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
