How we work

Small first step, frozen baseline, firm price.

We have watched enough pilots die in a second procurement cycle to structure the work so that never has to happen.

Three commitments

This is how we work today, on every engagement.

Architecture before build

Every program starts with a bounded, fixed-price phase that produces a frozen baseline and a firm price for what comes next. Signing binds that phase only.

WhyNobody can price a build honestly before the interfaces are known. Quoting one anyway is how programs go wrong.

The baseline comes first

Before anything is deployed we agree what is being measured, how, and who owns the result on your side.

WhyA technical result does not carry a procurement decision. An agreed baseline with a named owner does.

A small entry door

The first step is priced to sit inside the budget authority of the person who actually wants the work done.

WhyGood work most often fails to start because the ask exceeded the sponsor's authority.

Engineering services

Embedded software, FPGA logic, controls and integration, delivered by a small senior team on an instrumented, AI-assisted pipeline. Available on its own, in any industry.

575 hrs

41,200 production lines delivered measured

An instrumented program with two engineers. We report the certified and uncertified rates separately, because they are different products.

Instrumented delivery program

15 to 24

Lines per engineer-hour, verified measured

The rate under structured verification and validation, against about 72 uncertified. Both come from the same instrumented program, and we quote against the verified rate.

Same program, same two engineers

Intellectual property, plainly

You own what we build for you. We keep what we bring with us, and we make sure you are never trapped by it.

Foreground. Work built specifically for your program is assigned to you on payment, in your field of use.

Background. What we brought to the program is licensed, with source escrow and defined step-in triggers, so a change on our side never leaves you stranded.

Tools. Our internal development and orchestration tooling is not a deliverable. It is available under a separate agreement if you want it.

All three are written into the agreement before signature.
