Engagement paths & pricing

Assessment. Implementation. Ongoing support.

Every engagement is one of three paths, scoped around the system that is breaking. Rates below are the studio's published starting points and are fixed in a signed statement of work. We do not publish ROI or outcome figures we cannot source.

00Which path fits

Start from the situation.

Most operators begin with an assessment because it orders the work by impact. The matrix shows where each situation usually lands. It contains no pricing on purpose, the path comes first, the number is confirmed after discovery.

Which engagement fits

Situations an operator brings to Solvhaus, mapped to the three engagement paths: assessment, implementation, and ongoing or fractional support.

02Implementation

Build the system the assessment named.

Scoped builds across CRM and admissions infrastructure, operating layers, sites, products, and brand. Ranges reflect complexity and are confirmed after discovery. Every card shows the base SOW and what moves the number. BedFlow, Afterflow, and Roll Call configuration is scoped inside the relevant build.
