Resumen:
Las nuevas tecnologías y la inteligencia artificial han democratizado el acceso al conocimiento y están permitiendo desarrollar, validar y lanzar productos de software al mercado muy rápidamente. En este trabajo se desarrolló una aplicación móvil desde cero, con el objetivo de resolver el problema de la gestión del inventario para revendedores de productos físicos. Para validar el problema, la solución y el mercado, se emplearon metodologías como The Lean Startup (Ries, 2011) y Running Lean (Maurya, 2012). Primero se identificó el problema principal y se formularon nueve hipótesis iniciales. Estas trataban el problema, la solución, el cliente objetivo y el mercado, luego se plasmaron en un Lean Canvas, se validaron parcialmente con entrevistas a usuarios reales y se definió el Producto Mínimo Viable (PMV). Se llevaron a cabo tres iteraciones del PMV y dos pivots, el primero de segmento de cliente, y el segundo de canal de entrega de valor. Al final del estudio, de las nueve hipótesis iniciales, se habían rechazado dos, se aceptaron cinco y dos más quedaron en aceptación parcial. Se concluyó que el problema y la solución quedaron validadas pero no la viabilidad de la solución en el mercado.
Abstract:
New technologies and artificial intelligence have democratized access to knowledge and are allowing software products to be developed, validated and launched to the market very quickly. In this work, a mobile application was developed from scratch, with the goal of solving the problem of inventory management for resellers of physical products. To validate the problem, the solution and the market, methodologies such as The Lean Startup (Ries, 2011) and Running Lean (Maurya, 2012) were used. First, the main problem was identified and nine initial hypotheses were formulated. These addressed the problem, the solution, the target customer and the market, then they were captured in a Lean Canvas, partially validated with interviews with real users and a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) was defined. Three iterations of the MVP and two pivots were carried out, the first one, a pivot of the customer segment and the second one a pivot of the value delivery channel. At the end of the study, of the nine initial hypotheses, two had been rejected, five were accepted and two more were in partial acceptance. It was concluded that the problem and the solution were validated but not the viability of the solution in the market.
