Design systems — tokens, components & Storybook alignment
A system your team actually adopts — documented components, tokens, and governance so PMs stop filing ‘another button’ tickets.
Design system services for scaling product teams
Design system RFPs mention tokens, accessibility, and Storybook because engineering leads search those terms. We split audits from build vs adoption programs — many failed systems shipped code nobody used. Our SEO copy states that upfront to attract serious buyers.

What buyers get on this engagement
Fewer one-offs
Pull requests reference system issues — not mystery CSS.
Accessible defaults
Components ship with baseline a11y notes.
Cross-functional
Design and eng share a roadmap for the library.
Incremental
We can pilot on one product surface before org-wide mandates.
Phases from brief to handoff
Like our practice hubs and technology stack pages, we keep scope readable: written milestones, demo checkpoints, and assumed budgets before long commits — so procurement and founders stay aligned.
Audit
Coverage metrics, quick wins, roadmap.
Foundation
Tokens + primitives wired in code.
Expand
Composite components, docs site or Storybook.
Governance
RFC process, deprecations, contribution guide.
Typical bands before your final quote
| Phase / package | What is included | Typical timeline | Assumed from |
|---|---|---|---|
| System audit | Metrics deck + phased quote | 1–2 wks | ~$5k–$14k |
| MVP system | Tokens, 12–25 components, docs baseline | 6–12 wks | ~$28k–$75k |
| Enterprise program | Multi-brand, internationalization, visual regression CI | 14–30+ wks | ~$75k–$200k+ |
Assumed bands are typical before unusual integrations, heavy compliance, or bespoke UI — we confirm fees in writing after a short brief. Most engagements are milestone-invoiced in USD.
