Discovery workshop with Bytes Technolab
The Discovery Process at Bytes Technolab is ultimately an actual Workshop in sessions, where our expert Business Analysts and Design Team will collaborate with you.
Choosing a discovery workshop depends mainly upon the various factors of the project such as size, complexity, platforms, or lack of any technical knowledge in the software app development domain.
We believe that market launch does not guarantee success. To be successful, you must have a roadmap designed that caters to the changes your product needs as you will continuously learn from your market or user needs. And guess what? Discovery workshop covers it all. It includes effective sharing of detailed information on business ideas, long-term vision, expectations, requirements, existing challenges, target users, etc.
What exactly you would get from discovery workshop?
We promise to keep YOU at the center of everything we do here at Bytes Technolab. And nothing else will make us happier than building and delivering you a great software product that meets your expectations and has tremendous potential to bring success to you.
Better Project Awareness
Sharing business ideas, long-term vision, expectations, requirements, existing challenges, target users, etc. This helps in defining the project milestones while making you aware of the Agile methodology for successful product development.
Well-defined Product Strategy
We believe that launching a product into the market does not guarantee success. To be successful, you must have a roadmap designed that caters to the changes your product needs. This is a better approach for changes with evolving market trends.
Scalable App Architecture
The discovery workshop is about designing together with UI/UX stakeholders. All the bits and pieces collected and shared among them are taken into consideration to design a holistic application architecture. This will be feasible and scalable design.
Faster Development at Low Cost
Close collaboration eliminates the chances of many iterations at the end of the development that may occur due to misunderstandings or lack of information. The workshop ensures an affordable way to achieve a faster development & launch.
Visual Presentation of Your Idea
UI/UX designers collaborate to transform your idea to design prototype via design sprints. Our user-focused methodology & prototype help us validate the business ideas quickly and resolve iterations even before the development starts.
Project Documentation
Based on the gathered data & analysis, our business analysts will make assumptions and prepare documentation that will consist of Use Cases, Mind-mapping, and Flow Diagrams. This will help us to build the foundation of success for your project.
Discovery Process
We firmly believe that Discovery Process/Workshop is one of the cornerstones in designing, building, and delivering a successful software application. Believe it or not but it proves to be a solid foundation at the kickstart of any project where innovative ideas and critical information are shared to build a feasible, user-centric, and scalable software solution.
Discover and Devise
We carry out problem areas in your system through comprehensive research of your business, industry trends, app user needs to brainstorm and ideate viable solutions.
Mind Mapping & Information Architecture
We perform A/B testing and create mind maps in order to design successful information architecture. It involves how information is stored, displayed, and accessed on your site by users.
Wireframes Design and Review
Being a part of the consolidated discovery process, the designers will use their knowledge, the results of the workshop, and the structure of IA to build wire frames in order to display to you and ask for feedback.
Prototype Design & Demo
Once the wireframe iterations recommended by you (if any) will be made, the team will design a prototype, revealing how the website or app will look leveraging UI/UX functionality testing before the final design.
Why discovery workshop is a must for you?
Your app has been launched and it has been a few months already in the market. You invested the major portion of your working capital into the web app or mobile app development, however, the stats show that users are not enjoying your app as you expected. Some capital you spent in marketing and post-launch analysis to understand user behavior.
What if redesign or redevelopment is inevitable and you are running out of money to get it done? This has happened with countless business owners.
At this moment, you’d think that it’d be better of you to have spent a little on Discovery Workshop. That could have been a cost-saving and effective option in the long run.
Discovery workshop saves you from
Underestimating project implementation costs
You should not assume that since your solution (app idea) seems straightforward, the development of it will also be the same. This is the reason behind the failure of many development projects that remain unfinished.
Launching a product with less or no potential
Sometimes, having enough funds is not sufficient. Digital products and mobile apps usually suffer from a lack of users when the ideas are not validated upfront. Discovery workshop helps us to visualize and specify your ideas to suggest a way to validate them via an MVP (Minimum Viable Product) or a Prototype.
Funding on product that does not meet user needs
This is perhaps the most unwanted reason to fail. It would be a disaster if you find out post-development stage that your Android or iOS app or software is not solving users’ needs. Opting for a discovery workshop will eliminate this possibility in the first place.

Frequently Asked Questions
No. You’ll be required to notify us as per the contractual agreement before the said period as mentioned in the contract. You cannot terminate the engagement within the first month.
Yes, we do have that option for special skills like Graphic designer, UI/UX Designer, Project Manager. The hired developers will be working on your project for a consecutive 4-hour window every day, for 5 days a week, during the length of the engagement period.
Precisely. The team working on your project fills in a DAILY report in our internal system (as shown above in this presentation). They will submit a copy of the same on a weekly basis to you to keep a record of the efforts spent. Moreover, they will put updates over basecamp, where you can view a summary of tasks executed with other details.
The developers work from our own Development Center based out of India. They work for 8 hours a day and can be available to work easily in any slot between 9:00 AM to 9:00 PM Indian Time (+5:30GMT). It is totally fine if you need a meeting in a week for discussion during your time zone. However, if you require them to work dedicatedly during your timezone only, they can certainly be made available. In such cases, you have to pay a nominal additional fee.
We require that anybody in our company who wishes to leave us, notify their immediate supervisor, delivery head, and the HR team at least 2 months in advance. When they resign from their jobs and we accept their resignations, we immediately plan to switch the resource and initiate a handover process along with knowledge transfer (KT) to the new (replacing) developer. Before leaving the company, the outgoing developer signs EXIT NDA with Bytes Technolab, where they undersign the confidentiality and non-compete, non-sharing terms. They also hand over all credentials and access and communication rights back to the relevant authorities at Bytes Technolab before leaving.
Certainly. We will share our holiday calendar upon initiation process and also keep you informed a week in advance for any upcoming public holiday.
Absolutely. This is totally possible. We can arrange for the developer(s) to visit your country and stay there to work with your team for a defined period. In such cases, you have to bear the costs of Visa, travel, accommodation, and per diem expenses on top of their monthly fees.
We firmly believe it is our responsibility. However, something that’s within our reach or access, we can certainly chime in and help you to fix the issue even before it arises. However, in certain cases where clients prefer to leave a few parts of the project to their own teams. In such cases, we can’t do much. However, we certainly can give you insights, guide you, or recommend a solution. To be able to "FIX" the existing problem itself, we need to have your permission along with the access.
No. They don’t rely 100% on you. Most of the time and more often than not, they’ll find out the solution by seeking advice, consultation, and technical help from their peers, supervisors, and experienced members within the team.
You shall opt for the dedicated development team for reasons such as: • The scope is defined very briefly and the requirements are very likely to change throughout the project. • Can define clear short-term milestones - depending on the working model chosen (i.e. Agile or Waterfall). • Works best when you're ready to go into multiple iterations for a given feature and fine-tune it by inspecting all the possible aspects. • When you have more time to spend with your hired development team, by sharing clear objectives and goals so that they are always in sync with you.
