Starting prices reflect a focused initial scope. Your written proposal confirms deliverables, build cost, managed-service scope, and term before work begins. Third-party subscriptions and larger changes are scoped separately.
BUILT. AND LOOKED AFTER.
A system is only useful
if it keeps working.
That’s why we pair the build with ongoing management. You run the business. We look after the technology.
More than a place to host your site.
Managed service can cover hosting, SSL, maintenance, monitoring, deployment, minor content updates, and technical support. Apps can also include database care, backups, and integration monitoring.
Your proposal defines the specific coverage, update allowance, response expectations, and third-party costs. Bigger changes get a separate scope.
