Precise Edit has flexible processes to meet your unique service needs. We can tailor operations, document flow, document managment, and billing practices for your operational guidelines and requirements.

Following is the most typical process for receiving services:

1. Contact Precise Edit by phone or e-mail to discuss your service needs.
2. E-mail document to Precise Edit for an official quote (more about this process here).
3. Precise Edit e-mails you the quote, terms, and timeline, and you approve these by return e-mail.
4. Precise Edit completes the services and sends the documents and invoice.
5. Invoice is paid by check, credit card, or PayPal.

As mentioned, this is the typical process. Payment options and timelines can be modified with prior negotiation, as can services. In every case, Precise Edit will send you an e-mail that describes service terms for approval.

Service times are dependent upon several factors, including document length, your submission deadlines, and the type of service you choose. However, we will do all that we can to help you meet your submission deadlines.

Timelines can be compressed if needed. Precise Edit will not accept a task if we do not believe that we can meet your needs. Precise Edit does not charge extra for rush jobs.

The official quote for services and subsequent correspondence between a client and Precise Edit will establish the actual timeline for a task. Following are some general timelines for services (in business days, M-F) to provide a basis for how long a particular task may take.
