How engagements work

We scope and price each engagement to the work, with clear terms and no open-ended surprises.

Because systems work varies enormously, we price by engagement rather than a fixed list. Most work is either a defined project with a fixed fee, or an ongoing managed-service agreement. We agree scope and cost in writing before we start.

Project

Fixed fee by scope

A defined build or integration with a clear deliverable.

  • Scoped & quoted up front
  • Milestone-based
  • Fixed, agreed price

Managed service

Monthly retainer

Ongoing operation, support and improvement.

  • Predictable monthly cost
  • Defined service levels
  • Scales with need

Advisory

$150 – $300 per hour

For focused architecture and technical guidance.

  • Senior expertise
  • No long commitment
  • Straightforward rate
Every engagement is quoted in writing before work begins, so you always know the cost and the scope.
