FAQ

Frequently asked questions

We’re AWS-first and can support cloud IoT patterns as needed—device ingestion, processing, storage, and dashboards—based on your constraints and existing infra.

We design for retries, buffering, idempotent events, and clear fallbacks so device and operator workflows remain stable under network issues.

Yes. We often ship dashboards first, then add operator/field workflows in phases so teams can validate data and alerts early.

Most MVPs land in 6–10 weeks depending on data sources and scope. We can phase delivery to start with dashboards + alerts and expand safely.

Regional

Delivery considerations for your region

Compliance & Data (EU)

For Germany/EU delivery, we keep GDPR-first patterns: data minimisation, purpose-limited storage, and explicit access boundaries.

We can work under a DPA (template available on request) and implement pragmatic retention/deletion flows when needed.

  • GDPR-first architecture patterns (generic, no legal claims)
  • DPA template available on request
  • Retention/deletion and export flows where required
  • Least-privilege access and safe logging defaults
  • Documented data flows and access boundaries

Timezone & Collaboration (EU)

We align to EU working hours with CET-friendly collaboration windows and async progress updates.

We keep delivery predictable: weekly milestones, documented decisions, and clear scope control.

  • EU overlap with CET-friendly windows
  • Async-first delivery with written decisions
  • Weekly milestone demos and progress checkpoints
  • Clear change control to avoid surprises
  • Escalation path for blockers and risks

Engagement & Procurement (EU)

We support procurement-friendly engagements with clear scopes, milestone plans, and documentation that stakeholders can review.

For EU teams, we can structure invoices and milestones for EUR-based engagements where appropriate.

  • EUR-based engagements and invoicing options
  • Discovery-first option to reduce delivery risk
  • Milestone-based billing and scope sign-offs
  • Vendor onboarding documentation on request
  • Transparent change control and approvals

Security & Quality (EU)

We prioritise reliability: reviewable PRs, predictable releases, and tests that protect critical paths.

Performance budgets and clear release discipline keep the product stable as it grows.

  • CI-friendly testing: unit + integration + smoke tests
  • Performance budgets + bundle checks
  • Release checklist + rollback-safe deployments
  • Security checklist for auth and sensitive data flows
  • Observability hooks (logs + error tracking) ready for production
