FAQs

1

Do you outsource your development, or is it done locally in Australia?

All of our development is done here in Australia. Your project is delivered by our local developers based in Sydney.  No part of your project is developed offshore.

2

How much does it cost to rescue my project from start to finish?

It depends on the state of your project. Rescue projects we work on range from $15,000 to $500,000+ for larger projects. Contact us if you’d like an estimate based on your situation.

3

What do I need to prepare for project rescue?

Ideally we would like:
– Functional specifications: what your product intends to achieve
– Jira or project management documents: detailing the status of your project and the development work done to date
– A run through with you to show us where the gaps are from a functional perspective

4

What information do you need from my previous developer/agency?

Nothing. Provided we have access to your systems, we can take it from here. However, handovers can reduce the time and effort required. Contact us and we can help you with templates and wording to help ensure a seamless handover with your current developer or agency.

How much more work is there to finish my project?

This depends on the state of your project – what’s been done to date, bugs needing to be fixed and the complexity of your project. Contact us if you’d like an estimate based on your situation.

Can you help me assess the quality of my project?

Yes. We can provide an independent review of your project, and provide insights and options to get you back on track.

Our brief was to develop an online solution that notifies key faculty members in the event of an emergency, notifying them of their specific action plan and allowing their progress throughout the emergency event to be tracked and displayed on a dashboard.
