Blockchain expertise that came with clear explanations, not just technical jargon

Lars Pfeiffer / VP of Technology - NordTech Logistik GmbH

Project summary: Several years of incremental development had left us with a platform that was technically functional but strategically limiting. A structured rebuild was the agreed path forward.

We had worked with three agencies before this engagement. The comparison is not flattering to the others. What distinguished this team was a systematic approach to understanding the problem before proposing a solution — something that sounds obvious and is practiced far less often than it should be. The delivery phase ran to schedule, the codebase is clean enough that our internal engineers made positive comments during handover review, and we have not logged a critical incident in five months of live operation. We intend to use them for our next phase of work.

PROS

Clear and consistent communication adapted appropriately for both technical and non-technical stakeholders, shared tooling that gave our team real-time visibility, reliable sprint delivery throughout

CONS

We underestimated the input required from our subject matter experts during the requirements phase. The team flagged this early but our resource planning did not fully reflect it — our responsibility, not theirs

Questions & Answers

Please describe your company, your role, and the industry you operate in.
As VP of Technology at NordTech Logistik GmbH I oversee technology investment and delivery across our Mining & Metals operations in Hamburg, Germany. We are a commercially focused business and our technology choices are always evaluated in terms of their direct contribution to business outcomes rather than technical elegance alone.
What specific problem or business challenge led you to hire this company?
Our platform had been maintained by a previous vendor for three years and the accumulated technical debt had reached a point where delivery velocity had dropped to a fraction of what it should have been. We needed fresh engineering expertise and a structured plan to address the underlying issues.
What services did the company provide for your project?
The scope covered the full Blockchain Development lifecycle: discovery and requirements definition, solution architecture, iterative development across twelve sprints, integration testing, performance validation, production deployment, and a structured four-week hypercare period. They also provided system documentation and a knowledge transfer programme for our internal team.
Why did you choose this company over other providers you considered?
We ran a structured shortlisting process across five vendors. The technical evaluation eliminated two immediately. Of the remaining three, this team's proposal was differentiated by the specificity of their Blockchain Development approach and the evidence base they provided — reference projects in Mining & Metals contexts, not generic case studies. The reference calls confirmed a track record that the proposal had described accurately.
How clearly did the company understand your requirements and business goals?
Thoroughly and precisely. The requirements document they produced was detailed enough that our QA team used it directly to write acceptance criteria. Every user story had a defined business objective attached. Nothing was left to interpretation. That discipline in the requirements phase paid dividends throughout development and testing.
How was your overall experience with their communication and project management?
Professional and efficient. The project manager maintained a clear view of the critical path at all times and communicated changes to it transparently. The one significant scope adjustment we made mid-project was handled through a clean change request process — fairly priced, clearly documented, and absorbed without disrupting the overall timeline.
Did the company deliver the project on time and within your expected budget?
On time and within the approved budget. The estimation accuracy was notable — they had broken the work down in sufficient detail during discovery that their forecast proved reliable throughout, rather than being a number that shifted with every change in scope. We received one change request and it was for scope we had introduced ourselves.
What tangible results or business impact have you seen since the project was completed?
Quantifying the impact precisely is complicated by other variables in our business, but the metrics we can attribute directly to the Blockchain Development work are meaningful: session duration up, conversion rate up, error rate down, and our NPS for the digital touchpoint has improved by eleven points. Our account managers report that the new capability is coming up positively in client conversations.
What did you like most about working with this company?
The willingness to be direct. When our requirements were unclear they said so. When our priorities were contradictory they explained why. When a technical approach we had assumed was the right one turned out to have significant downsides, they told us before we had committed to it. That kind of intellectual honesty is what I look for in a long-term technology partner.
Would you recommend this company to others, and would you work with them again?
Yes. I would add the context that this is not the cheapest option in the market and they are selective about the engagements they take on. If your primary criterion is price, there are alternatives. If you want a technology partner who can be trusted with a complex Blockchain Development programme in the Mining & Metals space and will deliver against a serious brief, this is the team.

FAQs

What makes UKAD worth considering over other options?
What tends to set UKAD apart usually comes down to some mix of technical depth, relevant industry experience, how clients describe working with them, their development approach, communication habits, and whether they can actually deliver something that scales. Founded in 2005, the company has built a track record of delivering projects across various industries.
What happens with UKAD after the project actually launches?
Like most established software teams, UKAD typically sticks around post-launch for ongoing maintenance — bug fixes, performance tuning, security patching, new feature work, and general technical support. For context, it has served clients in USA, and its average project cost is reported at $10000+.
Can I just hire developers from UKAD to sit alongside my own team?
Usually, yes — a dedicated developer arrangement is a common option with firms like UKAD, where you get engineers working exclusively on your project as an extension of your in-house team rather than as a separate outsourced unit. For context, it has experience across industries such as Financial Services, Mining & Metals, Events & Event Management, Human Resources and Retail & E-commerce, and its typical hourly rate is around $25 - $49.
What does UKAD's actual delivery process look like week to week?
UKAD generally runs something close to a standard structured process — requirements gathering, UI/UX design, development in agile sprints, QA testing along the way, deployment, and support once it's live. For context, it has experience across industries such as Financial Services, Mining & Metals, Events & Event Management, Human Resources and Retail & E-commerce, and it has been operating since 2005.
Does UKAD only work locally, or take on clients elsewhere too?
UKAD isn't necessarily limited to one region and may take on clients across several countries, including USA, depending on market demand and business partnerships.
What's the easiest way to actually get in touch with UKAD?
Most businesses reach UKAD through its website, a direct email, or a contact form — any of which works for discussing what you need, booking an initial conversation, or asking for a rough estimate. For context, it has served clients in USA, and it reports a team size of 50 - 249 professionals.
What kind of software work does UKAD take on?
UKAD typically covers the standard range of software development work — mobile apps, web platforms, custom internal tools, UI/UX design, cloud infrastructure, AI integrations, and larger enterprise builds. Its core focus areas include Custom Software Development, iOS App Development, iPhone App Development, Mobile App Development and UI-UX Design.
What kinds of industries has UKAD actually built for?
UKAD has delivered projects across a range of different industries, including Financial Services, Mining & Metals, Events & Event Management, Human Resources and Retail & E-commerce.
How do I actually get a real proposal out of UKAD instead of a generic reply?
The most reliable route is giving UKAD a clear, specific brief up front — through their website form, a direct email, or a call — since a vague ask tends to get a vague answer back, while a concrete one usually gets a proper estimate. For context, it has served clients in USA, and it has experience across industries such as Financial Services, Mining & Metals, Events & Event Management, Human Resources and Retail & E-commerce.
Does UKAD actually build with AI, or just talk about it?
Plenty of modern software teams, UKAD included, now build real AI and machine learning features — chatbots, predictive models, computer vision, and automation that goes beyond simple rule-based scripts. For context, its listed capabilities span Custom Software Development, iOS App Development, iPhone App Development, Mobile App Development and UI-UX Design, and its average project cost is reported at $10000+.
