Engagement model

Build: from idea to production

Build is Luciérnaga Labs’ engagement model for companies that need a new software product: an MVP, a custom application, a mobile product or enterprise software. A small team of experienced engineers takes it from discovery to production, with scope, milestones and success criteria agreed up front. We work with clients in Colombia and, remotely, around the world.

Who is Build for?

Businesses that need a new software product or application, from a first version that tests an idea to a platform that will run part of the company.

What does a Build engagement include?

  • Discovery and scoping
  • Architecture and user experience
  • Iterative development in short, visible releases
  • Testing for functionality, reliability, security and performance
  • Deployment and monitoring in production
  • Documentation and handover

What happens after launch?

Either we hand the product over with documentation, or we keep evolving it under the Partner model. Many products start as Build and continue as Partner.
