According to Gartner research, one of the four recommended practices for companies developing their mobile strategy is to "Adopt a mixed-sourcing approach", selecting to outsource mobile applications that can “…efficiently handled by an outsourced third party experienced in mobile app development.”
More people now own mobile phones than own credit cards, so almost every business is tailoring a mobile strategy. By the end of 2017, market demand for mobile app development services will grow at least five times faster than internal IT organizations' capacity to deliver them, according to Gartner, Inc. Gartner forecasts mobile phone sales will reach 2.1 billion units by 2019, which will fuel demand for apps in the enterprise that meet the high performance and usability of consumer applications. Your mobile development partner needs to understand the different challenges that emerge when developing mobile applications, and they should provide you with the resources that can effectively marshal a mobile applications development effort in a way that alleviates them from the many risks that can cause mobile development projects to go from great idea, to poor execution.
"Organizations increasingly find it difficult to be proactive against competitive pressures, which is resulting in their mobile apps becoming tactical, rather than strategic," said Gartner’s Mr. Leow. "We're seeing demand for mobile apps outstrip available development capacity, making quick creation of apps even more challenging. Mobile strategists must use tools and techniques that match the increase in mobile app needs within their organizations."
