To maintain quality and focus, we limit concurrent engagements and never overbook. When we work with you, our attention is fully on your needs. Whether you need a short-term boost or a long-term strategic partnership, we tailor our approach to deliver real value.
We operate on a fixed-price model, eliminating the need for time tracking or approval gates. Our engagements are based on a defined time period, ensuring full flexibility to collaborate on any topic within our expertise—technical, process-related, or strategic.
Get in touch today to discuss how we can support your organisation's agility, DevOps adoption, and value delivery.
TL;DR; Martin will be working remotely from Cancun, Mexico, on Eastern Standard Time until January 23, 2025, but remains fully available for all meetings and support. UK and European clients should note the 5-hour time difference, though his calendar and booking system are updated to minimize disruption. Continue using the usual contact methods and booking system for meetings, and expect consistent service.
I hope this note finds you well. I wanted to let you know about a temporary change in my working location that might affect our meeting schedules over the next few weeks.
From now until January 23rd, 2025, I’ll be working from Cancun, Mexico, instead of my usual base in Glasgow. My wife and I are taking our new baby, Cassandra, to visit her Abuela and other relatives. While the scenery may differ, my commitment to supporting your teams and projects remains unchanged.
What This Means for You
I’ll be operating on Eastern Standard Time (EST) rather than GMT
I remain fully available for all scheduled consultations and support
Virtual meetings can continue as normal - just with a different time zone to consider
Email response times will stay consistent with what you’re used to
Meeting Scheduling
For those of you in the UK/Europe, this means I’ll be 5 hours behind rather than in the same time zone. I’ve adjusted my calendar to accommodate this shift and ensure minimal disruption to our ongoing work together.
If you need to schedule any meetings during this period, please use my regular booking system, which will automatically adjust for the time difference.
Contact Details
All my regular contact methods remain the same:
Email: martin@\nkdagility.com
Teams: martin@\nkdagility.com
I look forward to continuing our work together, albeit from a slightly more tropical location. Don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or concerns.
Best regards,
