Investment
Structured process starting with Discovery to define precise scope and value
FIRST STEP
Discovery Week
A week of complete immersion to map your design system's current state, understand specific challenges, co-create the ideal solution and define the detailed project scope.
What happens in Discovery:
After Discovery, you will receive a detailed commercial proposal with:
- · Complete scope customized to your needs
- · Total project value based on real complexity
- · Detailed timeline with milestones and deliverables
- · Contracting model options (Complete or By Phases)
* Discovery value is deducted from total project if approved
Contracting Models
After Discovery, you can choose between two contracting models. The final value will be defined based on the raised scope.
Model A
Complete Project
All phases included in final scope
Payment Method
40% on signing · 30% at Phase 2 · 30% on completion
Model B
By Phases
Phase-by-phase contracting according to scope
Payment Method
Payment at the start of each phase
Results
Success cases and typical results
Reduction in creation time
Design-code consistency
ROI through productivity
Fewer UI bugs
