COTS Services
COTS Services (Commercial-Of-The-Shelf Services) are provided on a Time and Materials basis and are described using a simple Service Schedule. We will develop this schedule following an initial consultation.
They are ideal for:
- Identifying needs and initial technical requirements,
- Mentoring teams of up to 4 people on the use of our products,
- Developing Statements of Work (SOWs) for Custom Services.
COTS Services are usually of 1-20 days of effort, where a day is defined to be 8 hours. We perform knowledge transfer and we summarise the results in a technical memorandum. This can contain technical results, recommendations, user needs, technical requirements, or SOW for your follow-on projects.
We offer two types of COTS Services:
- On-Site COTS Services: We perform these at your site, and
- Remote COTS Services: We perform these at Simbus’ site. We may use video, email, and telephone for communication.
A mix of on-site and remote work can be achieved by purchasing day units of both types of COTS Services. Travel, lodging, and subsistence costs are built into the price for On-Site COTS Services and depend on your location and distance from us (we are based in Glasgow, Scotland).
We will invoice you immediately after the completion of each of the ordered COTS Services. COTS Services are performed according to the Simbus Services Agreement.

Custom Services
Custom Services
Custom Services are offered on a Fixed Price basis. Custom Services require a mutually-agreed Statement of Work (SOW) based on a pre-defined User Requirements Document.
We will define the User Requirements Document or refine an existing one during one or more COTS Services. Our SOW will detail the mutually-agreed tasks, timeframes, meetings, milestones and deliverables.
The effort of Custom Services is 20-40 days. As a product-focused business, we are limited to 40 days maximum effort at this time.
Custom Services deliverables may include reports, software, and associated documentation, or a combination of them. We perform Custom Services at Simbus premises typically although it may be necessary to have some meetings at your site.
The quoted price of Custom Services is exclusive of travel, lodging, and subsistence costs incurred. We will invoice you immediately after a mutually-agreed payment milestone is reached. Custom Services are performed according to the Simbus Services Agreement.
