The team that builds it stays to run it.
Twelve months. Three phases. One named pod from kick-off to year end. Monthly sprint cadence for new builds, daily support in between. One predictable fee.
You end up explaining your own business to a team you've never met.
The senior people who won the deal disappear at go live. A different team starts learning your platform from scratch. Change orders pile up for work the original SOW should have anticipated. The partner you signed becomes hard to recognise.
Twelve months of build and support, run by the same pod from start to finish.
Kongo runs your HubSpot implementation as a twelve month programme. After go live, the same team carries you through hypercare and into BAU. New features build on a monthly sprint cadence, with support every day in between. One team for the year, on one predictable fee.
AI governance woven through every deliverable.
Discovery, AI readiness assessment, data migration and the core MVP build. We deliver the architecture that handles your primary business logic and establish governance boundaries.
Optimisation and secondary implementation. We build the remaining integrations and handle the exceptions real users surface. AI agent escalation paths are configured in this phase.
Builds and support continue, and AI governance keeps being refined. The system changes as your business changes.
Same Principal Solutions Architect, GTM Engineer and Customer Success Manager for the full twelve months.

Leads embed and scale from month seven through to year end. Carries the platform knowledge built during delivery into long-term success management.
A planned shift in role, not in team.
Your business doesn't think in workflows. We do that work for you.
Translation is the work of understanding how your business actually operates and converting that into precise, executable logic.
When your GM says "we're losing deals in the middle of the funnel", our GTM Engineers unpack what that means. Perhaps the sales team has no structured follow-up. Perhaps deal stages don't reflect reality, so nobody trusts the forecast.
We turn that into rules the system can run.
Production is the configuration, integration and deployment of everything inside your HubSpot platform. Workflows, automations, pipelines, properties, integrations, reporting.
Our GTM Engineers use AI-assisted tooling to build at volume. Oversight, quality control and governance apply at every step.
The execution that turns translated rules into a working system.
We control when we build. The rest of the time, we're on hand.
From Phase 2 onwards, new builds run on a monthly sprint cadence. One designated sprint week per month, planned and prioritised with you in advance. The other three weeks are for support, training, calls, questions and translation work on what is coming up next.
This is the part most prospects find counterintuitive. Continuous building doesn't lead to good outcomes. It leads to brittle platforms and decisions made without enough thinking. Translation and Production deserve different attention windows. The sprint cadence respects that.
Business-critical change requests do not have to wait for the sprint. Time-sensitive work is handled when it needs to be.
