Fixed-Price Custom Software

• The workflow is broadly understood but not yet well supported digitally
• The budget needs to be fixed before the project starts
• The required features can be specified in advance
• Requirements should not expand without limits during implementation

• A fixed price for a clearly agreed scope
• An easier decision because the budget and goal are known before the project starts
• Focus on the most important features of the first version
• Lower project risk through transparent assumptions and clear exclusions

The service is particularly suitable for clearly defined internal applications and tools, simple customer portals, and replacements for spreadsheets and Excel files.

Typical examples include small administration tools, simple input and approval processes, customer areas with a few core features, or web applications that replace an existing Excel file with a clearer workflow.

• Brief review of the goal, process, and constraints
• Assessment of a suitable price range
• Clarification of the first version's scope
• Implementation of the agreed first version
• Handover of the application and clarification of ongoing operations

The following price tiers are a guide. The specific fixed price depends on the agreed scope. Contact me for a non-binding quote.

Tool, Approximately CHF 500 to 2,500

A small tool for a single, clearly defined purpose. Suitable for simple inputs, conversions, reports, or helper functions without complex user management.

For example, a small internal tool that reads a CSV file, validates the data, and creates a cleaned export file.

Web Application, Approximately CHF 5,000 to 25,000

A lean web application with several views, straightforward interactions, and a limited data model. Suitable for internal tools, simple customer areas, or the replacement of an Excel process.

For example, a simple customer portal where customers can submit requests, view documents, and track the status of ongoing cases.

More Complex Web Application

More complex web applications can be developed in several phases, with a fixed price for each phase. The project starts with a web application. Further phases then follow at CHF 5,000 to 25,000 per phase. Each phase ends with a usable application.

For example, an internal platform that initially covers a core process and is then gradually extended with additional roles, data areas, or workflows.

1. You describe the process, goal, and existing files or systems.
2. I assess whether the project fits a price range.
3. Together, we clarify which features are included in the first version.
4. You receive a fixed-price offer for the defined scope.
5. After approval, I implement the agreed version and hand it over for use.

You receive an application that clearly supports the agreed process and is usable in everyday work. It can be extended later if needed.

Briefly describe your project. I will assess whether a fixed price makes sense and get back to you with my assessment.
