We are sort of a startup in providing wellness and lifestyle services. **OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE** For what projects/services did your company hire VentureDive Pvt. Ltd., and what were your goals? We wanted to develop a mobile application that provides mental wellness services.

In case clarity was required, adhoc meetings would also be setup. We used slack for communications, basecamp for tasks and file sharing and Google drive for storing all project documentation. Timelines were adhered to by and large. There were a couple of hiccups that are normal for projects, but overall we met our timelines. What did you find most impressive or unique about this company? The level of ownership taken by the team is phenomenal. Never did I feel I wasn't getting support, even after the project was completed. This is why we have retained VD for providing ongoing support. Secondly their resources are top-notch. Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently? We did have a few disagreements on features where we thought something was in-scope whereas VD team said it wasn't. There were times we felt something is "naturally" in scope even if its not explicitly written down. Perhaps before every sprint, a short feature discussion can be done to just clarify expectations on specific functionality, while keeping it in the scope of the project. --- #### Web App Dev for IoT Solutions Provider **The Project** - Services: Custom Software Development, Web Development - Project size: $10,000 to $49,999 - Project length: Apr. - Oct. 2021 **Project Summary**: VentureDive Pvt.

" **BACKGROUND** Introduce your business and what you do there. I am the general manager of a religious resource platform. We have a website and a couple of mobile apps that provide different kinds of information to Muslims. **OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE** What challenge were you trying to address with VentureDive Pvt. Ltd.? We initially hired a small team to work in-house. We built our apps using PHP technology. However, we decided that we needed to bring in an outside vendor to help us with more advanced technical development. **SOLUTION** What was the scope of their involvement? The information we provide to our users is mostly related to prayer times and religious events. There is a lot of calculation involved on the backend side which calculates the timings and dates for prayer by checking the user information. We have a couple of other features like online community public forums and blogs as well as other things.  They started working on our website first. They moved our website from PHP to Java. We give them the requirements and they do all the coding.  They developed our applications from scratch. The apps were developed for iOS as well as Android. They used Kotlin for Android and Swift for iOS. We provided them with the design, and they did all the development.  What is the team composition? It varies. We started with two people and we gradually increased the numbers. At this point in time, I believe there are 14 people working with us. Some of them are seniors, some are juniors, and one of them is playing a CTO role for us. There are a couple of people that are managing different teams with one managing the QA team. There are also some iOS developers, Android developers, QA engineers, and web frontend developers. A year ago, we had 18 people working for us when we had more work to do.

We asked if they could help, and they agreed. How much have you invested in them? It is roughly around $3 million. What is the status of this engagement? We started working together in August 2015, and our work is ongoing.  **RESULTS & FEEDBACK** What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement? We faced a couple of challenges in the first few months. The performance of our website was not that great, but then they really picked up the pace and the quality. Our apps are updated with all the latest iOS and Android requirements. The website is very crisp and has good performance metrics. I think it is now very good, but initially, we did face those issues. Overall, when looking at the five years of working with them, I think it has been a great journey. How did VentureDive Pvt. Ltd. perform from a project management standpoint? They have built a good relationship with us. It has been very transparent. Sometimes we have to make changes in the releases and in the product environment, which is normal and they are very accommodating in that area. If they see any issues in the deployment dates, or if there is an employee that is working with us that leaves the company or is going on a long vacation, they have been very accommodating and provide alternative solutions. I think it has been very good. What did you find most impressive about them? Our apps have been very good. We had been struggling with how to centralize the whole design system for our apps as well as for the website. They came up with the solution to build a design system, and they implemented it in our apps as well as our website. In our opinion, it has been a game-changer. They have been very helpful. Are there any areas they could improve? They have been doing a good job. If they weren’t not fulfilling our needs, I believe we would not still be working with them for all these years.

The pre JV was to have a MVP of consumer, buddy and retailer end. My role was to look after both product and operations, skewed more towards the latter.

Are there any areas for improvement? Yes, 2 things where VD should improve/work upon: The project was very costly with in the Pakistani landscape. Aligning a better pricing strategy for local jobs could work better. A project management tool (like Jira) with deadline, expectation and deliverable should be shared with the client.

We approached VD for the development of a mobile App. GoRead.pk is a movement of volunteers, who are caring adults who read stories aloud to children in communities easily accessible from their homes or work places by giving 1 hour a week of their time. Our goal is to register as many volunteers as possible and support them as they work with us. The App would make the process of registration, marketing, accessibility, sharing resources, schedules, feedback etc more streamlined and efficient as well as ease scale. The App would also serve as a communication tool between all stake holders in the program as well as eventually give children access to stories (both audio and written) for independent engagement.

It was a connectivity tool between organisation and volunteers, having feedback forms, resources, schedules, ability to cancel, notifications, reminders, etc. Eventually plan to build up to e-commerce, links for sharing stories (audio & text).

VD was responsible for developing an App for GoRead.pk. The App was a tool for volunteers to register their interest, share their details, and once selected, have access to resources, information and support for their volunteering read aloud sessions. The App was useful to the organisation to manage volunteers, receive feedback, share information, schedules and developments and to centralise all matters related to the program. We provided VD with all information related to our program, and the design of the read aloud process.  Once the App was ready for the pilot VD comarketed the app with GoRead.pk.

When VD came on board, there were just two months left for the pilot to begin. The VD team worked with urgency, effectively collaborating with us , and made sure the app was ready in time to use during the pilot.  Jira and Zoom were used, as far as I remember.  What did you find most impressive about this company? We noticed a strong team spirit and genuine interest in the project that stood out. We feel like VentureDive Pvt. Ltd. is part of the GoRead family and definitely a part of our movement.
