In the vibrant tech scene of Liverpool, one Software Development Studio stands out, lighting up ideas and transforming them into real-world solutions: Citrus Suite. Recognised by industry titans such as Nicola Mendelsohn (Facebook’s VP for EMEA), Saul Klein (Lovefilm, Seedcamp), and Rory Cellan-Jones (BBC’s technology correspondent), our expertise lies in shaping your vision into tangible, effective digital products.
At Citrus Suite, we’re no strangers to the concept of Minimum Viable Product (MVP) development. Whether it’s for a daring startup or an established business looking to innovate, we’re adept at refining ideas into MVPs – workable solutions with enough features to impress early users and provide valuable feedback for future plans.
Our team, based in our Liverpool studio, designs, develops, and engineers these MVPs from scratch. We handle the tech so that you can concentrate on the business proposition, saving you the cost and time of recruiting a software team.
Creating an MVP is more than just coding – it’s a careful, strategic process. We begin by identifying the customer need and assessing the market opportunity. This understanding allows us to specify the product’s goals, design the user experience, and ultimately, build the solution.
But we don’t stop at building. We help you craft your launch plans and define your success criteria, asking those hard questions that put your product’s potential into perspective.
An MVP is an efficient way to evaluate an idea’s potential as a successful product. Is your product effective? How will you reach your customers? Does your market proposition stand up to scrutiny? An MVP helps you answer these questions, providing valuable insights to guide your future plans.
The principle of an MVP lies in offering value from the get-go, albeit with a basic set of features. Once released, user feedback is crucial for informing future updates, ensuring you retain early adopters while enhancing your user base. Each iteration, each added feature, should offer an improved solution, highlighting the product’s business potential.
Our portfolio is peppered with success stories, like the LocumTap / Patchwork Health platform we developed for managing temporary staffing requirements in NHS hospitals. Born as an MVP, the platform was initially trialled in a few departments at Chelsea Westminster Hospital before expanding to other departments and hospitals. LocumTap streamlined locum usage in the NHS using cloud, automation, and analytics. The company has raised a total of £25 million to date, including a recent fundraising round of £20 million.
