Commercial options

Pricing structures for project builds, retainers and ongoing product work.

Different projects suit different commercial models. EasierIT uses fixed-scope, retained and hybrid structures depending on how clear the scope is and how much continuity the work needs.

Project build

Fixed scope with a defined launch

  • Best when requirements are reasonably clear
  • Works for brochure sites, smaller portals and contained rebuilds
  • Usually priced by milestone or phase
  • Requires firmer scope control
Retainer

Ongoing development capacity

  • Best when priorities evolve month to month
  • Useful for product improvements and support after launch
  • Can include backlog planning and release help
  • Reduces stop-start momentum
Hybrid

Build first, then retain

  • Common when phase one has a hard launch
  • Good for moving from project mode to improvement mode
  • Keeps domain knowledge with the same team
  • Often the cleanest long-term model
Cost drivers people often miss
  • Content cleanup and migration effort
  • Auth, payments or third-party integrations
  • Legacy systems and unclear handovers
  • Environment, deployment and monitoring complexity
