OUR COMMITMENTS
Quality commitments
The concerns we hear most often, and how we address them
Diagnose before implementing
We identify the real management problem first, then decide what to implement — not the other way round.
Phased delivery, milestone acceptance
Each phase is confirmed separately; you can adjust direction before the next one starts.
Test first, then go live
Configuration is validated in a test environment before switching to production.
AI-assisted, consultant-reviewed
AI supports configuration and testing; every result is reviewed by a consultant before delivery.
Timesheets you can check
Every task records how long it took; a complete timesheet is provided at project close.
Scope and acceptance agreed upfront
Scope, exclusions and acceptance criteria are written down before signing; anything beyond is confirmed separately.
Not accepted, not billed as done
Work that fails the agreed acceptance criteria is redone until it passes.
Defects fixed within warranty
Issues caused by our configuration or development are fixed free of charge during the warranty period; the exact period is defined in the contract.
Full documentation handover
Configuration documents, module inventory and user manuals are handed over, so a future team can pick up where we left off.
HOW WE DIFFER
How we differ from other approaches
The common ways companies bring in a business system
| Buy software and do it yourself | Hire a software vendor | Mikorou | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Understand the business problem first | You have to map it yourself | Usually delivered against a given spec | Diagnose, then decide the system |
| Process and system implemented together | System and process stay separate | Focus on getting features live | Management, system and rollout in one |
| Transparent cost | Hidden effort is common | Mostly flat project pricing | Hourly billing, timesheets available |
| Cross-border and multi-language | Resources must be found elsewhere | Rarely covered | German, English and Chinese; experts on demand |
