Frequently Asked Questions
On a 30-minute discovery call we ask three questions, what's keeping you up at night, what's coming in the next 90 days, and what's your budget. Most people end up starting with the £495 Cyber Health Score or the £950 Technology Baseline Audit. If you have just been appointed to a new role we will often suggest the £1,250 New Director Tech Orientation first.
Yes. The most common bundle is New Director Tech Orientation (£1,250) plus Technology Baseline Audit (£950) at a combined £1,950, a £250 saving. Other bundles quoted on request.
Fixed-fee, fixed-scope. If something genuinely outside the agreed scope comes up during an engagement we will write a change note and tell you the cost before we start the extra work. We do not bill by the hour.
We work with UK SMEs across healthcare, professional services, manufacturing, wholesale and multi-site retail. The Foundation-phase content leads with healthcare because of the regulatory triggers; the products and the method are sector-agnostic.
We deliver the upstream AI Readiness Audit. AI delivery (Copilot governance, adoption sprints) is handled by our sister company, the SDC Group AI subsidiary. We refer to them and stay in the strategic seat for the broader technology programme.
