Help you effectively plan your next software or web application

What you get with this Offer
Our base offering covers 2 hours of in-depth discussion regarding your project. We will discuss your goals, budget, essential and non-essential components. By the end of the discussion, you will have a clear plan of attack even if you aren't the most technically inclined person on the planet. You'll have a good idea of the right tools for the job, the right technologies to use in order to bring your dream to fruition, and what your next steps should be and what sort of developer to look for. I'll even help you to write out your RFP (request for proposal) if you like (add-on service).
I've been developing and managing complex software and web projects for over twenty years now. I've worked for the US Department of Defense, SPAWAR, and was a founding developer at both eBay and Paypal. For the last 14 years, I've been the Chief Software Architect of coderPro.net.
I will never forget reading a book called Code Complete from Microsoft press early in my career. They wrote: " Projects that skimp on upstream activities typically have to do the same work downstream at anywhere from 10 to 100 times the cost of doing it properly in the first place. If you can’t find the 5 hours to do the job right the first time, where are you going to find the 50 hours to do it right later?" This is actually where my company's slogan: "Done Right the First Time" came from.
Add-On (Optional Services):
- I can also help you to draft up a winning project plan/technical specification that your developers can follow and will have absolutely no excuse for misunderstanding or underdelivering. Everything will be painted out for them in both textual and pictorial formats.
- For an additional $300, I'll also mockups of your web or software application in Adobe XD.
- For an additional $75 I can write a detailed RFP that you can use here on PPH or whenever you like to attract the *right* kind of talent to your project so you can spend less time separating the weed from the wheat from the chaff.
Terms and conditions:
- All project plans, including diagrams, are not to exceed 10 pages in length.
- Mockups may not exceed more than 6 screens.
- RFP shall not consist of more than 500 words.
In the case that your project will exceed the terms above, we can surely reach an agreement that makes everyone happy.
