PROPOSAL
Prepared for Kvantum Inc
We respectfully submit the following proposal (valid till June 2016), which includes information about
our capabilities, methodology, example projects and other pertinent information for consideration.
Management Approach
We approach each client engagement using a documented set of policies, processes, and procedures.
Each client is assigned a project manager who acts as the primary point of contact for your organization.
This project manager guides the project team through the development process to ensure timely and
high-quality completion. The iProgrammer team uses a comprehensive set of checklists, tasks and
procedures that are tailored to each client. In addition, daily project status meeting are held that focus
on answering three questions:
(a) What have you done since yesterday?
(b) What are you planning to do today? And
This transparency and daily review of progress mitigates risk and ensures that close management of the
project occurs at every stage. Behind the scenes the project manager coordinates with the executive
team to ensure service quality. iProgrammer uses many technologies to manage projects, including:
Pivotal Tracker, Basecamp, and Skype. These systems allow us to systematically manage complex
projects.
Development Process
iProgrammer will guide Kvantum Inc through the following discovery, planning, design and production
process. Adhering to this process will ensure a successful outcome. Our process starts with Phase 0.
iProgrammer’s goal in this analytical phase is to define features concretely, determine technology
integration specifics, and prioritize features so that investment is made in those areas that will provide
the greatest return on investment for Kvantum Inc .
Phase 0
Phase 1
Hosting
iProgrammer does not offer hosting services. We work with third parties whose business is to provide
hosting. Our customers have direct relationships with these vendors, although we can manage the
relationship should our customer so desire.
We generally recommend that clients procure a managed hosting solution. Managed hosting can be for
a dedicated or virtualized server environment. By selecting managed hosting clients are able to rely on
the hosting provider to manage the network, hardware, and software stack infrastructure 24/7/365 as
part of the hosting costs.
Launch
iProgrammer works with our clients to ensure a smooth launch. We build a detailed launch plan that
plans out each step in the process and who is responsible for that step. We will perform a trial run of
this process and ensure that the steps work as prescribed. This approach minimizes the chances that an
unexpected event will occur and disrupt the process. We also plan for rollback as a contingency if there
iProgrammer works with many of its clients to provide ongoing support for their web properties and can
provide this same high level of support to Kvantum Inc. iProgrammer prides itself on being able to
provide our clients with responsive service. iProgrammer can provide ongoing support at our standard
hourly rate of $15 per hour for any labour performed on Monday through Friday between the hours of
10 am and 8 pm. For labour that is performed, at your request, after hours or on the weekend is billed
at our emergency rate of $25 per hour.
Alternatively we can also sign a separate long term (minimum 6 months to maximum 1 year)
maintenance contract. You are encouraged to request a copy of this maintenance contract.
Creative team members are a diverse group of individuals that have different interests, experiences and
backgrounds. We thrive on challenging projects, problem solving, customer service, continual education
and innovation, and a dedication to quality.
The designated project leader for Kvantum Inc is Parag Agrawal. Sanjay Kumar, Rakesh Biradar, Gaurav
Patel and Amit Karanjawala will be attached to the team as strategic advisors.
Please review the following biographies for more information about the team recommended for
Kvantum Inc . Naturally, the full iProgrammer team is available to assist as needed.
He has a Masters degree in Computer Science (MCS) from the University of Pune. He is also an active
early stage investor in companies in the technology services space and a mentor for several technology
start-ups.

He doesn’t speak much but yeah loves to code and code and code and yeah code.

With many ongoing contracts and a consistent record of contract renewals, many of them for over 5
years now, is a testimony to our quality, abilities and outstanding service.
But you may be wondering if you need to be “technically savvy” in order to use our services. Well luckily
for you the word “technology” only resides within our own walls! Yep, you’ll like our friendly staff, and
quickly learn that if you want to discuss things “technologically” then you will find plenty of folks here
who can do it as well as anyone. But, if you don’t have a clue about all this stuff, don’t worry. You’ll find
we don’t speak “techno babble” to anyone unless they ask. Instead, we use good old, “down-to-earth-
layman-speak” for making sure you completely understand all aspects of your project.
Values
iProgrammer’s values shape the way we do our work, the projects we pursue and the interactions we
have with our customers, partners and suppliers. We pledge to:
