| Our fixed time, fixed
price model offers you, our customer, a low-risk option and can be
applied when the scope and specifications of the project are reasonably
clear. This model guarantees on-time, on-budget delivery of projects.
Deliverables, costs, and timelines are clearly defined in the Fixed
Time/Fixed Price model.
Client Interaction Procedure
We give our utmost effort to simplify the client
interaction plan during the project implementation (because in a
big project a client is usually "buried" under a lot of
data that is not really necessary). However, we are able to provide
any level of in-depth project information (in cases when Systematix
implements only a part of a project, or if it is the first project
and the client wants to completely monitor our work, etc).
The client interaction during a project implementation can be sub-divided
into two phases: Pre-project Phase
and Project Implementation Phase.
- Pre-project Phase
Tell us your needs and expectations. We do not expect you, our
potential customer, to present us well-defined and/or structured
requirements. Just speak out your thoughts and expectations and
it is quite enough for us to start analyzing your project. We
will analyze your information, ask some questions, offer you more
ideas and then formalize your answers in the form of project documentation.
Our technocrat will read the specification, would create Software Requirement Specification form (if not provided by the client) and would elaborate it (after the discussions with the client on unclear aspects and would also provide useful suggestions & tips).
After finalizing the specification that is suitable for both sides,
Systematix specialists will provide the optimal technical solution
and project estimation (the required budget and timetable). Also
the project implementation plan will be created (the dates for
project implementation start and finish, the dates when intermediate
versions will be ready, etc.).
If the created project estimate and working plan suits to the client, then the project implementation phase would begin.
- Project Implementation Phase
This phase takes 80% of a project time, and it requires the minimum
attention from our client.
Since the exact project specification exists and the project budget
and implementation plan are determined, our client will simply receive
the information on the project development.
We believe that it is convenient for our client to receive a regular
report (daily, weekly, bi-weekly or monthly), concerning the project
implementation. Our client will also receive the intermediate
versions of the project according to the timetable approved in
the project implementation plan. If during a project implementation
phase our client desires to alter the initial specification, it
is possible but such actions would be reflected in the project
timetable / budget changes.
- Contract Payment
For a small project (takes less than 1 month) the payment is effected
after our client has received and checked the final version. If
a project is large (takes more than 1 month), then the project
is sub-divided into several phases with separate payments after
the termination of each phase. As a rule, we correct all errors
found during 60 days after a project termination free of charge.
