Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.
Scope included complete multi-lingual mobile app development in both IOS/Android platforms of brand new solution for startup company in the construction compliance space (Mege-Tek). It involved data model / database design, architecture design, security design and UI/UX design.
The app enables multiple stakeholders to communicate via embedded chat capabilities, upload/download of documents, generation of and submittal of reports both on schedule and on demand. Once initial MVP was releases on app stores, ongoing releases have been published based on new requirements.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?
The project(s) follow an agile / scrum master methodology, with clear deliverables by sprint, from planning and scheduling to testing and migration to a production environment, hosted in MS Azure.
In between sprints, progress sessions were held that ensured close alignment to scope and timelines. After each meeting, minutes were provided with details, action items and agreements. Any "ahead of schedule" or "delays" were reported timely and overall, the project was delivered on time, and on budget.
Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?
Project Management was (is) top-notch, with Subject Matter Experts (scrum masters) driving agile methodology. Delivery of sprints on time, and usually above expectations (UI/UX is fantastic, solid DB, and clean/secure backend-frontend comms) .
The team spent the time to understand our objectives, the problem statement for our app and challenged us for clarifications or provided unsolicited recommendations based on their expertise in multiple industries. As the app took form, the team was able to adjust to last-minute changes via controlled change order processes, that provided comfort to both parties.

Quality of Staff at all levels, from Upper Management, to Project Management, Engineers (back end, FrontEnd, UI/UX) and Operations. I was impressed with their ability and willingness to provide only the best results at all times and their commitment to scope, timelines. Solid R&D and QA.
This translated into extremely limited to non-existent bugs reported once the app was available in the stores. Similarly, they are a company very easy to do business with (commercial and technical levels).
Are there any areas for improvement or something FOONKIE MONKEY could have done differently?
We are extremely pleased with the work done by Foonkie Monkey and continue to work with them for upcoming development /enhancements, including an upcoming expansion to the platform for online use.

SOLUTION
How did you select this agency and what were the deciding factors?
Foonkie Monkey was referred to us by a trusted source. We reached out and established a relationship. They immediately helped us connect with a few different engineers. We hired the 3rd or 4th engineer we interviewed.
Describe the project in detail and walk through the stages of the project.
Our project is a Ruby/Rails web app, with mobile components. The role requires fullstack experience and the ability to jump in at any place on the stack. Customer and product requirements vary often and require flexibility. So the persons we seek must be OK with ambiguity and be self-starting to do research.
Describe the recruitment process in detail.
We first discussed the overall project with Foonkie and the types of people we were seeking. After identifying some initial candidates we would send them a take-home test. Upon completion we would all connect and review the take-home test and discuss the role in more detail.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
Can you share any outcomes from the engagement that demonstrate progress or success?
With their support we continue to work on customer requirements and features on a fast-paced schedule.
How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?
Even though their developers were remote they became an integral part of our team almost immediately. We heavily use Slack and that platform requries good communication; which their developers were able to provide.

An education company hired FOONKIE MONKEY to create a mobile app from scratch. They've completed the initial research phase and are now focusing on front- and backend development.

BACKGROUND
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I am the SVP for strategic partnerships at Focus EduSolutions.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
What challenge were you trying to address with FOONKIE MONKEY?
We wanted to build a mobile application for a problem that needed to be addressed.
SOLUTION
What was the scope of their involvement?
We gave them our research and the business wireframe that we had put together, and they did further scoping based on the requirements and how they thought we should proceed. They came up with the project scope and presented that to us based on the information that we gave them and their findings.
They then put together a proposal that broke down the timeframe for the creation of the front- and backend development and the administrator and UI component.
We are currently building a few different phases of the project and plan to launch in early 2023.
How did you come to work with FOONKIE MONKEY?
We did research on different companies through Google and social media, and we took proposals from a few companies before deciding to move forward with FOONKIE MONKEY.
What is the status of this engagement?
We started working with them in March 2022, and it is ongoing.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
We have metrics based on meeting milestones. We are particular about needing to know what challenges might come up because we want to know what might impede us from our planned release date. They have come a long way in terms of understanding and managing our expectations.
They have been very receptive and responsive to these milestones and expectations we have, and we’ve seen positive outcomes in regard to the process that we’ve set for them.
How did FOONKIE MONKEY perform from a project management standpoint?
They are very astute and prompt in their response. They are good listeners and have great project managers and leadership teams. They process how we are responding to them, and are very transparent about where they are leading us.
We use Slack and Trello for communication and project management.
What did you find most impressive about them?
They come up with valuable and helpful solutions when problems arise, and they are not afraid to go back to the drawing board to figure out those solutions. They are eager to help, flexible in their approach, and go outside the box for answers. They are willing to modulate and research ideas, and are good about articulating that to us.
They’ve also been very collaborative with us throughout the project.
Are there any areas they could improve?
We’ve had no issues with them based on their credentials, but we do think they could work on communicating effectively and extensively. We would prefer if they over-communicated with us, so that nothing is left up to assumptions.

FOONKIE MONKEY has created a mobile app for a sports app platform. The team has also built a fantasy draft on the website through Flutter.
Although the project is ongoing, FOONKIE MONKEY has been collaborative and accessible throughout the workflow. Their attention to detail to ensure everything is right before moving to the next task is notable in the partnership. They're communicative, proactive, and passionate about the partnership.

BACKGROUND
Please describe your company and your position there.
I am the marketing director for Draftball. We are a sports app in the fantasy space.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
For what projects/services did your company hire FOONKIE MONKEY, and what were your goals?
We wanted to develop a mobile app for users to enjoy the fantasy experience on their phones all season without ever needing to use their desktop or laptops. We also wanted to build a fantasy draft feature on the web, which Foonkie Monkey helped us out with as well.
SOLUTION
How did you select FOONKIE MONKEY and what were the deciding factors?
We searched online for potential developers and created a shortlist. After interviewing a handful of them, we found Foonkie Monkey to be the most energetic, experienced, and cost-efficient for our project.
Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.
We held multiple discovery meetings to discuss our goals, objectives, and product features. We provided their team with screens, designs, and examples of functionality. We wanted the app built in Flutter, which Foonkie Monkey was experienced in, and once the first set of functions was complete we began testing.
How many resources from the FOONKIE MONKIE team worked with you, and what were their positions?
We worked with a project manager, multiple app developers, a designer, and a web developer.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?
We are still completing both the mobile app and web app, but Foonkie Monkey has stayed engaged the entire time, always available for group testing with our team and theirs.
Though we would have liked to have the end product sooner, they paid attention to detail to make sure everything was right before moving on to the next feature that was to be built.
Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.
The project manager was easy to communicate and always made himself available. We used Slack, Miro, and Google Suite products to communicate, which made things easier. As stated above, the only challenge we had was timing.
We wanted things done a bit sooner but we ran into some back end dev issues (losing a dev mid-project), but other than that it was extremely smooth.
What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
Their energy and passion for the project are always at a high level. Fantasy apps are not easy to build and they stayed engaged and communicated smoothly throughout.
Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?
The only thing we could have wanted more of was speed of delivery. That said, any fantasy sports app is a beast to build and they did a great job.
