Last updated:March 4, 2026
Official Document

Oak Palette, a fully owned brand of Apex-Nova (Private) Limited, is a professional design and creative services studio. All Oak Palette deliverables are digital in nature — including brand identities, design systems, visual assets, creative strategy documents, and advisory outputs. No physical goods are manufactured, sold, or shipped. This policy sets out how Oak Palette delivers engagement outputs to clients, the channels used, timelines, and client responsibilities in the handover process.

01

Nature of Deliverables

Oak Palette provides exclusively digital and creative deliverables across all service lines. These include:

  • Brand Identity & Design AssetsLogo files, brand guidelines, visual identity systems, typography specifications, colour palettes, and all associated brand asset packages.
  • Design Files & Source AssetsFigma files, production-ready design assets, UI/UX deliverables, prototypes, and exportable creative outputs.
  • Creative Strategy DocumentsBrand strategy reports, positioning frameworks, messaging architecture, creative direction documents, and brand narrative guides.
  • Digital Products & ExperiencesWebsites, landing pages, digital brand platforms, and implemented digital design outputs.
  • Knowledge & Creative GuidanceWorkshop outputs, brand discovery session notes, creative recommendations, and structured advisory content.

Oak Palette does not sell, manufacture, or distribute any physical products. All deliverables are digital and transferred through secure electronic channels.

02

Delivery Channels

Oak Palette uses secure, professional digital channels to transfer all deliverables to clients:

  • Design Collaboration PlatformsDesign deliverables are shared via Figma or equivalent platforms, with appropriate view or edit access provisioned to the client.
  • Secure Cloud StorageFinal exported assets, documentation, and file-based deliverables are shared via secure cloud links with access controlled and time-limited where appropriate.
  • Email CommunicationFormal delivery notifications, strategy documents, and smaller deliverables are provided via the client's registered email address.
  • Version Control RepositoriesFor web or implementation deliverables, code assets are shared via private Git repositories with appropriate access provisioned to the client.
  • Live Handover SessionsFor complex deliverables, Oak Palette may conduct a live walkthrough or handover session to ensure complete understanding and confident adoption of the creative work.

All delivery channels are selected to ensure security, clarity, and ease of access for the client. Oak Palette will confirm the preferred delivery method at the start of each engagement.

03

Delivery Timelines

All delivery timelines are established through mutual agreement at the start of each engagement.

  • Documented TimelinesAgreed delivery dates are documented in the engagement brief, proposal, or contract before work commences.
  • Milestone-Based DeliveryFor larger engagements, deliverables are structured into creative milestones with individual timelines agreed for each phase.
  • Progress CommunicationOak Palette provides regular status updates and flags potential timeline adjustments proactively and in advance.
  • Client DependenciesTimelines may be affected by delays in client feedback, approvals, content provision, or access to required brand materials. Oak Palette will communicate any impact promptly.
  • Expedited DeliveryRush or expedited delivery options may be available on request, subject to creative capacity and applicable surcharges agreed in writing.

Oak Palette treats delivery commitments seriously. Any timeline revisions are communicated transparently and with sufficient notice.

04

Client Acceptance & Review

Oak Palette uses a structured review and acceptance process to ensure deliverables meet agreed creative specifications.

  • Delivery NotificationClients are formally notified when a deliverable is ready for review, with access details and context provided.
  • Review PeriodClients are given an agreed review window — typically 5–7 business days — to evaluate deliverables against agreed creative briefs and specifications.
  • Feedback & RevisionsStructured feedback during the review period is addressed through agreed revision rounds as specified in the engagement scope.
  • Acceptance ConfirmationFormal acceptance (written or email confirmation) from the client marks the completion of the deliverable.
  • Deemed AcceptanceIf no feedback is received within the agreed review window, the deliverable is considered accepted and the engagement phase marked complete.

Clear acceptance criteria are defined at the start of each engagement to ensure a smooth and unambiguous creative review process.

05

Post-Delivery Support

Oak Palette provides appropriate post-delivery support as part of each engagement.

  • Warranty PeriodA post-delivery support window is included by default — typically 30 days for implementation deliverables, unless otherwise agreed in the engagement terms.
  • Scope of SupportPost-delivery support covers corrections to issues directly related to the agreed deliverable scope, not new creative requirements or scope extensions.
  • Handover DocumentationWhere applicable, Oak Palette provides brand usage guidelines, asset management notes, and implementation guidance to enable client teams to confidently steward the delivered creative work.
  • Extended SupportOngoing design partnership retainers, creative support arrangements, or extended advisory can be agreed separately beyond the standard warranty period.

Oak Palette's post-delivery support is designed to ensure a smooth transition and confident adoption of all delivered creative outputs.

06

Delays & Disruptions

In the event of unexpected delays or disruptions to delivery:

  • Proactive NotificationOak Palette will communicate any potential delay as soon as it is identified, well in advance of the agreed delivery date.
  • Revised TimelineA revised delivery date will be proposed and mutually agreed in writing before proceeding.
  • Force MajeureDelays resulting from circumstances beyond reasonable control — including but not limited to natural events, infrastructure outages, or public emergencies — will be communicated immediately with proposed resolution paths.
  • Client-Caused DelaysWhere delays result from delayed client feedback, missing brand materials, or late provision of required inputs, Oak Palette will adjust timelines accordingly and notify the client of the revised schedule.

Open, proactive communication is fundamental to how Oak Palette manages delivery. We will never leave you uninformed about the status of your creative engagement.
