Value Proposition




Our typical collaborative project has one highly experienced US manager ($4,000 monthly retainer, 40+ hrs/mnth) remotely managing a team of 2-5 full-time engineers.

At our state-of-art international development site, additional (non-billed) managerial oversight and support services further ensure quality of service.

Monthly R&D Expenses





Collaborative Project Management

This is a proven collaborative project management technique for international development. It is a process with which we have significant experience. The local manager is also constantly in contact with our client, developing and refining specifications, reviewing progress, installing and/or implementing on-site, etc.

The local manager has full technical responsibility and accountability.


The net result is low-risk software development, at a hybrid US/off-shore price.

This cost is substantially lower than competing domestic consulting. Moreover, it is substantially lower even than in-house development. The table below contrasts monthly costs for a typical small project.
