Zigfred Mobile App Development
Initial Situation
- A tight schedule is set for the development of the Zigfred mobile app. For this, the customer needs a scalable development team with mobile app expertise.

- A timely date for the product launch on the market has been communicated and must be met.
Challenges
- The product requirements are defined and regularly adjusted during the development phase.
- The hardware is not available until shortly before the development is finished, mockups are created as a workaround to simulate the hardware.
- The product launch date is defined and timely, which requires lean and efficient development. At the same time the project budget has to be kept.
