How We Work

We work alongside your team as integration specialists, delivering systems tailored to your institution's specific needs.

We operate as an extension of your team, not as an opaque vendor. Your architects sit in our design reviews; your operators sit in integration testing. Knowledge transfer starts on day one, not at handover.

The five phases

1

Assessment

2-4 weeks · No cost

We deliver

  • Current-state map (core, channels, certs)
  • Gap analysis vs. official specification
  • Target architecture (1-pager)
  • High-level roadmap

We need

  • 2-3 working sessions IT + Operations
  • Access to existing integration docs
  • Volume / TPS profile

Output

Assessment delivered. Move to quote.

2

Quote

+1 week

We deliver

  • Written quote with fixed scope
  • Payment schedule
  • Regulatory-change clause
  • Detailed project plan

We need

  • Finance / procurement approval
  • Stakeholder confirmation

Output

Contract signed → enters Build.

3

Build

+4-8 weeks

We deliver

  • Approved architecture design (topology, security model, custody of hardware-protected keys and secrets)
  • Deployment strategy (cloud / on-prem)
  • Working implementation against simulator
  • Validation of every protocol flow
  • Operations documentation

We need

  • Access to your architecture team
  • Bi-weekly joint demos
  • Pre-production environment access
  • Business-rules validation

Output

Working implementation ready to connect to the system.

4

Testing & Acceptance

+4 weeks

We deliver

  • Real connection to the system (test environment)
  • Acceptance testing with end users
  • Load tests at twice expected peak
  • Certification support with the regulator

We need

  • Operators assigned for acceptance testing
  • Test window with the regulator
  • Test-matrix approval

Output

Certification approved. Production-ready.

5

Go Live

+2 weeks

We deliver

  • Cutover and communication plan
  • Assisted production cutover
  • 24/7 support during the first week
  • Post-go-live stability report

We need

  • Internal communication plan
  • On-shift operations team
  • Runbook approval

Output

Stable production operation. Monthly license and support kick in.

What we never do

  • Proprietary frameworks that generate lock-in
  • Charge for minor regulatory changes mandated by the regulator
  • Hand over without complete operational documentation
  • Outsource core engineering, everything is done in-house
  • Black-box: you always have access to code and architecture

Risk mitigation

A

Fixed scope after assessment

We don't bill open-ended time and materials. Fixed quote with a clear regulatory-change clause, minor changes are covered under monthly support.

B

Monthly support from cutover

License and monthly support kick in at production. No gap between go-live and continuous operation.

C

Build-first against simulator

Every flow is validated against the simulator before entering the certification window, minimises surprises with the regulator.
