Credits are always linked to defined deliverables, not just time spent. If your needs fall outside these packages, we’re happy to scope a bespoke engagement.
Credits Model:
Purchase credits up front and draw down for advisory work packages as needed.
Credits can be used flexibly across all Fractional CISO, Cloud, DevOps, and FinOps services.
Unused credits can be rolled over to future engagements or applied to other packages.
This model provides budget certainty, priority access, and streamlined engagement.
Bespoke Pay-Later:
For unique or complex requirements, we offer tailored engagements billed on completion.
Each bespoke engagement is scoped individually, with clear deliverables and pricing.
Ideal for organizations preferring traditional project-based billing or requiring highly customized solutions.
Which is right for you?
Credits are best for organizations seeking flexibility, predictable costs, and the ability to mix and match advisory services.
Bespoke pay-later is ideal for one-off projects, highly specialized needs, or when scoping is required before commitment.
