# 06 · SNS Software — Scaffold / Research / TODO
**Status:** Planned · **Tagline:** *Software Engineered to Fit*
**Entity:** SNS Software LLC (operating subsidiary of SnS Network Solutions Holdings LLC)
**Liability tier:** **Medium** — professional liability / E&O; IP ownership + licensing terms matter
**Signature accent:** Violet `#7C5CFC` — see [`branding.html`](./branding.html)
**Formal brief:** [`../../divisions/sns-software.md`](../../divisions/sns-software.md)
## Scaffold / Research
- **The problem-solving layer** — custom business applications + automation built to solve a specific client problem; not off-the-shelf products resold.
- **Services:** custom web/business apps, business-process automation + internal tooling, API integrations between existing systems, data pipelines/reporting/dashboards, scripting/automation handed off with documentation.
- **IP terms are the key contract issue:** the parent favors **client code ownership** (open-standards principle) — specify who owns delivered code in every contract.
- Until active, can run as an assumed name of an existing operating sub.
## TODO → Plan (do before creating milestones)
- [ ] Define the standard stack + delivery process (repos, CI/CD, handoff docs)
- [ ] Standard contract with explicit IP/ownership + licensing terms — attorney review
- [ ] Pricing model: fixed-bid vs. time-and-materials vs. retainer
- [ ] Decide scope guardrails (avoid open-ended custom builds without change control)
- [ ] Get E&O / professional liability insurance quotes
- [ ] Finalize logo from [`branding.html`](./branding.html) prompt
## TODO → Launch (see [`../../divisions/legal-structure.md`](../../divisions/legal-structure.md))
- [ ] Form SNS Software LLC on INBiz (owner: Holdings LLC) · EIN · operating agreement
- [ ] Separate business bank account
- [ ] Bind E&O / professional liability insurance
## Milestones
_TBD — populate once the plan above is complete._
## Legal & Insurance
Store formation docs, client contracts (IP terms), and insurance policies in a `legal/` folder here.
