01/ FIXED-PRICE PROJECT
A clear scope. A shared commitment.
Pilot Systems commits to a scope, deliverables, schedule and budget defined together, with one clear goal: to see the project through under the agreed conditions and with shared success criteria.
Scope
Features, deliverables and priorities are framed upfront, with validation criteria that give a clear, shared view of what needs to be delivered.
Schedule
The project is organised into stages, milestones and validation phases to track progress, make decisions at the right time and secure delivery.
Budget
The budget is defined for the agreed scope. Any changes or additional requests are identified, costed and decided before being carried out.
The fixed-price model suits projects whose goals and deliverables can be framed upfront. It gives every team a shared reference to steer progress and measure the project’s success.
02/ DEDICATED TEAMS
A stable team, integrated into your project.
We put together a team assigned to your project over the long term. It gradually learns its usage, constraints, processes and history, which makes exchanges smoother and production more efficient.
Developers
Profiles selected according to the technologies, business context and needs of the project, with a team that stays stable over time.
Lead
A technical lead who coordinates the team, guarantees the consistency of the work produced and ensures the quality of the deliverables.
Steering & methodology
An organisation built around methods, rituals and tools shared with your teams — task tracking, reporting, project exchanges and shared memory, notably through Trackr and Mattermost.
The value of a dedicated team: building on knowledge of the project and your processes to become more efficient over time.
03/ APPLICATION MAINTENANCE
Long-term development capacity.
Third-party application maintenance organises the maintenance and regular evolution of your application.
Maintain
Handle fixes and recurring needs.
Evolve
Develop new features on a regular basis.
Organise capacity
Plan work over time according to the project’s priorities.
Flexible invoicing
Work as needed, often through packs of days, with no rigid long-term volume commitment. Project steering is invoiced separately at an agreed percentage.
To maintain and evolve an application over time, with capacity matched to the project’s real needs.
04/ ON-DEMAND EXPERTISE
Expertise when you need it.
Call on our teams for an identified need, invoiced on time spent according to the skills and level of expertise involved.
Audit & diagnosis
Analysis & advice
Team reinforcement
Technical intervention
A flexible format to handle a one-off topic, absorb a peak in workload or quickly bring in a specific skill, with no commitment to a fixed-price scope.

What the day rate does not tell you
At equal price, three structural differences separate a dedicated nearshore team from buying days from an IT services company.
You pay for the day produced
Holidays, sick leave, training and time between assignments remain the provider’s responsibility. The volume ordered is the volume delivered.
Staffed in 2 weeks
A team of 40+ Full Stack developers already in place, versus 2 to 3 months of recruitment for a permanent hire in France.
AI-assisted development
Cursor, Codex and automated review built into the delivery chain: the velocity gain adds to the day-rate difference.
