Integration & AI Advisory · mid-market and enterprise

AI is only as good as what it can reach. Most systems aren’t ready.

Many organisations don’t need a new integration strategy. They need the one they already have re-tested against a world that changed.

So there are two paid tiers — direction, then execution — entered through a free front door, with an ongoing retainer available at the end of either path. Which path is yours is settled in the free scoping session, and you take one route through — not all of them.

Built for estates of roughly 10+ systems. Smaller than that and the right shape is usually AI Enablement for SMEs instead.

One front door, then one path through.

How the price gets set — once, in the session

Four factors, weighed together in the free scoping session. The band you land in sets the fee, and is inherited by every downstream engagement — so you are sized once and never re-argued. You see which band you’re in, and why, before there is anything to sign.

BAND B · TYPICAL

Up to 10 participants · 3 deep-dives
BAND C · COMPLEX ESTATE

Re-banding works both ways. If the estate turns out smaller than scored, the band moves down — and the fee with it.
