Home/Company/Engagement Models

Company

Pick the model by who owns the roadmap.

The three models differ in one thing that matters: where decisions get made. Quality bar, seniority and documentation standard are the same whichever you choose.

ModelsThree
Minimum2–6 week discovery
Team size2–12 engineers
Notice30–60 days
ContractingT&M capped, or fixed after discovery

A short note goes to an engineer who could lead the work — not a sales queue. We reply within one business day, or email info@gnapitechnologies.com.

Compare

The three models side by side.

Most long-running clients start in one and move to another as the work changes shape.

Getting started

From first call to first commit.

01

Scoping call with an architect

Sixty to ninety minutes. We map the problem, the constraints and the decision makers, and say plainly whether we are the right firm.

02

Assessment or discovery

Two to six weeks, paid, producing a written plan: architecture direction, risk register, team shape and a costed sequence. Yours to keep regardless of what you do next.

03

Team formation

We name the engineers, you meet them, and cadence, environments, access and definition of done are agreed before anyone bills at full rate.

04

Foundation increment

The first two weeks attack the riskiest unknown — an integration, a data volume, a performance ceiling — rather than the easiest feature.

05

Steady-state delivery

Two-week increments, an environment you can log into, and a monthly written review of velocity, risk and spend against plan.

Commercial

How we contract.

Ambiguity here causes more failed engagements than technology ever does, so we are explicit.

  • Time and materials for evolving roadmaps, with a monthly cap you set.
  • Fixed scope only after discovery. We will not fix-price a system we have not assessed.
  • Thirty to sixty days’ notice either way, so neither side is trapped.
  • Your IP from the first commit — code, documentation and decision records.
  • No lock-in by obscurity. Handover documentation is part of done, not a renegotiation lever.

Questions

What clients ask before signing.

Can we change model mid-engagement?

Yes, and many clients do — typically starting with on-demand developers to get moving, then converting to a dedicated team once the roadmap firms up. Thirty days’ notice and a short re-planning session.

What if the team is not working out?

Raise it at the weekly steering and we change the people. That is part of what you are buying; we do not defend a poor fit.

Who owns the intellectual property?

You do, from the first commit, including documentation and architecture decision records. Our own reusable internal tooling stays ours and is licensed to you at no cost for the life of the product.

Do you work on a retainer?

For maintenance, SLA support and NOC engagements, yes — a monthly retainer against agreed coverage and response targets. For build work, time and materials with a cap is usually better value than a retainer.
