FAQs

Straight answers before you enquire

Clear answers to the questions buyers ask most. If you need something more specific, send a short brief — we aim to reply within one business day.

Working with us

Who is SunMoon Consultancy best suited to?+

UK SMEs, mid-market organisations and product or technology leaders who need senior delivery for applications, mobile products or cloud platforms — without commissioning a large-firm transformation programme.

Do you work with startups?+

Yes, when there is a clear product outcome and budget for professional delivery. We are a strong fit for startups that need a dependable build partner rather than experimental freelancing.

Where are you based?+

We are based in Dunstable, United Kingdom, and collaborate with clients across the UK in person or remotely.

How quickly do you respond to enquiries?+

We aim to reply to new enquiries within one business day with practical next steps.

Cost, timelines and commercials

How much does software development cost?+

It depends on scope, complexity, integrations and quality requirements. We typically start with a discovery conversation or workshop so any estimate is based on evidence rather than guesswork. Contact us with a short brief for a tailored view.

How long does a typical project take?+

Smaller scoped builds can complete in weeks; larger application or migration programmes often run over several months in phases. Discovery clarifies a realistic timeline before you commit to a full build.

How do projects usually start?+

Most work begins with a discovery conversation or workshop to clarify outcomes, constraints and the right engagement shape before larger spend is committed.

Do you offer fixed-scope work?+

Yes where the problem is well understood. Where uncertainty is high, we recommend a discovery phase first so fixed scope is based on evidence.

Do you offer ongoing support after launch?+

Yes. Many clients continue with support, iteration and platform improvements after go-live. Handover is designed so you are not locked into undocumented knowledge either way.

Technology and delivery

What technologies do you specialise in?+

We commonly work with TypeScript, React, Next.js, Node.js, .NET, Java, iOS, Android, React Native, Flutter, AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, Kubernetes, Terraform and modern CI/CD. We stay platform-agnostic and recommend what fits your constraints.

Are you locked to a particular cloud or framework?+

No. We recommend technologies based on fit, maintainability and your team's ability to operate them.

Do you only build, or also advise?+

Both. Some clients need architecture and roadmap advice; others need full delivery. Many need a blend.

Will our team be able to maintain what you build?+

That is a design goal. We plan for documentation, pairing and handover so you are not dependent on undocumented knowledge.

Still deciding?

A short conversation is often enough to clarify fit, scope and a sensible first step.
