Procurement FAQ

Common questions from procurement teams before MSA sign-off.

What is the minimum engagement size?

Enterprise engagements start at AED 250,000 and run 12-24 weeks. We do not take on tactical builds, template implementations, or projects under AED 150,000.

Do you work with UAE government and semi-government procurement cycles?

Yes. We have delivered for federal and emirate-level entities and listed semi-government bodies, including tender submissions and standard qualification cycles.

What insurance do you carry?

Professional Indemnity cover up to AED 5,000,000 annually, plus AED 2,000,000 cyber liability including breach response.

Where is code hosted, and who owns IP?

Code is hosted in client-controlled repositories (GitHub Enterprise, GitLab Self-Managed, or Azure Repos). Clients retain full IP ownership of engagement deliverables.

How do you handle data residency for UAE workloads?

AWS Middle East (Bahrain, UAE), Azure UAE North / UAE Central, and on-premise where required, with documented localisation controls.

Will you sign our MSA or do we need to negotiate yours?

We work with client-provided MSAs from listed companies and government entities regularly. Our standard MSA + DPA is also available for review.

What does your standard SLA cover?

24/7 uptime monitoring, security patching, Core Web Vitals tracking, incident response with defined response/resolution times, and executive reporting.

Can you provide named client references during evaluation?

Yes. Reference introductions are available under mutual NDA, including for listed-company and regulated-vertical clients.

How do you handle change control and scope creep?

Every engagement runs with documented change control: request, impact analysis, timeline/cost review, sign-off, and tracked execution for audit.
