Our Frappe Development Process

Understanding Business Processes
We analyze your unique business processes and assess what level and types of solutions and tools will help you garner the best output with minimum efforts.
Determining Required Solution Architecture
Once we are done with our requirement analysis and assessment of the project scope, we start with solution architecture planning and determine the specific modules, underlying business logic and access control mechanisms we need to develop.
Developing an MVP
Based upon the planned solution architecture we make a roadmap for building a barebone Minimum Viable Product (MVP) with the core UI elements, frontend functionalities and backend business logic and integrations.
QA & Testing
To deliver a full-proof product that aligns with the project goals we ensure managed iterations involving key business stakeholders and client-side team members. We make sure that every subsequent iteration is followed by rigorous testing to guarantee optimum performance.
Rollout & Support
We go beyond last-mile delivery and ensure rigorous sustained monitoring of performance, security and user experience glitches after the application rollout. We continue to rollout new feature and security upgrades and performance maintenance as required.
