Open roomChoosing where to start
If you are unsure which room you need.
Many organisations arrive asking for an app when the real need is a better website, or asking for a redesign when the underlying service is the difficulty. That is entirely reasonable: it is hard to see the shape of a problem from inside it.
Our habit is to begin with a short advisory engagement, typically a handful of conversations and a written note, that tests your assumptions before you commit to a larger piece of work. The note recommends a starting room and explains why. If it recommends something we do not offer, we say so.
Listen
We hear the problem as you see it, and talk to the people who will use the result if you allow it.
Diagnose
We write down what we think is going on and the options available, with honest trade-offs.
Recommend
We propose a starting point, a scope and a budget range, or advise you not to build at all.
Commit
Only then do we agree a statement of work and a timetable.
Commercial shape
How engagements are priced.
Advisory work is usually charged as a fixed fee for a fixed output. Design and build work is planned in stages, each with its own estimate, so you can stop at the end of any stage with something useful in hand. Ongoing support is a monthly arrangement with a clear allowance of hours and a published response window during working hours.
We do not publish a price list because the honest answer depends on the work. We do, however, give you a range in writing before you spend anything beyond the first conversation.
