ModvenRun an Opportunity ID →

Services · 02

Pick one opportunity, or several. We build the mechanism that captures each one.

A build follows a signed Opportunity ID. Each one takes ten weeks and goes live inside your operation, not in a deck. Several can run at the same time. The price is fixed, the stop condition is in writing, and what we ship belongs to you.

What you get

The deliverable, exactly.

The mechanism

Whatever the opportunity calls for. A quoting engine that prices from your own win history. A market for something you were giving away. A forecast that frees working capital. It runs inside your operation and does the job on its own.

Fixed price

Stated in the OID before any money moves. There is no hourly billing and no change order waiting at week six.

Stop condition

Agreed before the build starts. If the evidence says stop, we stop, and you keep everything that has been built to that point.

Ownership

The code, the models, and the data structures are yours. There is no license and no dependency on us once it is running.

Your people

Nothing is installed in your core systems. The mechanism sits beside them: your estimator sees a second number next to her own, and she decides. If a job has to change for the mechanism to work, that is written into the OID before you pay.

If it wants to be a company

Some mechanisms outgrow the business that found them. Inside your company a mechanism is worth what it adds to your margin. Sold to your whole industry as its own company, it is valued the way startups are valued, and you hold the equity. When an opportunity is that big, we help you structure the spin-out, bring the investors we know, and sometimes invest ourselves. Two of the companies on our work page took this path.

How it runs

Step by step.

Week 1

Architecture. We design the mechanism against the opportunity in the OID and agree on the stop condition in writing.

Weeks 2 to 6

The build. Agents and Justin, working against your export. You get evidence every week rather than a status report. From your side, one estimator or controller for about an hour a week.

Weeks 7 to 9

Live in one corner of the operation, on real records and real decisions, measured against the size of prize we wrote down in the OID. From your side, a half day of IT to stand it up beside your systems, and sign-off from the controller.

Week 10

Shipped and handed over. From here it is scaled or killed on what the numbers say.

Questions

Asked before the first call.

Yes. Each build is its own ten weeks with its own price and its own stop condition, and several can run at the same time.

A quoting engine that prices from your own history instead of a cost-plus sheet. A retention program that intervenes before a customer churns. An inventory forecast that frees working capital. A market for something you were giving away. It is always a working thing, never a recommendation.

The stop condition says in advance what “doesn’t work” means. If we hit it, the build stops there and you keep what exists. That is the capped downside, and it is written before you spend anything.

Yes. The OID is where the opportunity gets sized and the stop condition gets written. Building without it would be guessing at a fixed price, and we do not do that.

Then we say so in the OID. We have founded seven companies and helped fund others, so we can structure the spin-out, introduce the investors who back this kind of thing, and where it fits, put our own money in beside yours.
