Scope

What this is not.

  • A replacement for the handover documentation. The sprint ends with full documentation and a structured handover specifically designed to make the client's team self-sufficient. The retainer is for firms that want continued access to AIpex — not firms that can't operate the automations independently.
  • An open-ended consulting engagement. The retainer covers the delivered automations only. New build work is scoped and priced as a new Workflow Integration Sprint.
  • Available for automations not built by AIpex. The retainer is designed for automations built during an AIpex Workflow Integration Sprint. For automations built by other providers, contact us to discuss what support is feasible.
  • A commitment. Both tiers are month-to-month with no lock-in period. Cancel with 30 days notice.
Audience

Who this is for.

The Ongoing Support Retainer is designed for NZ professional services firms that have completed a Workflow Integration Sprint with AIpex and want continued confidence that their automations are running correctly.

It is the right choice for the operations manager who wants to know that issues will be caught and resolved quickly without managing the automation infrastructure themselves. It is equally suited to firms that want continued access to AIpex for minor enhancements and ongoing workflow opportunity identification.

Many firms are comfortable maintaining the automations independently after the sprint handover — the documentation is written for that purpose. The retainer is optional, not a prerequisite for continued operation.
