  • Restore type and how much data moves
  • How fast recovery has to happen
  • Identity and application dependencies
  • A safe window to run the test
  • How deep the evidence needs to go
  • After-hours, on-site, or travel time

  • Whether you want us back on a schedule

Straight answers about cost

Which prices are published, and which are quoted?

Our productized work has a starting price you can read off this page: the readiness snapshot, the assessments, single restore tests, the Evidence Pack, insurance-readiness support, and the assurance tiers. Bigger or bespoke jobs are quoted privately.

How do you charge, in general?

Defined work is a fixed fee against a written scope. Implementation is quoted by the labor the design needs, with software and storage separate. Recurring assurance is a monthly or annual agreement.

Do I have to commit to the whole thing up front?

No. Most clients start with an assessment or one restore test, see how we work, and decide from there. Larger projects run on milestones with a deposit.
