AGREEMENT
CLIENT is hiring SKDesignAgency. to perform development services for the total fixed price of $11,000.00. CLIENT acknowledges that the price quoted is based on the information provided and discussed with SKDesignAgency. CLIENT further acknowledges that if SKDesignAgency. determines additional work not documented is needed, the price may increase. CLIENT will have the opportunity to review and approve before acceptance.
Â
WHAT DO BOTH PARTIES AGREE TO DO?
As our client, you have the power to enter into this contract on behalf of your company or organization. CLIENT agrees to provide us with everything necessary to complete the project, including logo, text, images, link(s) to social media, hosting credentials, and any other information we request and in the format we require. We wish to avoid any delays. CLIENT agrees to adhere to the payment schedule outlined in this agreement. SKDesignAgency. will perform requested services and carry out all work in a professional and timely manner.
TIMELINE
Our estimated time required to complete the project is 3-4 months. Work will commence upon receiving a signed contract and the non-refundable initial deposit. SKDesignAgency. will rely on CLIENT to provide the necessary assets (including but not limited to text, photos, social media, products, pricing, etc.) and approvals for us to complete your app and to avoid impacting your launch date. In the event of any delay in the performance of this contract over which CLIENT has no control, the parties agree to extend the date performance and delivery on a day-for-day basis.
LAUNCH
When the app is ready for launch, you have a maximum of 60-days to provide us with your hosting and domain information. The app is eligible to be removed from our server without notice after 60-days. Extensions are available upon request.
STATEMENT OF WORK
The fixed price reflects everything previously discussed, including correspondence via email, in-person, or phone call. The breakdown in the proposal includes the scope of work, project objectives, tasks, deliverables, terms & conditions, and payment. Items not included in the proposal are not part of the project, nor have they been included in the quoted price.
ADDITIONS
Please thoroughly review the Statement of Work. If you have any specific requests, changes in tasks, changes in deliverables, or any scope modifications — beyond what was agreed and signed off on — additional billable hours are available at our hourly rate of $100.
ALLOWANCES
CLIENT is responsible for the cost of any outside paid asset, including but not limited to hosting, domains, SSL certificates, third-party plugins, stock images, and premium fonts. In addition, we cannot be held liable for the functionality of third-party plugins or software, recommended or otherwise.
COMMERCIALIZING
Nothing in this contract shall prevent CLIENT from commercializing the app in any manner or modifying or improving the app with the assistance of SKDesignAgency. according to terms to be determined, or third parties, at CLIENT’s discretion, following delivery and final payment.
PAYMENT SCHEDULE
Like a parking ticket, this agreement is non-transferable and non-refundable. The initial deposit does not constitute a credit, and therefore cannot go toward our other services. You are accountable for the remaining balance of your contract — except to the extent that SKDesignAgency. is in breach or does not complete the service reflective of the payment.
LIABILITY
SKDesignAgency will do everything possible to deliver a high-quality APP. We accept no liability for your sales, revenue, or the success of your website/business directly, indirectly, or consequentially.
