Where are you based and do you work remotely?

Even State Projects is based in Singapore and works with clients across the U.S., APAC, and beyond. Most engagements are managed remotely, with on-the-ground presence available depending on the project.

What kinds of businesses do you work with?

Even State Projects works with founders, leadership teams, and growing businesses across a range of industries. The work tends to suit organizations that need a senior, capable partner without the overhead of a full-time hire.

How does an engagement typically begin?

It starts with a conversation. We discuss what you are working on, where you need support, and whether Even State Projects is the right fit. From there we agree on scope, structure, and next steps.

Do you work on short-term projects as well as long-term engagements?

Yes. Even State Projects is built to be flexible. Some clients come with a single, well-defined project that needs to be scoped, executed, and closed. Others need an ongoing partner who can sit alongside the business for months, moving between priorities as they evolve. Both are welcome, and the structure of every engagement is agreed upfront so there are no surprises on either side.

Who will I be working with?

You work directly with Devon Patterson on every engagement. There are no account managers or junior staff involved in your work. Where a project calls for additional expertise, Devon has an extensive network of trusted specialists and collaborators who can be brought in as needed, always vetted, always the right fit for the work.

How do you structure fees?

Fees are scoped per engagement and discussed upfront. Even State Projects does not publish standard rates, as most work is tailored to the specific scope and needs of the client.
