As an excellent team of experienced professionals, the consultants work for their clients to fulfill the co-located team model.
The CEO spoke about two unique business models followed by the company:
- Project-Based or Turn-Key Business Model: The company acts as an end-to-end technology partner to its clients and works on the Fixed Bid engagement or Time and Material engagement methods.
- Team-Based or Team Extension Business Model: When a client holds an in-house team or wishes to extend a team needing the company’s expertise for a specific skill or subject.
Both engagement models are fully agile and transparent to the company’s stakeholders. These models can be understood in detail by directly connecting with their representatives.
Rupak proudly mentions his firm as different from other companies in diverse ways. They believe in 3P’s approach to success, i.e., People, Process, and Product. Here are the points that make them different from their counterparts:

- Trailblazers – The company adopts new technologies and provides advanced solutions in AI, IoT, ML, Big Data, RPA, etc.
When asked about what industries they cater to, Rupak replied that they believe in setting targets rather than setting boundaries. He agreed with the need for the digital transformation of businesses today. Hence, carry a practical approach to help all levels of their tech partners, from Healthcare, Transportation, Logistics, MRO (Maintenance-Repair-Overhaul/Operations), Automotives, Manufacturing, E-commerce, Utilities, Telecom, Oil and Energy, Education, Finance, Wellness, and Entertainment industries. He thanks his team, the consistent performance of which led the company to witness 60-70% of repetitive customers.
The company is the top mobile app development company in Dallas on the GoodFirms ranking list. It has always been appreciated for its extraordinary approach to meeting its clients’ expectations.
Mr. Rupak regards them as a team of consultants more than any tech company. He gives all credit to the company’s consultative approach to maintaining long-term relationships to retain the maximum of its customers. They personalize the experience for their customers by involving experienced designers, key advisors, and other professionals by simultaneously suggesting cost-effective solutions and adopting new-age technologies. After dropping a mobile solution, deploying assistance and ongoing support facilities are also provided to help clients continually improve their existing solutions.
Having a repetitive customer base seems to be the most significant element behind the company’s customer satisfaction. They put their heart and soul into all that the customers expect.

- Digital Transformation Solutions

- UI/UX Expertise

Following a 360 degrees communication model, allotting a dedicated project manager for each app development project and allowing clients to directly reach them out for more direct, transparent, and collaborative communication has been the significant pioneer for customer satisfaction in the company. The CEO claims they aim for a 5 Star CSAT score with all our client engagements. For instance, the same can be seen in Goodfirms ratings for Copper Mobile.
Rupak and his team never take any customer query single-handedly. The company follows a client-oriented approach by gathering meetings to understand their needs and requirements before entering into the implementation mode. The clients are provided a post-UAT free warranty and solution documentation to cater to their queries, including the dedicated project managers in the loop.
The payment system followed at Copper Mobile integrates the robust experience into a project, keeping in mind the project’s complexity, functionality, and architecture. Primarily, the company works on two payment models – fixed bids, where the cost is determined based on completing every milestone. The time and material model are where a lot of research is involved with the project, and the project’s cost is determined based on the number of developers deployed and the hours they put in.
Rupak shared that the project size does not matter in their checklist, but the project quality does. For every potential project, the price starts with $50,000 for small low-complexity MVPs to multi-million dollars for large-scale enterprise engagement. Instead, they always look forward to long-term partnerships with their clients.
“Our prime focus is on strong relationship building in terms of enterprise opportunities,” the CEO affirms. He concludes the interview by adding, “We aim to be the Most Trusted Digital Transformation Services Provider for Enterprise Businesses globally & make the world Future-Ready.”
