Illustrative scenario

01 / MERVOLIX

Give your idea a clear shape.

You may have an application idea, a process still managed through email, or a personal need that existing tools do not meet. Before choosing a technology, the useful actions, information and decisions need to be made explicit. This service turns those starting points into an understandable development scope.

We start with one main use case. We describe the journey, operating rules and error situations, then separate a first release from possible later improvements. You receive a document you can use to request a technical proposal, compare approaches or move the project forward in manageable stages.

USEFUL DETAILS

Before you start.

Do I need an existing specification?+

No. Notes, an example and an idea of the desired result are enough for the first discussion. The specification is the deliverable of this service.

Can I use the document with another provider?+

Yes. The handover is designed to be reusable. The accepted proposal specifies your rights to use the deliverables.
