Enterprise Mobile App Development
We plan, build and support mobile apps that stand up to enterprise security, scale and lifecycle demands. From platform choice to store release and ongoing maintenance.
Most mobile projects fail on the decisions made before a line of code is written: platform strategy, integration with existing systems, and how the app will be secured, distributed and maintained for years. We work with engineering leaders to make those calls deliberately, then deliver against them. The result is a mobile programme that fits your architecture and your operating model, not a one-off build you have to rescue later.
One codebase
where cross-platform fits, cutting duplicated effort across iOS and Android
Faster releases
through automated build, signing and store distribution pipelines
Lower rework
by settling platform and integration decisions before build starts
Native or cross-platform: a decision, not a default
The right platform choice depends on your team, your device fleet, and how much of the app is UI versus deep OS integration. We assess the trade-offs honestly rather than defaulting to whatever we happen to prefer. Where a single codebase makes sense we reach for Flutter; where an app lives or dies on platform-specific capability we build native.
- Flutter for shared UI, fast iteration and lower long-term maintenance
- Native Kotlin or Swift where deep OS, hardware or performance access matters
- Hybrid approaches where a native module sits inside a cross-platform shell
- A clear rationale documented so future teams understand the choice
Built for enterprise integration and security
Enterprise apps rarely stand alone. They authenticate against your identity provider, talk to internal APIs, and handle data that carries compliance obligations. We design for SSO, secure storage, certificate pinning and offline behaviour from the start, and we treat your backend and API contracts as first-class parts of the delivery.
- SSO and OAuth with your existing identity provider
- Secure credential and token storage, plus data-at-rest encryption
- Offline-first patterns and reliable sync for field workforces
- API and backend design aligned to the app, not bolted on afterwards
Distribution, MDM and the full lifecycle
Shipping to a store is the easy part. We plan for staged rollout, managed distribution through your MDM, and the release cadence that keeps an app healthy across OS updates and device churn. We also set up the CI/CD, crash reporting and analytics you need to run the app as a product rather than a project.
- Public store release or private enterprise distribution via MDM
- Automated build, signing and release pipelines
- Crash reporting, analytics and performance monitoring
- Maintenance plans that track OS deprecations before they bite
How we engage
We can lead a greenfield build, embed alongside your engineers, or take over an app that has drifted into disrepair. Engagements usually start with a short discovery to pin down platform strategy, architecture and delivery risks before committing to a build plan. From there we work in short iterations with working software you can see and test.
Frequently asked questions
- Should we build native or cross-platform?
- It depends on how much of your app is standard UI versus deep OS or hardware integration, and how large your mobile team is. Cross-platform with Flutter suits most business apps and reduces long-term maintenance, while native is worth the extra cost where performance or platform-specific features are central. We make this call with you during discovery rather than assuming a default.
- Can you distribute privately to staff rather than through the public app stores?
- Yes. We support enterprise distribution through your MDM or EMM platform, including managed configuration, per-app VPN and device-based access. This keeps internal apps off the public stores while still giving you controlled rollout, versioning and remote management across your fleet.
- Will you maintain the app after launch, or hand it over?
- Either. Some clients want an ongoing support and maintenance arrangement covering OS updates, security patches and enhancements; others want a clean handover to their own team. We document architecture and set up CI/CD and monitoring so the app is maintainable regardless of who owns it next.
