We use Agile-focused delivery to create high-performing solutions
We follow battle-tested Agile frameworks like Scrum or Kanban to deliver high-performing solutions that bring real business value to our clients. We combine just the right amount of digital strategy and consulting, UX design, development & technology utilizing a blended Agile Project Management practices that have been refined over decades of experience. With a dedicated Project Manager, you get an eCommerce quarterback who will work tirelessly for your success.
At 2MD, we believe delivery works best when we have a true partnership with our clients. We do this by requesting that a client representative (Product Owner) is nominated to join the delivery team and work in tandem with us. This allows you, as the client, to experience the delivery process first hand and gives you comfort that we’re focusing on the right things.
We follow Agile frameworks like Scrum and lean software development to deliver high-performing solutions that bring real business value to our clients. Agile Project Management practices support our teams in their constant striving for quality.
Teaming up with an Agile software development team is a smart move. Why? Because Agile methods bring fantastic results. Almost 1 in 4 of the highest performing companies completed projects with Agile or hybrid approaches. (Project Management Institute, 2018).
Our process
Well thought discovery path and execution
1. Initiating
ANALYSIS > PROPOSAL > KICKOFF
This is the process of identifying how we can grow your company business. We develop a business case centered around ROI and a broad project plan to execute against those goals.
2. Planning
ARCHITECTURE > CONTENT CREATION > UX DESIGN > SITE SPECS > UI DESIGN
Planning is a mobile-first process of laying out the scope, establishing approach, process, standards, schedule, and budget for how we'll achieve the business case developed in Initiating.
3. Executing
DEVELOPMENT | USER ACCEPTANCE TESTING (UAT) | QA TESTING
Executing is the process of "doing". The goal of Executing is to create and deliver the product outlined in the Planning phases Production Plan. Additionally: QA, QC, validating User Stories, executing regression tests, raising defects.
4. Controlling + Monitoring
PROJECT METRICS | STATUS REPORTS | QA
Controlling and Monitoring is done in parallel with Executing. This is the process of managing scope, schedule, and budget as outlined in Planning.
5. Launch
HOSTING > DEPLOYMENT > CHECKLISTS > LAUNCH
The launch is all about pushing the work done in Executing to another environment (staging, live, or both).
