“To do multiple things at once is to do none” –Publilius Syrus
“The farther away a reward is in the future, the smaller the immediate motivation to achieve it” – Gary Keller
To deliver consistent volume and visible turnaround times on all projects, we developed an agile scheduling and workload system. This offers better planning for both us and you.
We do this by allowing only “2 Active Tasks” and “1 Active Activity” per subscription at any time. Each task is simply defined or agreed as work that can be completed between 2 hours to 2 working days. For example, this could be one configuration of components, finishing a section of a design guideline document, a set of features that can be added in 3D CAD, proposing a single UX workflow, or remedying a prototype anomaly.
A cluster of associated tasks is an activity. If an Activity is to be monitored, it should be defined and agreed as a cluster of tasks that take no more than two weeks, and no more than two reviews to approve. We don’t ask that these be written down. But they much be kept in mind. Where necessary teams will maintain tasks or issue lists in an Excel spreadsheet within a Microsoft Teams Channel, or Google Sheets document in a shared workspace, or whatever application you prefer. Note that maintaining lists will eat into the time available for completing the task.
These limits are for a single subscription. If you need more volume at one time, you can add multiple subscriptions.
A cancellation is equivalent to an indefinite pause. You may send such notice to bang@bangid.com or to a representative. We will keep your logins and account active so you can access all previously submitted files for up to 3 weeks until the end of your current billing period.
You agree to pay the fees specified during registration in full at the beginning of each month prior to any services being rendered by Bang Design under this Agreement. Your access to services and files may be stopped in the event of non-payment of applicable fees.
You represent and warrant to Bang Design that the provided billing information is accurate, up to date, and that you’re authorized to make the payment.
Bang Design may be required by applicable laws to charge users with indirect taxes (such as Sales Tax, VAT or GST) or to withhold taxes. Any amount Bang Design will be required to collect will be in addition to the purchase amount and subscription fees payable by the Client.
Clients are responsible for paying any direct or indirect taxes, including any GST, VAT, or income tax, which may apply to them depending on residency, location or otherwise, under provisions of their jurisdiction.

Some of the services on Bang Design may involve the production of prototypes or procurement of samples that need to be delivered to you. These are typically produced by one of our ecosystem partners, chosen based on empirical evidence.
No Warranty, and Invoicing and Shipping for Physical Deliverables
No warranty can be given on prototype quality. ‘Corrections’ are at the discretion of the prototype or part manufacturer. Also, prototypes are built to validate a set of assumptions in the design. If such assumption is invalidated or cannot be validated on account of prototype part quality, the appropriate approach is “remedy” the prototype as much as possible, refine the design based on new information acquired, and manufacture more prototypes with process controls to enable specific new quality requirements. This is an iterative process.
No Warranty, and Invoicing and Shipping for Physical Deliverables
We will negotiate a part or prototype price for you. There are two options for payment to the ecosystem partner.
Shipping
For parts shipped by us, a transparent shipping fee will be charged. The payment terms are 7 days from receipt of invoice for this too.
Bang Design does not handle or guarantee shipping, tracking, quality, and condition of items or their delivery and shall not be responsible or liable for any damages or other problems resulting from shipping. We will provide the tracking number if available over messaging service when delivering the prototype or sample.
