1: Overview Call/Meeting
We begin with an obligation free, high level discussion about your project and your desired outcomes for it, including time frames and any special requirements.
Outcome:
Confirmation we're a good fit, general understanding of project scope, with an indication of pricing to follow.
2: Ballpark Estimate
In the following few days, we'll produce a high level outline and estimate for your project.
We'll then walk you through the components so you understand what's involved.
Outcome:
Know what you are getting and approximate costs before you decide to proceed.
3: Project Mapping
We dive deeper and work with you to thoroughly understand what you really want and need, and what is required to make that happen.
This is a highly critical part of the process that can save much time and misunderstanding in the long run.
Known Project Scope
For projects where you already know exactly what you want and how you want it to work we will conduct an online meeting to understand your requirements, including user interface, Admin/User needs, any technical limitations and importantly, the key success factors for the project.
Outcome:
An agreed project plan, including accurate pricing & visual concepts.
Pricing may be by Project or Time & Materials based, depending on the complexity.
Unknown Project Scope
For projects where there are unknown or speculative aspects, we will lead you through a research process that involves interviews, designing mock-up solutions and presenting these back to you. This process consistently yields new, important insights.
Outcome:
High project confidence, visual concepts, a technical plan & pricing.
Pricing will be Time & Materials based, due to the unknown element.
