Prepared by: iProgrammer Solutions
( C o n fi d e n ti a l ) P a g e | 1
I. Introduction
iProgrammer is pleased to submit this proposal for auto spare parts listing ecommerce portal as per the
requirements and specifications received from TheSkyGarage team.
We respectfully submit the following proposal, 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:
( C o n fi d e n ti a l ) P a g e | 2
(a) What have you done since yesterday?
(b) What are you planning to do today? and
(c) Do you have any problems preventing you from accomplishing your goal?
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 TheSkyGarage’s team 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 TheSkyGarage.
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.
( C o n fi d e n ti a l ) P a g e | 3
Launch
iProgrammer works with it’s 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
is a problem that results in the inability to launch as planned. Our goal is to ensure that the
app(s)/website(s) go live and as planned.
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 TheSkyGarage team. iProgrammer prides itself on being able
to provide our clients with responsive service. iProgrammer can provide ongoing support at our
standard hourly rate of INR 750 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 INR 1250 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.
The approximate timeline for this project would be 100 working days.
*NOTE: The turnaround time depends on timely feedback communication from the Client to/from
iProgrammer.

VI. Company
Knowing as much information about the company you are working with is a critical factor in making a
decision. To this end, iProgrammer includes the following information to help you get to know us.
Overview
Founded in early 2007, iProgrammer was created in response to a growing business need for proficient,
affordable and dependable programming services without the need for bidding competition or concerns
about reliability and price. Our services span a wide range of programming needs – including outsourced
product development, custom application development, mobile applications development, cloud server
monitoring and maintenance, application maintenance, web designing, search engine optimization, web
usability and a host of other useful services.
We employ the agile development methodology and follow the Software Development Life Cycle
(SDLC) that is suitable for your business applications. Thus our quality and expert programming, our
unique development methodology and favorable delivery model ensures completion of projects within
stipulated time and provides visibility into the progress of your projects on a daily and weekly basis. 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.
( C o n fi d e n ti a l ) P a g e | 12
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:

Client will provide the Contractor with the name(s) of the Client’s proposed webhosting company, developer
account details for the app etc. Whenever the Contractor can, it will research and notify the Client of any
potential problems or conflicts with the hosting needs of the site/app versus services offered by the proposed
hosting company/app platform. However, it will be the Client’s responsibility to ensure with the hosting company
that the services offered by the hosting company are compatible with the site requirements.
After receipt of all the outstanding payments, the Contractor will transfer the site to the webhosting company of
the Client’s choice.
