Implementing a new mobile application initiative requires a deep understanding of the platforms, devices, and user experiences that are unique to the mobile environment. It’s a new ball game. You wouldn’t roll out a new company-wide software solution without consulting IT experts. Similarly, you wouldn’t make a foray into print media without a specialized print design firm. When your company goes mobile, you need to bring in the mobile experts.
Goal-Oriented Implementation
Whether you’re deploying an internal iPhone application reporting tool to 5000 employees or releasing a consumer-facing iPad purchasing portal, it’s critical to factor the intended audience in the design. Design paradigms vary across mobile platforms, and the approach you take to maximize user adoption will depend on both the category of the solution and the environment in which it is launched.
