Architecture on paper before the estimate
Rouslan Trouchkovskii writes architecture before the estimate. Modules, data flows, integrations and exclusions each get a sentence the estimate can reference.
The document names what is not included. Wishes that stay outside scope are listed as excluded, not as implied later work.
Security, operations and GDPR constraints sit in the same text. A design that ignores retention or payment rules is corrected before build starts.
Development starts only after both sides can point to the same paragraph for the next milestone. Changes go through a written addendum.
What matters
- Modules and flows named in writing
- Exclusions listed, not implied
- Security and GDPR in the same document
- Changes via written addendum
Frequently asked questions
Is a workshop enough?
A workshop produces input. The scope document is what the estimate and milestones use.
Who owns the document after handover?
The customer receives the text with the repository and diagrams. United Solutions keeps no hidden branch of the scope.
