Business Models & Process

With a wide spectrum of services provided from virtual reality and augmented reality development and gaming solutions to training & simulations and web development, Program-Ace is a company worth attention. For that reason, one of the most prominent business models is Dedicated Team. This model assumes that a team of professionals provided by an R&D company will work remotely on your project. In other words, developers effortlessly join an existing team, adopts customer company’s culture, methodologies, and best practices.

When specifications are unclear, and project scope is not precisely defined or needs to be developed throughout the project, Program-Ace suggests using our Time & Materials cooperation model. It will be a perfect match for a long-term or part-time project with no strings attached or undefined specifications, deliverables, or budget. As the final price and workloads change, T&M offers flexible working conditions for both parties. This cooperation model provides the resilience of modifying requirements, amount of developers, workload, and optimizing cost at the same time.

This model is preferable for small and medium projects with strict and well-documented requirements. The client gives the service provider with all main details like project scope, working period, deadlines for each stage of a project, established budget, demands to the final product and all project-connected details. These comprehensive set of specifications cannot be changed during the duration of the project. Program-Ace carefully explores all project details, estimates its scope and complexity, and provides a proposal with delivery schedule and total cost.

Sometimes the project is not small enough for Fixed Price business model, but yet the customer wants to have project cost estimation for at least certain period of time. In that case we offer a Hybrid business model, where first we develop a prototype or an MVP with limited functionality on a Fixed Cost basis and then step by step add the rest of the needed functionality on Time & Material basis.
