Enterprise Blockchain Vendor Selection & Procurement
Smart Contract Development
Secure, production-ready smart contracts built by Web3 specialists.
Deliver a secure, auditable, and scalable foundation for your Web3 product in as little as 2-4 weeks.
- Protocols & Standards:
ERC-20,ERC-721,ERC-1155,ERC-4626, and custom logic. - Security First: Built with OpenZeppelin libraries and patterns, with a clear path to third-party audits.
- Full Lifecycle: From architecture and development to deployment, monitoring, and upgrade management.
Our Vendor Selection Framework
A systematic, four-phase process to de-risk your blockchain vendor selection. We combine technical due diligence with commercial negotiation to secure optimal terms and a future-proof technology partner.
Requirements & Market Scan
We translate your business needs into a detailed technical RFP and conduct a comprehensive market scan to identify 8-12 qualified vendors across L1s, L2s, and specialized service providers.
Technical Deep Dive & Scoring
Evaluate vendors on 50+ criteria including consensus mechanisms, node infrastructure, API reliability, security audits, and ecosystem maturity. We provide a weighted, objective scorecard.
Proof-of-Concept & Stress Testing
Benchmark finalists under real-world loads. We simulate high-TPS scenarios, test cross-chain interoperability, and audit smart contract security to validate performance claims.
Commercial Negotiation & Onboarding
We lead SLA negotiations, review master service agreements, and manage the technical onboarding process to ensure a smooth deployment with clear accountability metrics.
Outcomes of a Structured Procurement Process
Our vendor selection methodology delivers measurable outcomes, moving beyond technical checklists to ensure your blockchain infrastructure drives business value.
Accelerated Time-to-Market
Reduce vendor evaluation from months to weeks with our standardized scoring framework. We deliver a shortlist of 3-5 pre-vetted, production-ready providers aligned with your specific use case.
Risk-Mitigated Architecture
Avoid costly vendor lock-in and technical debt. Our process evaluates for interoperability, open standards, and exit strategies, ensuring your architecture remains flexible and future-proof.
Optimized Total Cost of Ownership
Move beyond sticker price. Our financial modeling includes implementation, scaling, maintenance, and support costs over a 3-year horizon, preventing budget overruns and ensuring predictable spend.
Enterprise-Grade Security & SLAs
Procure infrastructure with guaranteed performance. We mandate 99.9%+ uptime SLAs, comprehensive security audits (like Trail of Bits), and clear incident response protocols from all finalists.
Strategic Technical Partnership
Gain a vendor that acts as a strategic extension of your team. We assess for quality of engineering support, roadmap alignment, and commitment to co-innovation, not just product features.
Clear Implementation Roadmap
Transition seamlessly from selection to deployment. The final deliverable includes a phased integration plan, key milestone definitions, and success metrics for your first production release.
Procurement Approach: Ad-House vs. Structured
Choosing the right procurement model is critical for project success. This table compares the risks, costs, and outcomes of an ad-hoc, in-house approach versus a structured, expert-led engagement with Chainscore Labs.
| Key Factor | Ad-Hoc / In-House Build | Structured with Chainscore |
|---|---|---|
Time to Production Launch | 6-12+ months | 4-8 weeks |
Initial Development Cost | $200K - $500K+ | $50K - $150K |
Security & Audit Overhead | High (unaudited, custom code) | Low (pre-audited patterns, formal audits) |
Team Expertise Required | Senior Solidity, DevOps, Security | Managed by our expert team |
Ongoing Maintenance Burden | Full internal team required | Optional SLA with 99.9% uptime |
Protocol Upgrade Management | Manual, high-risk | Automated, version-controlled |
Vendor Lock-in Risk | None (but you own all complexity) | Minimal (modular, open-source components) |
Total Cost of Ownership (Year 1) | $300K - $750K+ | $75K - $200K |
Typical Outcome | Delayed launch, security incidents, high burn | On-time delivery, secure foundation, focused roadmap |
