Payment Terms & Pricing
Standard Payment Terms
- Discovery Packages: 100% payment upfront (Net 0)
- Operator Engagements: Typically run 4-8 weeks to build operational systems. Hourly rates starting at €120/hr (excl. VAT), with final rate determined during Discovery based on engagement complexity and risk assessment. Typical rate range: €120-140/hr depending on complexity factors. Standard scope (≤4 weeks) requires 100% payment upfront (Net 0). Extended scope (>4 weeks) payment terms discussed on case-by-case basis.
- Fractional Partner Retainer: Monthly billing at start of each month. 3-month commitment requires 3 monthly payments. Hourly rates starting at €150/hr (from Operator phase) or €180/hr (direct entry), with final pricing adjusted based on engagement assessment. Partner rates reflect expanded scope to fractional COO-level responsibilities including operations management, founder coaching, and strategic guidance.
- Fractional Partner Retainer Structure: Monthly retainer based on agreed hour allocation (typically 25 hours/month minimum). Usage beyond allocated margin incurs premium rates (1.25× base hourly rate) to protect capacity for all Fractional Partner clients.
- Fractional Partner Early Termination: Either party may terminate the engagement with 30 days written notice. Upon termination: (a) Notice Period - Termination becomes effective at the end of the current monthly cycle (30 days from notice); (b) Current Month Payment - Client completes payment for the month in which notice is given; (c) Hour Bank - Unused hours in the current month's allocation are non-refundable; (d) Transition Commitment - Consultant provides orderly transition including documentation of active initiatives and strategic handoff session; (e) Future Relationship - Early termination does not preclude future engagement. Clients may return to Fractional Partner services after a 60-day cooling period. Termination for Cause - Either party may terminate immediately for material breach (non-payment, confidentiality violation, or fundamental non-performance) without completing the commitment period.
Rush Delivery Premium
When standard timelines cannot accommodate your urgency, rush delivery is available with a premium of 20-25% of the total engagement value (excl. VAT).
Rush delivery premium is assessed based on:
- Timeline compression: How much the delivery schedule is accelerated
- Complexity level: Stakeholder count, scope size, organizational factors
- Capacity impact: Required deprioritization of other client commitments
Examples: Lower complexity with moderate urgency = 20% premium. High complexity with extreme urgency = 25% premium.
Rush premiums are assessed during Discovery and must be agreed upfront before work begins. For hourly engagements, rush premium applies to base rate estimates before risk assessment adjustments. Example: 40 hours × €120 base = €4,800 → 25% rush = €6,000 estimated engagement value.
Pricing Factors
Final pricing considers:
- Complexity: Organizational structure, number of stakeholders requiring vision alignment
- Stakeholder Alignment: How many decision-makers need to be brought into strategic clarity
- Timeline Urgency: Standard vs accelerated delivery requirements
- Proven Collaboration: Existing relationship history and demonstrated partnership fit
Scope Changes
Any scope additions beyond the original agreement require written change orders. Work pauses until change orders are approved and additional payment is received.
