Four shapes of engagement, all named after the instructions they are loosely inspired by. Pick the one that matches how sure you are of the problem.
We read the code, the dashboards and the calendar for two weeks, then hand you a written finding: where the time and money are going, and what we would fix first. No commitment beyond the two weeks.
Six to twelve weeks against one agreed outcome, fixed scope, priced up front. We work inside your repos and sit in your standups rather than running a parallel project.
Runbooks, decision records and a system your engineers can run once we are gone. We consider an engagement unfinished until your team can operate the result without us in the room.
A few days a month for architecture review and hiring calls. Useful once the big fix is done and you mainly want a second opinion before you commit to something expensive.
We price each engagement against the outcome, not a day rate we back into. That means we ask about your business before we quote, and it means the quote changes if the scope does. We do not publish a rate card because we have never seen one that was honest.
Three people means we are sometimes booked out. If your timeline is tight, say so in the first email and we will tell you straight away whether we can make it work, rather than stringing you along through a sales process.
Start with the diagnostic. It is the cheapest way to find out.
