App Development

Whether you want to order a takeaway or buy a new pair of shoes, there is now an app for everything you need. Smartphone penetration that provides access to apps, products, and services at a click of a finger is at an all-time high and growing, even in developing countries. Consumers are therefore expecting an app to be available for every conceivable product and service as mobile internet usage takes over the traditional desktop access.

‘The number of hours spent on the internet continues to increase every year, but the split between desktop and mobile is becoming more and more pronounced.’

According to eMarketer, adult smartphone users spend about 4 hours per day using mobile internet, and 88% of that time is spent in mobile apps, rather than a browser. This speaks to the importance of companies not only optimizing their websites for mobile, but creating custom, responsive apps too.

Whether you have a need for a native app that is central to your business service delivery or simply want to extend your business services via another channel, we will work with you from the onset through our visually driven approach to advise you on your needs. Start by using our Exploratory Lab Service to develop a prototype app before committing to a full build.

Product Development

Do you have an idea for a product that can solve a real life problem? Test the idea with the help of our eco system of in house consultants and partners. Use our Exploratory Lab Service to develop a prototype first, taking a phased approach to the concept development.

API Development

There is a shift within modern organisations where IT spend is no longer just seen as a backend cost of doing business. IT products and copyrights are treated as core assets in many scenarios and in some cases, the IT products used for internal business support are also monetized.

APIs (Application Programming Interface) are modular pieces of programs providing a web service whereby each module can be re-used and combined with other APIs to provide different functional services. The architectural pattern used to build IT systems based on reusable silo components (APIs) via API calls is called Micro Service Design.

If you are looking to build APIs whether in silo for publishing and monetizing or as a set of APIs for a system based on Micro Services Design, BluePi solutions can help you navigate the opportunities and steps required to get there. Alternatively, if you are simply looking to ramp up your existing team of API developers, we can help you add with rapid deployment of experienced resources.
