A useful first message describes the platform, current implementation, problem, and success criterion. Confidential materials are shared only after an NDA when required.
Ownership
Source code and agreed intellectual-property rights are transferred to the customer under the contract.
Engineering environment
Work can be performed in the customer repository, CI, issue tracker, and test infrastructure.
Acceptance

PROCESS
How an engagement starts
- 01
Problem brief
Platform, codebase, symptoms, target load, and expected outcome.
- 02
Introductory call
Clarify constraints and select the smallest stage that reduces the main technical risk.
- 03
NDA and materials
When required: source code, dumps, profiles, device documentation, and lab access.
- 04
Proposal
Scope, duration, cost, result, and validation method are fixed before work begins.
Discuss the project
Describe the problem, current implementation and target outcome
Include the platform, what already exists, where the problem occurs, the target load and the acceptance criterion. This is enough to choose a sensible first stage and validation method.
Target response time: one business dayNext: a short introduction → an NDA if needed → agreement on the first stage.
