Venture

When the software is the business, or the thing the business runs on. It starts with a paid discovery, because a Venture build is not a price until it is scoped — and a number given before that is a guess.

What you get

A Venture build: discovery, then the applicationOn the left, discovery gathers four things — users and roles, flows, the data model, and a fixed-price plan — and an arrow carries them into the build. The build is one application in three layers: the interface, the rules of the business, and the data. Beside it are three boxes: sign-in and roles, where the client's users arrive as staff, customers or admin; integrations, connected both ways to the client's other systems; and an audit trail of append-only lines recording who did what, and when.VENTURE · DISCOVERY FIRST, THEN THE SOFTWARE THAT RUNS THE BUSINESSDISCOVERYbefore anything is builtBUILDthe application, in productionAROUND ITwho gets in, what it talks tousers & roleswho uses it, and howflowsthe work, step by stepdata modelwhat it keeps, and howa fixed-price planmilestone by milestoneinterfacethe screens your users work inrules of the businessworkflows, approvals, checksdatathe records the business runs onSIGN-IN & ROLESwho gets in, and what each may dostaffcustomersadminINTEGRATIONSyour other systems,connected both waysothersystemsAUDIT TRAILwho did what, and when —kept, never edited

How it runs

  1. Paid discovery

    The users, the flows, the architecture.

  2. A prototype

    The key screens, clickable.

  3. A fixed-price plan

    Milestone by milestone; less the discovery fee.

  4. Build

    Working software, every week.

  5. Launch & handover

    Your account, backups, a runbook, the source.

The work

Never included

  • The build itself: it is priced as a fixed scope at the end of discovery, and paid in stages set then
  • Any tax that applies — prices are before it
  • Third-party services and infrastructure, billed to you directly

It assumes

  • Someone who can make decisions joins the discovery sessions
  • Existing systems and data are made available for discovery to inspect

Before you ask

Questions

Why does it start with a paid discovery?

Because a Venture build is not a price until it is scoped. Discovery produces the architecture, the flows, a clickable prototype of the key screens and a fixed-price build plan. Its fee comes off the build if it goes ahead.

What do I have at the end of discovery?

A written scope, an architecture and data model, a prototype you can click through, and a fixed price with milestones — all of it yours, whoever builds it.

Do you respond to tenders and RFPs?

For information systems, yes. The tender is read for fit and eligibility first; then a compliance matrix against its requirements, and the technical proposal and delivery plan written with you.

Can it connect to the systems we already run?

That is usually most of the work. Every system on the other side sets its own terms, so each connection is scoped in discovery before it is priced.

Who owns it, and who can run it afterwards?

You do. Production runs in your account, the source is yours, and the runbook is written for whoever operates it next — including someone who is not us.
