Pricing
Engagement models built for clarity, not surprise invoices.
Pricing is scoped based on complexity and outcome. Most work is delivered in fixed-fee assessments or short implementation sprints.
Teams who want a clear starting point can begin with the Infrastructure Health Check. After a scoping request, we provide a written scope with a fixed fee or range based on environment size, drift, and validation depth.
