Frequently Asked Questions

We specialize in four core areas: 

• Product Management 
• Project Management
• Digital Transformation
• Outsourced Software Development

Each service can be provided on its own or combined into an end-to-end engagement — from strategy and planning through execution and continuous improvement. 

We partner with startups, scale-ups, enterprises, and public-sector organizations. Our frameworks adapt to different sizes and maturity levels, ensuring value whether you’re building your first product or modernizing enterprise operations. 

Not exclusively. Our expertise coming from the software industry is fully transferable to other industries. We have experience working for the government sector as well as for privately held companies — helping them navigate growth, change, and modernization challenges. 

We don’t force a one-size-fits-all model. We assess your current practices, identify gaps, and then blend proven frameworks (Agile, PMO standards, product management best practices) with your company’s culture and operations. 

We fully understand how important it is to keep business running smoothly. That’s why we prioritize minimal disruption in every engagement. 

Through change management, clear communication, and phased rollouts, we make sure teams adopt new tools and processes smoothly while core operations continue with minimal interruption. 

Our Project Management consulting services ensure you effectively utilize PMO frameworks and practices, so initiatives are delivered on time, within scope, on budget, and with minimized risk. 

Product Management consulting focuses on implementing efficient product operations frameworks that enable clients to build and scale products fitting market needs and driving long-term growth. 

Together, they close the gap between strategy and execution.

Yes, a Digital Transformation can feel overwhelming if not approached properly. Our 4-step Proven Process breaks it into manageable phases — assessing your current state, aligning priorities, and building a roadmap that balances quick wins with long-term outcomes. This approach reduces risk while creating momentum across your organization. 

AI consultancy is part of our core expertise. We help clients explore, validate, and implement AI solutions — whether that’s integrating AI into existing products, optimizing business processes with automation, or advising on governance and ethical considerations. 

We focus on outcomes, not hype. Our AI approach begins with problem definition and measurable KPIs, followed by pilot projects and phased adoption. This ensures AI isn’t just a trend, but a driver of efficiency, customer value, and sustainable growth. 

Our Europe-based senior development team delivers enterprise-grade quality at competitive rates. Unlike typical offshore models, we emphasize security, transparency, and close collaboration with your business stakeholders. 

We follow strict development standards, peer reviews, rigorous testing, and security-by-design principles. We also comply with data protection best practices and ensure our clients’ intellectual property is fully safeguarded. 

Engagements can often begin within just a few days. Our ready-to-go team reduces ramp-up time from months to days, letting you accelerate progress without delays. Start times may vary slightly depending on our commitments to other clients, but we always plan capacity to ensure responsiveness. 

We offer flexible pricing options: 

• Fixed price/fixed-scope -  best for clearly defined projects with agreed timelines, deliverables, and scope. You’ll know upfront what the total cost will be. 
• Time-and-Materials -  Ideal for evolving projects where requirements may change. You pay for the actual time and resources used, giving you flexibility and adaptability. 
• Dedicated teams - Perfect for long-term initiatives where you need ongoing capacity. You get a committed team that works as an extension of your organization, with predictable monthly costs. 

This flexibility allows us to align with your budget, timeline, and delivery goals while maintaining transparency and predictability. 

We offer both. It really depends on client's specific needs - some clients engage us in full consulting capacity, while others are looking only for advisory services, anywhere from a single one-hour consultation to focused workshops. 

Whether you need ongoing support or a quick expert perspective, we tailor the level of engagement to match your needs.

Getting started is simple!

Go to the Contact page, fill out the short form, and send us a message. We’ll reach out to schedule a discovery call to understand your challenges and goals. 

From there, we outline a tailored proposal, define the engagement model, and set expectations for delivery — so you know exactly what to expect before work begins.

Many firms offer expertise, but at Smartifico we bring more — honesty, clarity, and a genuine commitment to your success. 

Our strength lies in combining proven frameworks with practical execution, blending product, project, and transformation expertise. This is reinforced by certifications such as AIPC™ (Artificial Intelligence in Product Management) and Digital Transformation Leadership, ensuring both credibility and future-ready insight. 

What truly sets us apart, however, is Our Approach: when we shake hands, it’s more than an agreement — it’s a promise we keep. 

Our clients shorten time-to-market, reduce project risks, and unlock sustainable growth. Whether through improved operations, successful product launches, or modernized digital capabilities, we focus on delivering measurable business outcomes.
