SOFTWARE ENGINEERING / PACKAGE
Discovery & Specification
A focused discovery phase producing an agreed scope, technical approach, priorities and delivery estimate.
DIRECT / FOUNDER-LED
The catalogue stays focused on work PluginPip can support properly now.
About PluginPip01 / WHAT YOU GET
What the starting price
is designed to cover.
This is the normal shape of a project at this package level. Your written quote is the final authority on exactly what is included.
- Stakeholder and workflow discovery
- Requirements and priority definition
- Initial architecture and technology recommendation
- Risks, dependencies and assumptions
- A scoped delivery estimate or phased recommendation
02 / BASE ASSUMPTIONS
What “from” assumes.
No mystery pricing.
The advertised figure is realistic when the job fits these assumptions. If it does not, we explain why before quoting the larger scope.
- More workflows, user roles, screens or business rules.
- Complex integrations or third-party API limitations.
- Large or difficult data models and migrations.
- Advanced security, compliance, audit or approval requirements.
- Mobile/offline capability, real-time processing or high availability.
- Significant reporting, analytics or administration tooling.
03 / USUALLY SEPARATE
Things we do not quietly
hide inside the base price.
- Third-party licences, subscriptions, cloud usage or transaction charges unless explicitly included.
- New work that is not part of the written scope.
- Large-scale content creation, data cleansing or manual data entry unless quoted.
- Priority or out-of-hours work unless specifically agreed.
04 / DELIVERY STANDARD
Professional controls.
Explained in normal language.
Requirements, architecture, authentication, permissions, data design, integrations, acceptance criteria, deployment, observability and handover are treated as core parts of the software product.
- Paid discovery for larger systems
- Role-based access and authentication
- Data and integration design
- Acceptance criteria
- Phased delivery
- Deployment and support planning
05 / TECHNOLOGY
The tools are chosen for the job.
The package is not tied to a fashionable framework. These are examples of platforms, technologies or standards that may be relevant.
06 / WHAT “FROM” MEANS
A starting price, not an open-ended bill.
The displayed price is the starting point for work matching the typical package scope and assumptions on this page. Before paid work begins, PluginPip confirms the requirements, deliverables and price in writing. If you later ask for work outside that agreed scope, the change and any additional cost are explained and agreed before the extra paid work proceeds.

We will confirm the scope.
You do not need a technical specification. A clear description of the outcome, current setup and any must-have requirements is enough to start.
