Implementation Project.
An Implementation Project is a fixed-scope build of the Kubernetes platform your team will operate. Senior engineers deliver working infrastructure against agreed outcomes (GitOps delivery and observability included), documented end-to-end and handed over with 30 days of post-handover assistance.
- Fixed scope, fixed fee
- Documented end-to-end
- 30-day post-handover support
What it is
A defined-scope build, delivered to your team.
This is a fixed-scope project to build the platform your team will use, typically from a Platform Readiness Review's findings or a requirements list you already have. You get working infrastructure, thorough documentation, and pairing with your engineers so they take over with confidence.
It is for teams that know what they need and want experienced operators to build it, not junior staff learning on your account. We build; your team runs it afterward. If you would rather delegate operations too, that is the Managed Platform.

What's in an Implementation Project
A working platform and the means to operate it.
You get a production Kubernetes platform configured for your requirements, and your engineers get everything needed to take full ownership.
Cluster foundations
The cloud and Kubernetes foundation the platform runs on.
Cloud infrastructure across the major providers (AWS, Google Cloud, Azure, Naver Cloud), with networking, IAM, and security
Managed Kubernetes or OpenShift, with node pools sized for your workloads
Ingress, service mesh, DNS, and certificates
Storage and stateful workload handling
Delivery and observability
How the platform ships changes, and how your team sees what it is doing.
GitOps delivery pipeline with promotion, rollback, and drift control
Observability for metrics, logs, traces, dashboards, and alerts
Lifecycle documentation: upgrade procedures, addon update guides, deprecation notes
Ongoing upgrades belong to the Managed Platform.
Operability baseline
The platform made reproducible and operable, the way that fits your environment.
Infrastructure-as-Code, or configuration applied to existing infrastructure
RBAC, policy enforcement, and secret management
Cost tracking and waste detection
These are the baselines of a healthy platform, not a substitute for a certification-grade security audit.
Who this is for
For teams that know what they need built.
Common situations where a fixed-scope build is the right shape:
Not sure what needs to be built? If scope is unclear, or your team and leadership disagree on priorities, start with a Platform Readiness Review.
Teams with a remediation plan
You have the plan; it needs executing
A Readiness Review remediation plan (ours or an internal audit's) needs to be delivered, properly.
Teams launching a new platform
It has to be right from day one
You want a new production platform built correctly at the start, not reworked over the following year.
Teams leaving legacy infrastructure
There is a deadline to migrate off
You are moving off VMware, on-prem Kubernetes, or an aging managed service, and the landing platform must be ready in time.
Teams that inherited a platform
It needs work your team cannot staff
The platform you took over needs major work, and you lack the time or the senior experience to do it in-house.
Teams entering a regulated phase
Controls must be ready before an audit
Platform controls (RBAC, policies, secrets, audit trails) must be in place and documented before a compliance audit.
How we work
Five phases. One outcome.
A clear scope and structured milestones. Each phase ends with a checkpoint, so there are no surprises and no renegotiations.
Phase
01
Scoping
We confirm scope, agree deliverables and milestones, and fix the fee. If the scope isn't ready, we recommend a Readiness Review first. We do not take on open-ended Implementation Projects.
Phase
02
Design
We document the target architecture and configuration before changing anything. Your team reviews and approves before we build.
Phase
03
Build
We build to the approved design: independently by default, pairing with your engineers where it adds value or when you ask. Senior engineers review all work before it lands.
Phase
04
Validate
We verify the build against the design, walk the runbooks, check for drift, and test under realistic failure conditions. We finish only when it demonstrably works in your environment.
Phase
05
Handover
Final documentation lands in your wiki, and we run pairing sessions with the engineers who will operate the platform. You get 30 days of post-handover assistance; after that, ownership is fully yours.
Duration varies with scope, from a few weeks for a focused build to several months for a full platform with multiple environments. The target timeline is confirmed at scoping and written into the contract, along with the checkpoints where we need your team: kickoff, design review, regular check-ins during Build, and active collaboration in Validate and Handover.
What you own at handover
Yours to run, fully.
Infrastructure
Running infrastructure
We build and test everything against the approved design, then deploy it into your production environment.
Documentation
Reference architecture
A clear record of what was built and the reasons behind it, written into your team's wiki.
Operations
Runbook set
Routine operations, on-call steps, incident response, and upgrade procedures, documented.
Support
30 days of post-handover assistance
Covers adjustments, follow-up questions, and any unexpected issues after we hand over.
Frequently asked
What teams ask before they start.
What does an Implementation Project include?
A production Kubernetes platform built to a fixed scope: cluster foundations, GitOps delivery, observability, and an operability baseline. The scope is written down before work starts, and everything delivered is documented end-to-end.
How is the project priced?
Fixed scope, fixed fee, billed in KRW. The price is agreed before the project starts and does not move with hours spent; scope changes are handled explicitly, not absorbed into a running meter.
Who operates the platform after handover?
Your team does. The project is built so you can run it without Todea: the documentation covers architecture and day-to-day operations, and handover includes 30 days of post-handover assistance while your engineers take over.
What documentation do we get?
End-to-end coverage of what was built and how to operate it: the platform's architecture, its delivery pipelines, and its operational procedures. The goal is that a new engineer can join your team and find the platform explained, not tribal knowledge.
What if we don't want to operate it ourselves?
Choose the Managed Platform engagement instead: Todea installs, operates, upgrades, and evolves the platform under a 12-month partnership, with support tiers for business-hours or 24×7 coverage.
