Our Approach

Here at slashdotcom, our approach is simple, honest, and built around what you actually need — not about over-inflated scope.

1. Initial Communication

We start with a clear, direct conversation to understand what you’re trying to achieve. No assumptions or sales spin — just listening, asking the right questions, and understanding your goals and constraints.

2. Visual Blueprint

We then create a simple visual blueprint showing our recommended direction. This helps you see exactly how we propose to meet your objectives before any commitment.

3. One Day Discovery (Refundable)

If the blueprint aligns with your goals, we carry out a one day billable discovery. If you choose to continue with slashdotcom for delivery, this cost is fully refunded.

During discovery we capture:

  • Your current setup
  • Technical and business requirements
  • Risks, blockers and assumptions
  • All raw data (which you receive in full)

If you decide not to continue with slashdotcom, that’s completely fine — you’re welcome to take the discovery output to any other consultancy or provider. It’s your data, and you remain fully in control.

4. Summary of Findings

You get a clear, plain English summary outlining what we found, what’s working, what isn’t, and what needs to change.

5. Low Level Design

We produce a factual, detailed low level design based on the discovery data. No filler, no buzzwords — just a precise technical plan.

6. Statement of Works

We deliver a transparent Statement of Works that sets out:

  • Scope
  • Deliverables
  • Timelines
  • Responsibilities
  • Costs

No waffle, no marketing language, and no inflated promises.

7. Sign Off

Once everything is fully understood and agreed by both sides, we sign off together — with a shared understanding of the plan.

8. Project Start

We schedule the start date, assemble the delivery team, and begin the project exactly as outlined.

No surprises, no scope-creep by stealth — just a straightforward, fact-based delivery approach.
