Recently chatting with two entrepreneurs who wanted to develop their apps, they didn't have the experience of moving the Internet, and they had ideas and money. Because there is no mobile internet related experience, want to quickly develop the app, but also afraid to set up a technical team too long, the impact of product development, asked me to find some outsourcing matters, I am in this article to tidy up some of my views. The following are all the scenarios that are outsourced to the entire app (including design drafts, prototypes, front and back).

1. Outsourcing is a stopgap measure, and ultimately, it is the formation of their own technical team.

A feature of mobile Internet: fast, the product iteration speed fast, eliminate also fast. If also for a non-mobile internet related experience of entrepreneurs, under the pressure of time, want to quickly develop products, find outsourcing is a helpless choice. But in the end, keep in mind that it is necessary to build your own technical team.

The cost of outsourcing is generally divided into 3 pieces, after signing the contract to pay a portion of the prepayment, after the completion of the development of a payment, maintenance after a period of time to settle the mantissa.

In this process, the advance payment and development you are grandpa, maintenance of that period of time outsourcing is grandpa. Why? As a result of the maintenance period, the general application has been on the line. At this time a lot of problems will be exposed, the user has feedback, the most important part of the work is the rapid improvement, but!!! Outsourcing companies generally after the development is completed, the relevant developers transferred to do another project, at this time, you are anxious to fix the problem, hurriedly and outsourcing company communication, but the outsourcing company's related developers may be busy with other projects, what do you say? This period of time will also have a great dispute.

Therefore, should be outsourced at the same time, also ready to build their own technical team, to the outsourcing of delivery, the technical team also take over the outsourcing code, and this period should be taken over the sooner the better, because the new project should be familiar with the time Ah!

2. In the process of outsourcing, to maintain full communication

Outsourcing team, after all, do not know their own projects, so communication is very important.

In the beginning, you should give the head of the outsourcing team to say their own ideas, and make sure that both sides understand the same. For example, when you outsource a design draft, use the design to demonstrate the logic of the operation and see if it fits your mind.

Need to outsource regular reporting work progress, if there is any problem, must communicate as soon as possible. This communication can not be dragged, or the problem will accumulate more and more.

In addition, the results of communication must be preserved in the form of documentation, and confirmed by email to both parties.

3. Phased delivery

This is what I think is the most important safeguard in the process of outsourcing the app. It is in the development process, divided into several stages of delivery, rather than a one-time development to deliver, so the risk is too great.

The whole process is as follows:

(1) The UI interface design and prototype first confirmed

(2) after determining (1), dividing the function module

(3) Each functional module of the front and rear end are all entrusted to the outsourcing company, the acceptance of strict checks. The business logic of the app needs the entrepreneur to check, the performance outside, the conditional on the professional testing team, no conditions, to get their own.

(4) Each completion of a module, will outsource the company to provide code, but also design draft, the entire system architecture diagram, deployment documentation, as well as database design documents. When it's time to start, it's possible that the other party has already made this up, but in the process of development, these designs may be adjusted, so each phase is delivered once.
