WHAT WE OFFER
According to statistics, about 50 percent of software projects have serious discrepancies between users' expectations and reality. Many projects begin with great ideas and clear business goals. However, unfortunately, they do not always succeed.
Why? The most common reasons are insufficient data that lead to errors with estimates and planning, as well as the lack of a comprehensive vision of what exactly the product should be and the requirements it should meet. Blackthorn Vision offers a comprehensive range of Business Analysis Services to ensure you have the best business outcome for your needs with the given resources.
Being the “glue” between your business and a development team, our business analysts help you with product ideation, requirements management, workflow optimizations, communication, documentation, and, finally, an effective transformation of your business goals into a functional design. It results in the superior quality of further technical implementation and overall project success
OUR CORE BUSINESS ANALYSIS SERVICES
Requirements definition and clarification
The Discovery Phase helps outline correct requirements. It is of major importance as they are the backbone of future project success. It consists of four stages:
- Industry and competitor investigation
- Technical research
- Analysis
- Specification
User interface design
Identifying the most efficient user flow patterns is necessary for creating a universally intuitive interface. It includes:
- Information architecture
- Wireframes of main pages
- Reports
Documentation and estimation
The Requirements Specification is the summary document with all the findings of the Business Analysis. It serves as a solid foundation for your decision-making and covers the core aspects of the project:
- Software requirements analysis
- Project risk assessment
- The list of features
- Mockups
- Implementation budget and deadline
Prototyping and proof-of-concept
At this stage, we evaluate the business potential of the future product against the client’s expectations. For maximum clarity, we create:
- UI prototype
- System prototype
- Detailed mockups
