Fixed-price software audits & assessments

A package is a fixed-scope, fixed-price engagement: deliverables, access, and cost agreed before work starts, with no day-rate ambiguity. Each one is a productised slice of the wider consultancy — the audit-first methodology applied to a specific, well-bounded question.

P1 / AI

AI Production-Readiness Audit

A fixed-price audit of an LLM feature or agent before — or after — it meets real users: evals, guardrails, prompt and tool design, cost, latency, and failure modes.

Infrastructure

P2 / Cost

Cloud Cost Audit

A fixed-price audit of an AWS estate's spend — where the money goes, what's over-provisioned, idle, or architecturally expensive — delivered as a severity-ranked report and a prioritised savings roadmap.

P3 / Audit

PostgreSQL Performance Audit

A fixed-price, fixed-scope audit of a production PostgreSQL database — query load, indexing, autovacuum, configuration, and cost — delivered as a severity-ranked report and remediation roadmap.

P4 / Upgrade

PostgreSQL Upgrade Readiness Assessment

A fixed-price assessment for teams on older PostgreSQL versions — compatibility, upgrade path options, downtime expectations, and rollback strategy, delivered as a written upgrade plan.

P5 / ClickHouse

ClickHouse Performance Audit

A fixed-price, fixed-scope audit of a production ClickHouse deployment — schema and ordering keys, materialised views, merges, query load, and cost — delivered as a severity-ranked report and remediation roadmap.

Spreadsheets

P6 / Excel

Excel Workbook Audit

A fixed-price analysis of the Excel workbooks your business actually runs on — what they do, where they're fragile, and a clear route to fixing or replacing what the audit finds.

Assurance

P7 / Rescue

Legacy System Rescue Assessment

A fixed-price assessment of an inherited or ailing system — a risk map, a first-90-days stabilisation plan, and a realistic modernisation path.

Packages are audits and assessments offered on their own — the process behind them is covered in how we work, and the full consultancy in what we do.
