FOUNDED IN 2004 BY JULIAN DRAKE
From Humble Beginnings
iFactory was born in 2004 when Director Julian Drake set up shop in the old Peters Ice Cream factory in West End. In need of a name—and preferring a practical approach—he landed on ‘iFactory,’ a nod to the company’s purpose as a factory for internet ideas and interactive solutions. The name stuck, and so did our commitment to innovation which went on to form our way of building websites.
By 2016, iFactory had outgrown its original space. Julian purchased a dedicated building in Bowen Hills, doubling our studio size and creating room for the next evolution of the business.
Today, iFactory continues to push the boundaries of digital excellence. We deliver cutting-edge web solutions that seamlessly integrate website design, eCommerce, digital marketing, application development, and systems integration.
Project Budgets
When project requirements are well known and a specific budget has been assigned, then a fixed-price project quote is the way to go. Most projects also specify a contingency budget to allow for minor scope or schedule changes and are a later reflection on how a specific piece of work should be delivered. Our contingency fees are capped to help fix-price the quote for client’s accounting certainty.
Retainer Budgets
When the scope of work is not finalised or is going to be undertaken over a long period of time, it can be best to engage iFactory with a retainer to provide predictability in monthly billing. We roll over any unused time so our clients can make later use of their investment. Retainers allow our client’s in-house managers to get work done, as once a retainer is approved a new block of hours is available each month without seeking further management approval.
Prepaid Hours
Often, a lot of work needs to be done but due to the large number of tasks and a flexible scope it’s difficult to price. iFactory offers PrePaid blocks of hourly service that receive discounts when purchased in large amounts. With Hourly blocks the client gets the certainty of knowing their maximum financial exposure, with a discount applied upfront and flexibility to evolve the project as it develops.
We've Worked With
We are appreciative of having had the opportunity to work and a great many clients, big and small.
