Selected work

Bring an outcome the factory can own.

sXs takes on bounded products and critical systems where a small, accountable production system is a genuine advantage.

Working modes

Build first. Advisory when it is the right output.

No seat-based staffing and no advice sold by the minute. Scope follows the product outcome, risk, ownership, and release target.

01 Primary

Commission a Build

A bounded product or critical system with explicit ownership, acceptance criteria, and a release target.

  • Working software
  • Source and release artifacts
  • Documentation and ownership path
02 Primary

Adapt a Capability

Apply or extend existing factory infrastructure inside your product, repository, or agent environment.

  • Capability fit and boundary
  • Adapted implementation
  • Verification and transfer
03 Selective

Factory Partnership

A longer collaboration for products that benefit from repeated releases and shared production learning.

  • Release cadence
  • Evolving verification surface
  • Reusable non-confidential capability
04 Advisory

Decision Review

A focused product, architecture, or explicit-versus-learned boundary decision when more software is not yet the right output.

  • Pre-read
  • Working review
  • Written decision artifact

Good factory fit

A clear outcome. A real constraint. An accountable release.

  1. 01The intended product outcome can be stated clearly.
  2. 02sXs can own a bounded release rather than supply interchangeable capacity.
  3. 03The work benefits from a small senior production system.
  4. 04The client retains code, decisions, and an operable ownership path.
  5. 05Non-confidential learning can improve the factory without exposing client material.

First message

Start with the product and the constraint.

A short, concrete note is enough. The prefilled email asks for the information needed to decide whether the factory is a fit.

A useful first note includes

  1. 01Product or system in one sentence
  2. 02Intended user or outcome
  3. 03Current state
  4. 04Principal constraint
  5. 05Desired release horizon
  6. 06Relevant repository or brief
