Coverage and Engagement Model
Ops Work is based in Murrells Inlet, South Carolina, in the Eastern timezone, with the Glide directory listing North America as the service region and English as the working language. The directory marks the practice as accepting new clients. Contact is available by email at hello@opswork.co and through the website’s Start a Conversation form. [Verified: partner directory, company website]
The engagement model is a four-step process: Discovery maps current systems and identifies what is breaking; Architecture designs the system before writing code; Build is done by the same person who designed it; and Launch and Handoff includes testing, documentation, and team training. One senior operator handles everything from first call to final handoff, with no sales or project manager layers. [Verified: company website]
Pricing and Engagement Model
The Glide directory lists project budgets from under $1,000, $1,000 to $5,000, $5,000 to $10,000, and $10,000 to $20,000. The website states engagements start with a clear scope and a fixed price, with no surprise invoices, and publishes three tiers: Architecture Assessment to find out what is broken, Infrastructure Build covering design, build, documentation, and training, and Infrastructure Partnership for ongoing access, with a 3-month minimum and limited availability. [Verified: partner directory, company website]
An ROI calculator is available on the website to estimate automation value, and a free Operations Audit Checklist of 10 questions is offered as a lead magnet. The positioning is pay once and build it right, comparing favorably against hiring a freelancer, piecing together tutorials, or asking ChatGPT to write automations. [Verified: company website]

Ops Work is listed as a Certified Glide Expert in the Glide Experts directory, owned and operated by Nick Janes. LinkedIn certifications include Notion Certified Admin, Notion Service Specialist, Notion Essentials, Cisco Data Literacy Green Belt, Cisco Security Ninja White Belt, and SAFe Practitioner.
