Plus-fit scoping ahead of an agency quote

Advisory engagement before the merchant signed a quote. Pressure-tested the Shopify Plus assumption, sized the project honestly, and shaped the merchant's own scope document.

Review all the big pieces to provide a technical roadmap mapped to Shopify features

What the engagement looked at

  • Platform-fit read — is Plus the right call here vs. Advanced, vs. headless, vs. another platform entirely? Custom big rocks identified.
  • Architecture review at a high level — current state, where the seams should sit, what needs to move, what can stay.
  • Honest sizing — what kind of project is this really, and what’s the complexity level to build the eventual scope without missing core elements.

What was handed over

Questions checklist - validated with stakeholders, a phased outline of what the merchant should ask the agency to commit to, and the key points to include in the merchant’s own scope document. Some merchants move forward; some don’t. Both leave with a written, defensible decision.
