How We Start Every Project: Our Discovery Process

A transparent look at how we begin every project at Power Digital. From initial consultation to detailed project specifications, learn what to expect when working with us.

Alex Nguyen

Technical Director

Every successful project starts with thorough discovery. At Power Digital, we've refined our discovery process over years of working with startups and enterprises across Singapore, Vietnam, and Australia. Here's exactly how we work.

Phase 1: Initial Consultation (Free)

Every engagement begins with a free 30-minute discovery call. During this call, we:

  • Understand your business and goals
  • Discuss the problem you're trying to solve
  • Explore potential technical solutions
  • Provide initial budget guidance
  • Answer any questions you have

Phase 2: Requirements Workshop

If we're a good fit, we schedule a deeper requirements workshop. This 2-4 hour session covers:

Business Requirements

  • Target users and their pain points
  • Key success metrics
  • Competitive landscape
  • Budget and timeline constraints

Technical Requirements

  • Feature prioritization (MoSCoW method)
  • Integration requirements
  • Performance expectations
  • Security and compliance needs

Phase 3: Solution Design

Our team creates detailed deliverables:

  • User Stories: Clear descriptions of each feature from the user's perspective
  • Wireframes: Low-fidelity layouts of key screens
  • Technical Architecture: System design, database schema, API structure
  • Project Plan: Sprint breakdown with milestones

Phase 4: Proposal & Agreement

We present a comprehensive proposal including:

  • Scope of work with detailed feature list
  • Timeline with milestone dates
  • Fixed-price or time-and-materials pricing
  • Payment schedule
  • Assumptions and exclusions

Why This Process Matters

Our discovery process ensures:

  • No surprises: Clear expectations from day one
  • Accurate estimates: We quote based on real requirements, not guesses
  • Aligned vision: Everyone understands what we're building and why
  • Faster development: Less rework because requirements are clear
