quality of their work is great and we have been very happy with everything they have delivered. We currently have an ongoing contract for additional dev work with them and will continue to use them for our development work.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

Honestly, I can't think of any. Like with any development project, communication is key. Whenever I had a concern, it was immediately addressed. We are extremely happy with them and have already recommended them to other businesses.
