Unlike working according to the WPE, we do not provide an estimate for a project or tasks. We allocate a full time team (40‑45 hours for each member of the team). You get weekly reports on the hours spent from the internal redmine time tracking system, but at least a full 40 hours per team member must be used up each week. Otherwise the client pays for the full load regardless. The team is formed for projects with weekly load from 120 to 640 hours.
Read moreWhen the PRD is completed and approved, you will receive a Work-Plan Estimate (WPE), with an accuracy of +/- 20% and a time frame within a margin of 3‑5 business days. The Work-Plan Estimate (WPE) breaks down the project into tasks ranging from 15 min to 4 hours.
Read moreWe provide both the WPE approach which guarantees a detailed estimate which allows you to better plan out your project and a more flexible approach for long term projects from 1‑3 years or more by building a dedicated team. Our project managers will create comfortable conditions for you and your guys so that you feel that we are part of your team.

Today we will share with you the news and atmosphere from our office in Tallinn. Despite the common perception of Estonia as a calm and steady place, which is associated with calmness, regularity and even some unhurriedness, in our company the team works in “Fast and furious” mode (as evidenced by the office's racing car in the photo). We are ready to expand our "abz working family" in Estonia and welcome new employees. So, we invite: - Web Designer - QA engineer -Front-end developer All interested can contact hr@abz.agency to find out all the details.

It's hard to believe that two years have already passed since our colleagues joined our team at abz.agency. To celebrate this milestone, we decided to congratulate both individuals on the same day. We wanted to make sure that each of them received a special gift that they had been wanting. One received a pair of Xbox wireless headphones and the other received a Krups capsule coffee machine with a capsule test kit. We are thrilled to have them on our team and look forward to many more years of working together. Congratulations to both of you! At abz.agency, we place a high value on our team members and strive to cultivate lasting relationships, both within our organization and with our clients. We are always looking for talented individuals to join our team, if you are interested contact us on hr@abz.agency

We are excited to announce a new fluffy addition to our team! Although he may still be a junior member, he is already making his presence known with his diligent attendance of all meetings and stand-ups. He can often be found purring approvingly as he lounges beside the speaker. So, everyone is happy to share all their knowledge. Our office manager found him on a cold winter day warming up under her car in the parking lot outside the office and with the approval of management, we were able to welcome him into our office. We quickly provided all the necessary supplies and our team members even brought in some fun toys for him to play with. We're excited to have him as part of our team from now on! We gave him a nostalgic name which means a small piece of charcoal which is the same as the name of the Donetsk-Kyiv passenger train which is symbolic of connection to our roots.
Let’s briefly review our workflow with an average client on a WPE based project. Our client managers will be happy to go more in depth and provide further details. Contact us if you are interested.
Our managers are always in touch and ready to help you with the choice of collaboration format that suits your needs best: Work-Plan Estimate (WPE), Dedicated Team or Subcontracting. We will quickly review your project brief, ask additional questions and help you find the best way to move the project forward.
Discovery Phase is a service that our company provides for the development of PRD (Product Requirement Document). PRD is an engineering document (referred to as GD below), which includes a complete technical description of the project (up to each logo and button) and High-Fidelity Wireframes (referred to as WF below).
WPE (Work Plan - Estimate) - once we have a completed and approved PRD, you receive a Work Plan - Estimate with an accuracy of +/-20% for total hours and 3-5 days for deadline. Work Plan - Estimate will contain a detailed breakdown of the project as a whole into the 1-4 hour tasks.
Assigned team always consists of at least three people: a developer (frontend, backend or full stack), a Project Manager or a Team Lead (both are referred to as PM below) and a QA. It is often the case that if a project is very dynamic two QAs or more are included in order to ensure best performance and flexibility.
Usually during development we use one or more dev servers. Before deploying to the production server, if necessary, we use a stage server. Deployment to the production server is allowed only when all the checklists on the dev and stage servers have been successfully passed. After deployment to the production server a critical path test and all the additional tests of new functionality are mandatory.
Each task in a new, current or old project goes through the stage of updating technical documentation and updating wireframes/mockups to reflect new changes. Thus, the project always has up-to-date and complete technical documentation. This guarantees our clients project security, flexibility and independence from the contractor.
Choosing an appropriate methodology among Scrum, Kanban or task by task depends on a number of parameters like the project size, client’s preferences, whether it is an in-house project or collaboration with the client’s team. All our employees have clear regulations covering each of these cases, allowing us to be productive and flexible at the same time. Each particular methodology can only provide recommendations and not strict guidelines.
Once clients understand the rules of the game and start playing by the rules they come back to us again and again each time. This is how we build relationships with our clients which go on for years. We have clients with whom we have been working for 5, 7 and 10+ years. We are doing our best for you!
