Our marketplace development process.

STEP 1
Initial engagement

Together, we explore your business concept and create a tailored marketplace portal development strategy. We value transparency and ensure you know what to expect, providing clear communication and detailed planning to set a strong foundation for the project.

STEP 2
Discovery phase

During this phase of building a marketplace, our team conducts a thorough analysis of your requirements. We do this by running market research, gathering detailed specifications, and identifying key challenges and opportunities.

STEP 3
Project setup

Once we agree on the details, it’s time to move on to the project setup phase. Here, we define the project scope, set up project management tools, allocate resources, and create a detailed project plan with timelines and milestones.

STEP 4
Design

When we have a clear understanding of the project requirements, we move on to the design phase. Our designers and architects create wireframes, prototypes, and detailed design documents, taking user experience (UX) and user interface (UI) design into account.

STEP 5
Development

At this stage, we build a marketplace. Our developers follow agile methodologies and work in iterative sprints to build and integrate features. We also conduct regular updates and reviews with stakeholders to make sure that the project stays on track and aligns with the initial vision.

STEP 6
Quality assurance

During the quality assurance (QA) phase, we test the product to identify and fix bugs and other issues. Our QA team uses automated and manual testing techniques to deliver a solution that’s reliable and full-functioning.

STEP 7
Product release

After thorough testing and validation, we move to the product release phase. The Brights team deploys the solution to the production environment to ensure a smooth transition with minimal disruption. Then, we monitor the release to address any immediate issues that may appear.

STEP 8
Maintenance and support

Our marketplace development company provides maintenance and support services after the launch, making sure your platform remains up-to-date, secure, and high-performing. Our support team is available to help you with any troubles, implement updates, and add new features as needed.
