Services
We build software.
Operations complete it.
Engineering is the core practice. Operations keep what we build alive in production. Advisory and governance sit alongside — embedded in delivery, not sold as separate workshops. One Swiss-led team owns the outcome end-to-end.
I Engineering
Software engineering & build
Our core practice. Senior-led design and engineering of production software — web, backend, data, integrations. Owned end-to-end through to release.
Sample deliverables
— Reference architecture & ADRs
— Iteratively delivered production system
— GitOps pipelines, observability, test stack
— Handover documentation aligned to QMS
When to call us
New platforms, replatforming or build-outs that have to ship.

II Advisory
Strategic & technical advisory
Senior judgement across business and technology — from people who have run regulated environments (Tier-1 financial services and public administration). C-level advisory, board-grade opinions and architecture decisions, embedded in delivery rather than wrapped in a workshop deck.
Sample deliverables
— C-level & board advisory on digital strategy
— Architecture review and technical due diligence
— Fractional CTO / Head of Engineering
When to call us
Board decisions, regulated transformations, pre-investment reviews, or when something feels off.

III Operations
Platform & operations
We operate what we build. SRE, observability, on-call, change and incident management — under an ISO-aligned QMS, on AWS, Google Cloud and Azure.
Sample deliverables
— Cloud landing zone & platform
— Observability, alerting & on-call rota
— Incident, change & release management
— SLAs and operational reporting (99.9% measured)
When to call us
Going live in production, taking over an unattended system, or scaling up.

Through-line
Governance is not the brake. It is the steering.
Delivery governance &
audit-readiness – integrated.
«Most regulated programmes fail not at build, but at audit. We invert that — the evidence trail is the deliverable, and the working software ships alongside it.» Dani Fricker, Partner
Quality-Gates → Built into every sprint, not bolted on at the end.
Traceability→ Audit trail from decision to deployment, in every engagement.
Compliance Documents → QMS-aligned evidence generated from day 1 — not day 300.
Programme oversight → Senior steering and vendor governance on every delivery.
B
Engagement
Aligned incentives,
transparent metrics.
We avoid both extremes — fixed-price scope games and open-ended body leasing. Most engagements move through three phases. You can exit at any phase boundary.
Phase A
Capped-hour discovery
Typical: 2–4 weeks
A fixed, capped budget to understand the problem before the work is quoted.
-
Defined scope, defined cap — no surprise invoices.
-
Senior partner leading from day 1.
- Ends with a written opinion you can act on.
Phase B
T&M with timesheets
Typical: 3–18 months
Time-and-materials delivery with transparent timesheets and weekly governance.
- Senior-led, blended Swiss + offshore team.
- Weekly burn report, monthly steering.
- Stop, slow down or scale at every sprint boundary.
Phase C
Advisory & operations retainer
Typical: 6–12 rolling months
Ongoing senior judgement and SRE coverage after stabilisation — fractional, not full-time.
- Fixed monthly retainer.
- Named partner + on-call rota.
- Quarterly review against business outcomes.
