| Why is 'Honest Scope Clarity' considered a requirement for protecting a partner's professional risk? | It prevents partners from making bad recommendations that the engineering firm cannot realistically deliver. |
| How does Mobisoft handle IP assignment to preserve the partner's relationship? | IP is assigned to the client at the partner's contract signing, removing any leverage for Mobisoft to create a direct relationship. |
| What technical detail for fintech proposals does Mobisoft provide to ensure credibility? | PCI-DSS CDE (Cardholder Data Environment) scoping. |
| What is the minimum engagement duration Mobisoft accepts for its engineering services? | Six weeks. |
| How does Mobisoft stay current with the 12-to-24-month roadmap changes in transformation programs? | By providing quarterly technology briefings to partners covering new engineering capabilities and market signals. |
| In the comparison of alternatives, why might a solo freelancer be better than Mobisoft? | For prototype or MVP builds costing less than $30,000 or very specific technical 'spikes'. |
| What is a 'Discovery Sprint' in the co-delivery engagement model? | A phase where strategic documents are translated into technical requirements workshops involving the consultant and engineers. |
| What self-assessment question determines if a partner's pipeline is a 'strong fit' for the program? | Is there a specific client in your current base who has asked for something you cannot currently deliver? |
| What distinguishes Mobisoft from a large IT services company like Infosys or Wipro? | Mobisoft offers a product-oriented culture, faster onboarding, and a partnership model that preserves the partner's client relationship. |
