How applications get builtAlpha Fox Inc. · Canada
Consulting for the decision. Applications for the work.
Alpha Fox is a Canadian technology company. We help organizations choose a technical path, then design and build the applications that carry it.
- Applications, from the first release to handover
- Consulting when the decision is still open
- A written scope before the work begins
Two practices. Pick the one in front of you.
If the thing that must exist is already clear, start with applications. If the decision is still open, start with consulting. They are different kinds of work, and each has its own page.
Decide what is worth building.
A written point of view on architecture, vendors, and delivery: what to do, in what order, and what to leave alone.
How consulting worksThe engagement has a frame. The work inside it does not.
Both practices start with a written scope. An application engagement produces software. A consulting engagement produces a recommendation. The pages above describe each one.
-
Listen
The decision, the constraint, and whether Alpha Fox is the right company for it.
-
Scope
Outcome, boundaries, timeline, and fee. Work starts from that document.
-
Make
Software, or a recommendation. Reviewed while it is underway, not only at the end.
-
Hand over
The artifact, the reasoning, and enough context for your team to carry it.
Who hires Alpha Fox
Leaders who need a technical partner with a point of view.
The work is for a decision that will be expensive to reverse, or for an application built by the people who will stand behind the approach. Engagements run remotely across Canada, with on-site time when the work calls for it.
