The cost for technology consulting and advice can range from $25 per hour to over $850 per hour for specialized enterprise firms. Pricing varies significantly based on factors such as location, project complexity, and fee structure.
Hourly rates by complexity and firm size
Small Complexity: we may charge $25–$50 per hour. These rates are suitable for basic IT support and small-scale projects.
Small firms: For small businesses and startups, we typically charge $75–$175 per hour.
Mid-sized firms: that need more resources and experience, we typically charge $125–$175 per hour for projects between $50,000 and $5 million.
Large consulting firms: Handling bigger projects for mid-to-large businesses, these firms charge $200–$300 per hour.
Consulting services, delivered at scale
Enterprise-level firms: For complex, large-scale projects for major corporations and government clients, rates can range from $250 to over $850 per hour.
Common pricing models
Hourly or daily rate: This model is most flexible for short-term engagements and troubleshooting. You pay based on our consultant’s time, but the total cost can be unpredictable if the project takes longer than expected.
Monthly retainer: For ongoing access to support and maintenance, businesses pay a fixed monthly fee. This model offers predictable costs but may be inefficient if consulting hours are not fully utilized.
Typical fees: $1,000–$15,000+ per month, depending on the level of service.
Project-based (flat fee): A fixed cost is agreed upon for the entire project, which is ideal for engagements with a clearly defined scope and deliverables. However, there is less flexibility if requirements change midway.
Typical costs: $5,000–$500,000+, depending on project complexity.
Value-based: In this model, we charge based on the value we deliver to the business, often a percentage of the total project value. This high-level approach is used for strategic projects with measurable business outcomes.
