Projects
Tell us about the project.
For work too big or too variable for a fixed price: moves, layouts, network redesign, restructures, integrations, improvement programs and ongoing support. A short brief is enough to start.
What happens next
Scoped in writing before anything is binding.
- A consultant reads your brief and replies within one business day.
- A scoping conversation, usually 30 to 45 minutes. For site based work we may suggest a review day first so the scope rests on what is there.
- You get a written scope: deliverables, what is excluded, who does what, timing, price and payment stages.
- Nothing is binding until you accept it in writing.
How projects are priced
Fixed price per stage wherever the scope allows, so you are never buying an open ended day count. Where work is truly variable, day rates are quoted up front with a cap. As a guide, senior consultant time is $2,600 a day plus GST, quoted in fixed stages.
Technical boundaries
Layout, racking and storage work is operational and conceptual. Structural engineering, racking load certification, fire engineering and compliance sign-off are done by qualified specialists. We brief and coordinate them and make it clear in the scope who is responsible for what.

What we take on as projects
Scoped work, by the problem you have.
Bigger or variable work starts with a short brief and is scoped in writing before anything is binding.
