Engagement Models

Need technical skills or expertise? A Dedicated Team can help extend resources, and can work seamlessly with your company under your guidance or ours. This model is ideal when planning long-term or larger scope projects, have several projects or a pool of tasks, or don’t have a clear vision of future project objectives.

Fixed cost pricing is best suited for projects with a strictly defined scope that won’t change. The main advantage is it allows clients to plan and set an exact budget. If the scope is undefined, we can also work with you to develop high-level specs. Once agreed upon, we send a proposal that provides a snapshot of time, costs, team structure, and deliverables.

This model usually applies for prototypes, when a client, and thus our developers, don’t have a clearly defined scope. The client pays for work completed, based on agreed upon benchmarks. So they play a greater role in the development of software solutions and carry all risks related to the scope of work. The client is assigned a team and is billed for actual time accrued.
