How we deliver
Choose the engagement model that fits the decision.
The right model follows the risk, the duration and how clearly the outcome can be defined. We will recommend the lightest model that carries the work safely.
Engagement models
Four ways to structure the work.
Most engagements combine models: an advisory phase before a build, or a project before managed operations. We write down what changes when the model changes.
01
Advisory Engagements
Time-boxed expert advice, assessments and roadmaps that help you make confident decisions before you invest.
- Typical duration: A few weeks, agreed during scoping
- Commercial model: Fixed fee for defined deliverables
02
Fixed-Scope Projects
Defined scope, deliverables and timeline, delivered end to end by a Hinkor team accountable for the result.
- Typical duration: Weeks to months, delivered in phases
- Commercial model: Fixed price or capped budget per phase
03
Dedicated Teams & Team Extension
Hinkor engineers and specialists who join your team, follow your processes and work toward your roadmap.
- Typical duration: Months, with agreed notice periods
- Commercial model: Monthly rate per role or team
04
Outcome-Based Engagements
Ongoing services run by Hinkor and measured against agreed service levels, with continual improvement built in.
- Typical duration: Multi-year, starting with a transition
- Commercial model: Recurring fee for a defined scope
Compare
Start with the shape of the decision.
This is a guide, not a sales matrix. If two models could work, we choose the one with less unnecessary governance and a clearer handover.
