What was the scope of their involvement?
We’re developing an app used by buyers and suppliers. The two separate apps, one for each party, were created using a hybrid approach to make them available for iOS and Android users. On the app, buyers can make lists of construction materials they need to purchase, and it will be sent out to the suppliers in the area.
After receiving that material request, they respond with pricing. Then, the buyer can sift through the pricing options and select an option that best suits their needs. They can complete the final transaction in-app, too.
The logo, colors, and basic designs were provided by our team. However, the end designs, layout, and code is entirely their work.
How did you come to work with Vinnove?
We originally found them on Clutch. After talking to several companies about the development, it was difficult finding a local company within our budget. Vinnove was on Clutch and seemed like a perfect middle ground. I reached out with them from there.
What is the status of this engagement?
We started working with them In May 2019, and the project is ongoing.
Despite being early in the development process, the team created a prototype that has won the support of the majority of potential supplier-side users in the region. Their proactive, empathetic approach has benefited them in their abilities to provide assistance wherever their expertise allows.
