How we work

A defined process, from discovery to long term support.

The same six stages run on every engagement, whether it is a five page website or a multi module business system. You always know what stage you are in and what is coming next.

01

Discovery

A scoping call, written requirements and an itemised quote before anything is built.

02

Design

Structure first, then interface design you approve screen by screen.

03

Development

Built in short stages you can review, with version control and staged environments.

04

Testing

Functional, cross device, performance and security checks before anything goes live.

05

Launch

Deployment, handover documentation and training for your team.

06

Support

A post launch support window, then an optional maintenance plan.

Service levels

What you can hold us to.

Response time

Within one business day on all enquiries and support requests.

Critical issues

Site or system down is treated as priority and picked up same business day.

After launch

30 day support window included on every build, snags fixed at no extra cost.

Maintenance plans

Monthly updates, backups, security patching, monitoring and content changes.

Delivery

Milestone based schedule agreed up front, with written progress updates each week.

Capacity

A vetted network of specialist developers and designers is brought in when scope calls for it.

Featured

Work and thinking, in progress.

Spotlight / Websites

Websites that pull
their weight.

Custom builds shaped around your business, or faster template based sites for tight timelines. Both leave you with a site that reads as considered, not generic.

Typical outcome: clients move from a static online brochure to a site that actually books calls and takes orders.

Spotlight / Software

Software that fits
how you work.

Booking systems, inventory tools, dashboards and back office panels. Priced against real scope and shipped in small, steerable stages.

Typical outcome: fewer spreadsheets, fewer manual handoffs, one system your team actually opens every day.

Pricing

Every project is quoted on what it actually needs.

No two businesses need the same build, so pricing is based on your scope, not a flat rate card. Every project starts with a free scoping call, and you get a clear, itemised quote before any work begins.

Book a free scoping call →
01

Business Websites

Custom builds or template based sites, scoped around page count, features and timeline. Quoted after a short brief.

02

CRM & Client Portals

Custom login areas, dashboards, automated notifications and integrations. Quoted against your specific workflow.

03

ERP & Custom Software

Built around how your business actually runs: inventory, invoicing, project tracking, or something entirely custom. Quoted after a scoping call.

04

Chat Commerce, E-commerce, Accounting & Invoicing Software

These are fully custom builds, so pricing depends entirely on your needs. Book a call and you will get a proposal built around your business, not a template.

What every quote includes: a clear breakdown of scope, a realistic timeline, and defined support terms after launch. No hidden line items added later.

Questions we get asked a lot.

01

How long does a typical project take?

+

A standard business website takes 2 to 3 weeks from kickoff to launch. Custom software and larger systems usually run 4 to 10 weeks depending on how many moving parts are involved. You will get a specific timeline in your quote, not a range.

02

What do you need from me to get started?

+

A short brief on what you are trying to achieve, any existing branding you have, and access to send you a proposal. If you do not have branding yet, that can be part of the project.

03

Do you provide hosting and domain setup?

+

Yes. Domain registration and hosting setup can be handled for you, or you can keep your existing setup and Inkframe will build into it.

04

What are your payment terms?

+

A deposit is required to begin work, with the balance due before launch on smaller projects, or split across milestones on larger builds. Exact terms are confirmed in your quote.

05

Do you offer support after launch?

+

Every project includes a support window after launch, and ongoing maintenance retainers are available after that if you want someone keeping things running.

06

Do you work with clients outside Zimbabwe?

+

Yes. Inkframe works with businesses across Southern Africa and takes on remote projects further afield when the fit is right.

07

Can you fix or rebuild an existing website?

+

Yes. Rebuilds and redesigns of existing sites are a common project type, whether the goal is a full redesign or targeted fixes.
