Project leadership for store apps

Companies and organisations commissioning a native iOS or Android app that want independent representation of their interests towards the agency.

Updated: 2026-11

In short

If your project really needs a native store app, we take on the parts where such projects most often fail: an IREB requirements catalogue, selection of the development partner, control of budget and scope, acceptance and publication in the stores. We do not offer native development ourselves, which keeps our steering independent.

Store app projects often start directly with an agency quote. Requirements then emerge during the project, and every clarification becomes a change request. Without own experience of app projects, quotes are hard to compare and progress is hard to judge.

Independent project leadership restores balance: clear requirements before award, comparable quotes, traceable acceptance.

What you get

Requirements catalogue

Functional and non-functional requirements following IREB, with acceptance criteria as the basis for quotes and acceptance.

Partner selection

Tender or structured request, evaluation of quotes against defined criteria, contract basis.

Project control

Planning, status reports, change management and risk management towards the development partner.

Acceptance and publication

Testing against acceptance criteria, support through store review and publication.

How it runs

  1. 01

    Requirements

    Elicit goals, users and features, create the catalogue with acceptance criteria.

  2. 02

    Award

    Approach partners, evaluate quotes, prepare the contract.

  3. 03

    Control

    Accompany delivery, review interim versions, decide changes in an orderly way.

  4. 04

    Closure

    Acceptance, store publication and handover to operations and further development.

Price framing

Requirements and award phase with fixed scope; project leadership during delivery as a workload over the project duration.

Indicative, not a binding quote — the frame is confirmed during scoping.

FAQ

Why don’t you build the app yourselves?

Native development is not our core business, and we do not claim it is. That is precisely why we have no interest in making the scope bigger than necessary.

Can you prepare public tenders too?

Yes. For contracting authorities we write specifications with suitability and award criteria; the question of prior involvement is clarified before the assignment.

Who owns the code in the end?

We regulate that in the contract with the development partner, usually in your favour, with handover of code and access.
