About Fun Services
Fun Services is a nationwide group known for helping with fundraising and organizing events. They started in 1968 and have grown to offer a wide range of services for schools, businesses, and community groups.
Fun Services collaborated with Imaginovation to build an advanced POS/Cash Register app compatible with iOS and Android, offering sophisticated features.
The Challenge
Fun Services faced a major limitation with their existing POS system, which was only functional on Android tablets. This restriction hindered accessibility and the efficiency of administrative processes, as all data had to be locally loaded onto these tablets.
The primary challenge was to develop a POS/Cash Register app that works across all iOS and Android devices and streamlines the data upload process, catering to the needs of COFRS members, Fun Services' location owners, and school volunteers who utilize the system.
Our Strategy
Our strategy for Fun Services was dedicated to developing a POS/Cash Register app tailored for seamless use on both iOS and Android devices. This entailed specific phases, each targeting key functionality and cross-platform compatibility aspects.
Phase 1
Discovery
Our initial step involved examining Fun Services' current POS system, confined to Android tablets, to identify how to expand its reach and improve data handling.
Phase 2
Planning
After analyzing the existing system and client requirements, we crafted a detailed project plan and roadmap. This phase outlined the steps to transform the POS system into a more accessible, efficient solution, ensuring alignment with Fun Services' specific needs and goals.
Phase 3
Design
Our team prioritized designing an intuitive interface, ensuring compatibility and functionality on both iOS and Android platforms, enhancing the user experience beyond the current system's capabilities.
Phase 4
Development
The development phase involved integrating advanced features to enhance administrative efficiency. This included creating more streamlined data uploading solutions and ensuring seamless operation across various devices.
Phase 5
Testing & Launch
We rigorously tested the app for quality assurance, ensuring optimal platform functionality. The app was launched after successful validation, ready for seamless user interaction.
