Product Engineering Services Life Cycle
Software product engineering is a complex process that requires deep technical, managerial, and communicative expertise. PES life cycle consists of 6 phases:
Idea conceptualization
An engineering service provider conceptualizes and validates your idea for a product. Product engineering consulting helps us define the viability of your idea. If the idea is viable, we document the product specifications, scope, and requirements and move to the second stage. If not, we work on idea improvement and adjustment to ensure product success.
Product design
Once we validate the idea for your solution together with our team and stakeholders and agreed upon the budget, team composition, and time frames, the product development team moves to product design. We create a plan for the technical and functional architecture of your solution and build a prototype of the user interface.
Development process
This stage of the product development cycle forms the core of project engineering services. At this step, a product development engineer builds a product using a specific methodology. In our work, we stick to the Agile product development cycle because of the numerous benefits that this approach offers.
Testing and quality assurance
Your solution will go through multiple quality checks to ensure that it is bug-free, user-friendly, and performant. In case any faults are detected, we eliminate them and launch the user acceptance testing phase again.
Product release
After product development teams make sure that a product is flawless, we release it into the market. We analyze how the piece of software works in real life, how users interact with the solution, and what should be done to make it better.
Support and maintenance
After your product goes live, our cooperation continues. As an engineering service company, Forbytes offers support and maintenance to our clients. We update your product, introduce new features per your request, and keep improving its performance.

FAQ
What's the difference between software product engineering and traditional software development?
In fact, we use these terms interchangeably. But there’s a slight difference between them. Vendors are moving away from the term software development as it is quite narrower than product engineering. Traditional software development is the development of enterprise software. As a rule, such software is used in-house by employees.
Meantime, product engineering development is building commercial products targeted at a public audience. The goal of software product engineering services is to help a company raise profit from the product, reach their business goals, and earn recognition in the market. Product engineering services are more consistent and allow you to get a software product as well as commercial benefits from it.
What's the difference between a software developer and a product engineer?
Technically, these terms mean the same. Both a product engineer and a software developer build engineering solutions and products. But practically, there is a distinction. A software developer aims to create a software product according to the client’s requirements. Meanwhile, product engineering firms care not only about the product but also about the impact it will produce.
In product engineering, a great emphasis is put on user experience. User experience defines how well users will interact with a solution. This, in turn, determines the profitability of the project. Therefore, the main difference between these two lies in the approach to building solutions. In product engineering, professionals apply a more sophisticated method.
How to find a reliable product engineering services company?
Make a list of candidates that you saw on review platforms like Clutch or GoodFirms or were told about. Explore testimonials and check case studies of these product engineering companies. The latter may tell you a lot about a company’s reputation and achievements on the market.
If big, recognized businesses cooperate with the product engineering company, it is a sign of their reliability and trustworthiness. But if product engineering services companies have little to show in the portfolio, it may be a sign of lacking experience. In this case, exclude the candidate from the list.
The next step is to get in touch with a service engineering company. Pay attention to the following factors:
- reply waiting time;
- quality of communication;
- business ethics;
- transparency.
These are the factors that demonstrate the professional level of your candidate. Analyzing them will help you choose the best partner from the list of product engineering services companies.
