Smallest paid commitment
Workflow Sprint
S$1,500 – S$2,500
1 day

You have one specific workflow question and need a recommendation, sketch, and path forward.

What you get
  • Single-question deep dive
  • Written recommendation
  • Workflow sketch
Not for
  • Full system scoping
  • Multiple workflow areas
See Workflow Sprint
Most common starting point
Paid Discovery
S$1,500 – S$3,000
1 week

You are ready to evaluate a custom build. You want a written scope, architecture, fixed quote, and delivery timeline before committing.

What you get
  • Workflow audit
  • System architecture
  • Fixed-scope build quote
  • Delivery timeline
Not for
  • Single-question quick answers (use Sprint)
  • Vendor selection without build intent (use RFP Support)
See Paid Discovery
See it work before committing
Architecture Workshop
S$5,000 – S$8,000
2 – 3 days

You want to validate the system approach with a working prototype before signing for a full build. Highest assurance, mid-commitment.

What you get
  • Working prototype of one workflow surface
  • Architecture document for full system
  • Decision document with go/no-go criteria
Not for
  • Prospects who already trust the approach (skip to Discovery → Build)
See Architecture Workshop
Independent advisory, no vendor affiliation
Vendor Selection Support
S$3,000 – S$8,000
2 – 4 weeks

You are evaluating off-the-shelf ERP vendors and want a neutral second opinion. Not committed to custom build.

What you get
  • Requirements brief
  • Vendor scorecard
  • Demo evaluation
  • Build-vs-buy recommendation
Not for
  • Already decided on custom (skip to Discovery)
  • Have a specific vendor preference
See Vendor Selection Support
The main event
Custom Build
S$10,000 – S$30,000
6 – 12 weeks

You have completed Discovery (or have an equivalent scope document). You are ready to build a custom manufacturing ERP shaped to your workflow.

What you get
  • Fixed-scope MVP shipped to staging by week 6-8
  • Weekly demo calls
  • Parallel-run adoption (2-4 weeks)
  • Staff training
  • Full code ownership (private GitHub repo)
Not for
  • Operations under 30 staff (use Zoho-class tools first)
  • Standard workflow that fits off-the-shelf modules
See Custom Build
When scope exceeds one MVP
Phased Programme
S$40,000+
Multi-phase

Your scope is too large for a single MVP. Each phase delivers independent value before the next begins.

What you get
  • Discovery produces roadmap
  • 2 – 3 build phases
  • Each phase ships independent value
  • Continuous adoption alongside delivery
Not for
  • First custom system (start with single Build)
  • Operations without proven need across multiple workflow surfaces
See Phased Programme
Typical paths

Three common sequences.

Fast path
Discovery → Build

Most common. One week of discovery, then 6 – 12 weeks of build. Total 7 – 13 weeks from first conversation to live system.

High-assurance path
Sprint → Discovery → Workshop → Build

For prospects who want to validate at every step. Sprint surfaces the question, Discovery scopes the answer, Workshop proves the prototype works, Build delivers.

Build-vs-buy path
RFP Support → (decision) → Discovery → Build (or off-the-shelf)

For prospects evaluating ERP vendors. Independent vendor scorecard first; if custom is the answer, Discovery sets the scope; if off-the-shelf is the answer, we say so.
