Working with you
Making it right for your project
You, your project and your company are unique so we build your solution around your situation by taking the time to understand your operating pain points, your needs and what success looks like from your standpoint.
NDAs, Ownership and Access
Most clients require an NDA to be in place, this is perfectly reasonable and acceptable to us.
You own all rights to agreed deliverables once full payment has ben received in cleared funds. Software source code is always provided with our deliverables where appropriate.
Typically we will work with a shared GIT repository, either ours or yours. This enables you to view progress and access the software state at any time.
Billing
We undertake project work and consultancy on either a fixed price, time and materials basis or prepayment.
Fixed Price
Where the requirements for a project are well documented – including if we have helped draw up those requirements on your behalf we may agree to provide a fixed price.
Please note that once a price has been accepted by both sides and the project has commenced, any changes to the agreed deliverables or requirements will incur additional costs.
Time and Material
This represents the most flexible basis and allows for the project flow to change as required without recourse to the original commercial agreement. It is particularly suited to projects conducted on an “agile” basis.
Prepayment
Unless we have a prior working relationship we will usually ask for prepayment for feasibility studies or very short pieces of work of 5 or less working days.
If you are a new company without a track record (and new to us), we may ask for a percentage of the anticipated project costs in advance and proof you hold funds to cover the entire project.
As part of our procedures, each new working relationship will be assessed to determine if any form of advance payment is appropriate.
