Understand your goals and who needs to be involved.<\/strong><\/p><p>The first step of discovery will be to identify the &#8220;Why?&#8221;. Why are we developing this app? Who are we developing it for? And who will need to be involved in developing the solution?<\/p><p>Key activities:<\/p><ul><li><em>Stakeholder Interviews<\/em><\/li><li><em>Business Goals Alignment<\/em><\/li><li><em>Mapping of Regulatory Requirements (e.g. Open Banking, KYC\/AML)<\/em><\/li><\/ul><p><strong>Outcome:<\/strong> A shared understanding of what our goal looks like for our users, the business and Regulators.<\/p><p><strong>2. Running Workshops to discover the right questions.<\/strong><\/p><p>During the second step of discovery, we will run a workshop with both your team and our team, where we will explore:<\/p><ul><li><em>Users Target Journey (onboarding, payment, reports)<\/em><\/li><li><em>What are the limitations\/gaps of current systems?<\/em><\/li><li><em>Is our goal a Minimum Viable Product or do we have a longer term vision?<\/em><\/li><li><em>What are the integration and compliance requirements?<\/em><\/li><\/ul><p>Lean Inception and\/or Event Storming Techniques will often be used in the USA to derive real-world feedback from stakeholders.<\/p><p><strong>Outcome:<\/strong> Clarity for the Feature Scope, Dependencies and Red Flags, before any code is written.<\/p><p><strong>3. Define User Stories and Acceptance Criteria<\/strong><\/p><p>Once we have goals and flows completed, we create user stories from these insights, which are essentially small and testable units of value. Each user story has corresponding acceptance criteria to eliminate ambiguity.<\/p><p>Depending on how complex your fintech offering is, we normally identify between 30 and 80 core user stories.<\/p><p><strong>The outcome<\/strong> is a prioritized backlog that both your product and engineering teams can rely upon.<\/p><p><strong>4. Drafting Technical Architecture and Integrations<\/strong><\/p><p>We create a high-level outline of your architecture to ensure that it meets 3 criteria:<\/p><ul><li><em>Skalowalno\u015b\u0107<\/em><\/li><li><em>Security &amp; Compliance<\/em><\/li><li><em>Integrations.<\/em><\/li><\/ul><p>For example, if your organization is creating a mobile banking application, we will identify a mobile-first architecture and components; if the project is establishing a B2B payment gateway, we will define your application programming interfaces.<\/p><p><strong>The outcome<\/strong> is a foundation of technology that can accommodate your real-world goals and constraints.<\/p><p><strong>5. Risk register<\/strong><\/p><p>We believe about visible, not surprise, risks. Therefore, throughout discovery, we have a shared risk register where we log:<\/p><ul><li><em>Possible regulatory barriers<\/em><\/li><li><em>Uncertain requirements<\/em><\/li><li><em>Dependence on any third-party systems<\/em><\/li><li><em>Assumptions that will require confirmation<\/em><\/li><\/ul><p><strong>Outcome:<\/strong> Everyone continues to be aligned regarding risks and making conscious trade-offs as opposed to making them by accident.<\/p><p><strong>6.
