Flexible support
For ongoing, advisory or open-ended work.
Most RJDM projects are scoped and delivered for a fixed price.
Where the requirement is evolving, we can also work on a flexible day-rate basis. The rate depends on the expertise required, from production and development through to senior creative direction, technical leadership and consultancy.
You will always know the agreed rate before any work begins.
Typical uses
- Creative and technical direction
- Consultancy and discovery
- Reviews and specialist input
- Prototyping and open-ended development
- Additional support outside an agreed project scope
No padded teams. No junior people billed as senior specialists. Just the right expertise for the work.
The real cost
Cheap work is the most
expensive thing you can buy.
Getting it wrong
Cheap on paper.
Expensive in reality.
- Vague scope, mid-project bloat
- Generic work nobody uses
- Endless rounds of revisions
- Delays that cascade
Investing in getting it right
Clear plan.
Clear outcome.
- Clear scope, day one
- Work that gets adopted
- Senior eyes on every brief
- Delivered on time
Clear scope, review and testing help reduce rework, delays and weak adoption.

Client Trust
Trusted by global brands.
Respected by the ones you won't see.
In 25 years we've worked with leading organisations across many industries. Most of it sits behind NDAs, so this is only a fraction.
“Cannot recommend highly enough. From small ideas to global delivery.”
“Professional, creative, and consistently delivering under pressure.”
“They made complex simple. Every time.”
Before you ask
The questions people actually have.
Short, candid answers to the things that usually stop people picking up the phone.
What if my budget is lower than your ranges?
Tell us anyway. We'd rather scope a smaller, sharper piece that pays back than turn a real conversation away. If we're not the fit, we'll point you to someone who is.
What is actually included in a project price?
Example deliverables, production and delivery formats are proposal-specific. Scope and complexity determine the quote. Hosting, maintenance and support arrangements, including any recurring charges, are also proposal-specific rather than assumed to be unlimited.
Do your prices include VAT?
No. All displayed prices and budget ranges are exclusive of VAT at 20%.
How many revision rounds should we expect?
Two rounds are usually sufficient. We aim to collect all the information beforehand and rarely need more than two rounds. Additional rounds are charged at our discretion.
How long will delivery take?
Delivery durations are proposal-specific. We agree the timetable for your project in the proposal rather than promise a standard duration for a starting price.
How quickly can you start?
Acknowledgement and scoping are different steps. A real person acknowledges your enquiry, then we confirm what is needed to scope it. A straightforward brief may be scoped quickly; substantial platforms may need discovery. We agree a start date after reviewing scope and availability.
Do you work fixed price or day rate?
Both. Projects with a clear outcome are fixed price after scoping, so you know the number before you commit. For ongoing advisory, creative direction, or open-ended work we work on a flexible day-rate basis. The rate depends on the expertise required and is agreed before any work begins.
What happens if the scope changes mid-project?
We discuss the change and its effect on price and timing before agreeing the revised scope.
Can we start small and grow from there?
Yes, and a lot of clients do. One animation, one workshop, one prototype. If it lands, we scale from there. No retainer pressure.
