Project management: your project under control

Project management is the work of whoever plans, coordinates and controls a project from idea to delivery. In plain terms: someone takes care of timelines, costs and people, so you don’t have to chase anyone. At Donkey Lab you get a single point of contact who follows every phase, from the first brief to launch.

What we do

Requirements analysis and definition of the scope: what gets done, what doesn’t, and in what order of priority.

Phased planning, with milestones and realistic timelines: a clear roadmap to follow.

Coordination of developers, designers and suppliers in a single workflow.

Monitoring of progress, costs and risks, with clear updates at every phase.

Who it's for

For business owners and managers who have a digital project in mind (a website, a management tool, a piece of software) and want a single contact who sees it through without surprises, even without technical skills.

How we work

01

Brief and analysis

20 minutes by video call: we understand the project’s goals, constraints and priorities.

02

Roadmap and quote

A phased plan with timelines and costs in writing, at a fixed price.

03

Management and delivery

We coordinate the work, keep you updated at every phase and hand over files, data and access.

Project management turns an idea into a concrete project, with dates, costs and responsibilities. Without clear direction, even a simple job risks running long, costing more and disappointing.

What project management is, in plain terms

Imagine you’re building a house: someone has to decide the order of the work, coordinate the bricklayers, electricians and suppliers, and make sure the schedule and budget are respected. Project management does the same for a digital project: a website, business software, an app or a program.

The benefits of having a single point of contact

  • Fewer hand-offs: you talk to one person, not five different suppliers.
  • Clear timelines and costs: before you start, you know what happens and when.
  • Faster decisions: whoever coordinates knows the whole project and what makes sense.
  • No surprises: risks and delays surface early, not on the invoice.

The phases of a project

  1. Kick-off and analysis: goals, constraints, priorities and success criteria.
  2. Planning: phases, timelines, costs and responsibilities, in writing.
  3. Execution: the work itself, coordinated across design, development and content.
  4. Control and testing: quality checks, fixes and approvals.
  5. Closing and delivery: files, data and access in your hands, with an explanation of how to use them.

Agile or waterfall?

With the agile method you work in short cycles and adjust priorities and direction along the way; in the waterfall model the phases follow a fixed sequence. We choose the method according to the project: for a website with defined content a clear sequence is enough; for software that evolves, working in cycles makes more sense.

How we measure success

With clear goals at the start, visible results at every phase and the handover of files, data and access. The project has succeeded when it does what we agreed, on the planned schedule and budget.

Who runs your project

Every project is overseen by Eros Belotti, founder and Project Manager of Donkey Lab, who has over 20 years of experience in sales and marketing, together with developers, designers and specialists selected over years of working together. Project management applies to all of our services: from the website to the business software.
