Three ways to work together: time and materials set by a statement of work, a fixed evaluation of a specific problem, or a retainer for ongoing support.
For work that should follow the business need, with the scope written down before it starts.
The statement of work and the business need determine the scope, timing, and effort.
For a defined problem you want examined, with the offering set around that problem.
A fixed engagement built around the problem you want evaluated.
For leaders who want continued help, with time reserved on a recurring basis.
Ongoing support, with the retainer scope agreed before it starts.
A statement of work and the business need set the scope. The work is billed for the time and materials it requires.
The problem you want evaluated sets the scope. The offering stays fixed around that problem.
Ongoing support with time reserved on a recurring basis. The retainer scope is agreed before it starts.
