# Consulting

A clearer path forward.

## Where we can help

- **Delivery and focus**: When priorities compete and delivery slows, we work with you to identify bottlenecks and focus the team’s effort.
- **Reliability and cost**: When firefighting or rising costs take over, we examine your systems and data to find the underlying causes.
- **Teams and change**: When hiring, retention, AI adoption or compliance creates friction, we help you work through the organisational and technical decisions together.

## How we start

1. Book a 30-minute intro call. (£150 + VAT. We charge for this call so we only work with people who have a real need for our services.)
2. We scope the problem with data.
3. We agree a fixed-price engagement.

## Ways to work together

- **General advisory**: A sounding board for technical and organisational decisions as your business grows.
- **Fix a problem**: A focused engagement around a defined problem, with the scope and price agreed before work starts.
- **Continuous improvement**: Work together on the next improvement as your team, systems and priorities evolve.

Every engagement has a fixed price, agreed up front.

## Before we talk

### Is it too early?

You do not need to be a large company. Bring a specific decision or challenge, along with the context you have today.

### Is this cookie-cutter consulting?

We scope the work around your problem and your data, then agree a fixed-price engagement with you.

### What does the first call cost?

The 30-minute Consulting intro call costs £150 + VAT. Any subsequent engagement has a separate fixed price, agreed up front.
