## Client Responsibility

Project timeline depends partly on client responsiveness.

## Deadline Policy

kryDesign respects agreed deadlines.

If urgent timeline is required:

- Acceleration possible by agreement

If timeline is unrealistic:

- Studio informs client in advance

Quality is never sacrificed for artificial speed.

## Workload Model

The studio works on 1–2 projects simultaneously.

This ensures:

- Personal involvement
- Controlled quality
- Direct communication
- Reduced project risks
