WHAT THE SERVICE INCLUDES
Work shaped around your requirements.
Understand when ecommerce requirements call for custom development, platform extension or a combination of both.
We begin by understanding the current workflow and the outcome you need. Then we assess requirements and dependencies, compare practical routes and define a scope your team can review.
- Requirements the platform cannot meet
- Catalogue, pricing and checkout rules
- System and payment integrations
- Ownership and ongoing operations

Platform and extension constraints
Review current tools, constraints and the information needed to support the requirement.

We start with your work

We compare practical routes
Consider existing platforms and integrations alongside custom development, so the scope follows the requirement.

Include handover, operating responsibilities and future changes in the delivery discussion.
FROM REQUIREMENT TO HANDOVER
A scope your team can evaluate.
