Our team works with marketers, owners and product managers to support the day-to-day maintenance and iterative improvements of their properties.
Our specialists can augment your company’s efforts across a broad spectrum of digital services, with no stringent, ongoing commitments. This includes design, development and systems support across a variety of platforms with a focus on bridging the gaps within your organizations internal capabilities.
All NP Group maintenance and improvement arrangements are based on hourly rates. We offer these engagements via two possible relationships: monthly commitments and “agile” maintenance retainers.
For customers who have a steady stream of work, predictable tasks, or wish to hire full-time resources, monthly commitments make the most sense. This includes a block of time which is committed to on a monthly basis, typically with an overage discount. Such arrangements are recommended for customers who exceed 20 hours of work per month on a consistent basis.
Agile maintenance is much like a legal retainer. Customers make an initial deposit into a retained services account, and NP Group utilizes those funds as requests are made. When your account comes due for a refill, your account manager will reach out to discuss the refill amount and any discounts applicable. Each month, your account manager will also provide you with a report of time spent, and a list of each task. No task is ever completed without providing you with an estimation of the time required. The one exception would be for updates or upgrades, provided we have your permission to perform those updates automatically without approvals for the sake of safety and security.
Unused hours do not expire unless left dormant for one year, and there is no ongoing commitments. For more information about rates and requirements, please visit our current budget guidelines.
There are no initial onboarding fees other than the time it takes to create your development environment, and update or secure your platform. We estimate the time necessary during our initial proposal and also outline precisely what we’ll be updating or upgrading, based on your particular situation.
Our SLA includes turnaround times based on the size of the retained services deposit. However, most all clients will hear from their assigned account manager within an hour of making a request, if not sooner. Total time to completion of a task, of course, depends on task complexity.
Getting started is as simple as scheduling a 1:1 consultation to discuss your property, your requirements and review our services in detail.
