Build · 4-8 weeks · one workflow, shipped · scoped on a call
Pilot Build.
One workflow. One measurable outcome. Built, shipped, and owned by your team in weeks, not a proof-of-concept that dies in a sandbox. The fastest way to turn a line on your Audit roadmap into cost off your P&L.
this is for you if.
You know the workflow that's bleeding time, the one everyone complains about, and you want it fixed, properly, in production. You're done with pilots that demo well and then quietly disappear. You want a working system your team runs after we leave.
the terms.
Fixed fee, fixed scope, clear milestones. Change requests are quoted, never surprise-invoiced. 30-day warranty on delivery. Everything built is documented and owned by you.
what we build.
One real workflow
integrated with the tools you already use.
In production
with your team using it on real work, not a demo.
A Skills pack
your team owns and can extend to the next workflow.
The measurement
to prove the outcome, so the next build is an easy yes.
what it looks like.
The kind of pilot we build, and the outcome each one targets (illustrative, not a claim of past work):
- Tender / bid response assistant: aims to cut bid prep from ~2 weeks to ~3 days.
- Defects / snagging classifier from site photos: automated first-pass QA review.
- Contract & variation clause extractor: targets ~60% less legal review time.
- Email-to-project-system auto-filer: zero manual filing.
- RFI triage & drafting assistant: faster, more consistent turnaround.
how it runs.
- 01
Scope + fixed fee.
We agree the one outcome and the price up front. No hourly meter.
- 02
Build in the open.
Weekly working sessions; you see it take shape, not a big reveal at the end.
- 03
Ship + adopt.
It goes live, your team uses it, we sit with the rough edges.
- 04
Handover.
Documented, owned, and yours, with a 30-day warranty.
what you're paying for.
A fixed-fee, milestone-based build: typically 30% on signing, 30% at mid-point, 30% on delivery, 10% held 30 days. You're paying for a system that earns its keep, not a retainer that never ends. We scope it to one outcome and show you the payback maths on the call, before you commit.
the receipts.
Every system Azgard runs on itself started as exactly this: one workflow, built to actually work, then extended. We build yours the same way: ship one thing that earns its keep, then let the wins fund the next.
your guide.
Angus McDonald, founder of Azgard. He scopes to one measurable outcome because he's been the operator holding the P&L, not just the consultant holding the deck.
