Choose a development studio by how it investigates your workflow, explains trade-offs and makes delivery reviewable. A technology list or an impressive demo is insufficient evidence that the team can maintain your particular product.
Ask for evidence that fits your project
| Decision | Evidence to request | What to confirm |
|---|---|---|
| Relevant experience | A verifiable project or a clearly labeled reference architecture | The studio's actual role and permission to share the work |
| Technical discovery | Questions about users, permissions, data and integrations | Assumptions are recorded before the quote |
| Progress review | Demonstration and acceptance process | You can inspect a working workflow at agreed milestones |
| Ownership | Repository and account handover terms | Your organization controls code, data and production accounts |
Compare a bounded task
Give candidates the same redacted workflow and ask for a proposed first release, dependencies, risks and acceptance steps. Evaluate whether the team notices exceptions and explains what must be learned before estimating. A paid discovery or small milestone can be useful when the existing system is uncertain.
Agree how problems are handled
Define the approval contact, issue reporting channel, release owner, rollback plan and maintenance scope. Clarify the difference between a defect against accepted scope and a new request. Confirm who maintains third-party subscriptions and handles platform policy changes.
Questions before signing
- Can another developer build and deploy from the delivered notes?
- How will private data and production access be limited?
- Which tests demonstrate the core workflow and denied-access behavior?
- Which costs recur after delivery, and what support is excluded?
- What happens if a required API or store approval is unavailable?
Review Manboo's service scope and send the workflow you want reviewed. Any reference architecture should be treated as a design example until project-specific implementation evidence is available.
