How We Work​

Sitepact JA builds and maintains high quality websites and platforms for businesses across Jamaica and beyond.

Our primary model is subscription based because it produces the best long-term results. However, we also take on one-off development projects when they make sense.

What we do not do is competitive proposal theater, unpaid consulting, or beauty contests.

This page explains how engagement works in both cases.

Step 1. Initial Conversation

Every project begins with a short conversation.

We use this to determine:

  • What you want to build
  • Your timeline
  • Your expectations
  • Whether your project is better suited for a subscription or a one-off engagement

We will tell you honestly which model fits your project.

Step 2. Kickstart Agreement

If we decide to move forward, you will sign a Project Kickstart Agreement.

This is a commitment that you will:

  • Provide content and assets on time
  • Give feedback promptly
  • Stay engaged so the project can move forward

We use this because projects only succeed when both sides are accountable.

Subscription Projects (Our Primary Model)

Most of our clients choose the subscription model.

Here is how it works:

1. Start the subscription

You pay the first month upfront. Billing does not begin rolling until:

  • The site is launched, or
  • 30 days have passed

Whichever comes first.

This creates commitment without charging a large upfront build fee.

2. Production

Once active:

  • We provide a shared Google Drive for content
  • We begin design and development

In most cases:

  • Around 75% of the site is ready within two weeks
  • Around 95% within 30 days

Final completion depends on how quickly content and feedback are provided.

3. Ongoing partnership

After launch, your subscription covers:

  • Hosting
  • Security
  • Updates
  • Improvements
  • Ongoing support

Your site is never abandoned or left to decay.

One-Off Development Projects

We also accept traditional one-off projects.

These follow a different structure:

  • 50% deposit upfront
  • Remaining payments in milestones
  • Clearly defined scope

These projects are usually more complex and require more documentation and coordination, which is why they are not our default offering.

About Proposals and RFPs

We do not participate in unpaid proposal competitions or beauty contests.

However, if your organization requires:

  • A formal proposal
  • Technical documentation
  • Architecture or planning

We are happy to provide this as a paid discovery or scoping phase.

This ensures:

  • You receive thoughtful, professional work
  • We are not giving away strategy or engineering for free

Serious projects are never a problem. Free consulting is.

Confidentiality

In both subscription and one-off projects, confidentiality is handled under our Confidentiality & NDA Policy.

We protect sensitive business information but do not operate as an invisible or white-label provider.
