The Founders
Created by Tech Entrepreneurs
“Our process helps you not just in the short term, but also sets you up for long term success and growth.”
Andrew Strickland
CEO & Co-Founder
Our Process
A Phased Approach
Discovery & Scoping
Understand the workflow, agree on the deliverables, and set the scope, price, and delivery milestones before the build.
Design & Build
Design, develop, and test the agreed scope. Review working software and give feedback at the milestones in the delivery plan.
Launch & Handoff
Deploy the software, prepare the team handoff, and provide the agreed post-launch support. Source code and IP transfer on final payment.
Ongoing Partnership
Most large builds are fixed-price, with a monthly retainer after launch. Ongoing development, maintenance, and support are scoped separately.
