SCOPE CONTRACT · BUILD
Build is for shipping a new product end-to-end on a fixed budget and a fixed window. It is not for staffing your existing team or for ongoing campaign management. Here is the line we draw.
- A productized outcome bundle (web SaaS, mobile, marketplace, automation, or regulated platform)
- Fixed scope written into the SOW before kickoff
- Fixed price and a fixed window (no hourly surprises)
- Your code in your GitHub from day one
- AI-paired senior engineering for 3–5× throughput on well-defined work
- Standard SOC-2-ready architecture defaults (encryption, audit log, access control)
- 90-day defect warranty on shipped work
- Ongoing maintenance retainers (the build ships; ops is yours or a fresh engagement)
- Design-only without build (we ship; design exists in service of shipping)
- AI consulting without engineering output (talk + slides without code is a different practice)
- Exploratory R&D with no shipping target (use Strategy or Build Foundation for that)
- Per-seat or per-hour billing (the price is the price)
- Sub-contracted engineering teams you never meet (you meet your team)
