Advisory Rates & Engagement Models

We operate through clear, transparent engagement frameworks tailored to software engineering initiatives: fixed-fee diagnostic assessments, milestone-governed modernization roadmaps, and ongoing architectural retainers.

Fixed-Scope Diagnostic

Legacy Codebase Diagnostic Audit

NT$ 180,000 – NT$ 320,000

Timeline: 3–4 Weeks

Comprehensive technical debt evaluation and risk assessment for engineering teams planning an upcoming modernization initiative or due-diligence review.

Included Scope:
  • Full static code complexity & technical debt heatmap
  • Dependency vulnerability & end-of-life framework risk report
  • Quantified architectural risk register with remediation estimates
  • Executive findings debrief & 90-minute Q&A workshop
Milestone-Based Advisory Retainer

Modernization Architecture Advisory

From NT$ 280,000 / Milestone

Timeline: 6–16 Weeks Phased Roadmap

Hands-on architectural guidance, Strangler Fig pattern planning, and domain boundary isolation for active monolithic decomposition programs.

Included Scope:
  • Domain boundary mapping & bounded context definitions
  • Strangler Fig cutover plans & zero-downtime routing blueprints
  • Anti-Corruption Layer (ACL) and Outbox Pattern reference designs
  • Bi-weekly architecture decision reviews with internal tech leads
  • Code review spikes & risk verification milestones
Quarterly Technical Advisory

Principal Architect Retainer

NT$ 120,000 / Month

Timeline: Quarterly Commitment (3 Months minimum)

On-demand advisory access to our Principal Architects for continuous architectural governance, design reviews, and engineering lead mentorship.

Included Scope:
  • Up to 24 dedicated advisory hours per month
  • Review and sign-off on Architecture Decision Records (ADRs)
  • Priority response for architectural escalation calls
  • Quarterly technical governance review report

Key Factors Influencing Engagement Scope

Because no two enterprise codebases share the exact same technical debt profile, our formal advisory proposals are structured following an initial diagnostic scoping call:

  • Repository Scale & Language Heterogeneity: Monorepos with multiple legacy languages (e.g. C++, Java, Delphi) require deeper syntactic mapping.
  • Database Schema Entanglement: Shared relational instances with high stored-procedure densities require extensive shadow verification.
  • Deployment Automation State: Systems lacking automated integration test harnesses require preliminary harness construction before safe decomposition.
  • Regulatory & Security Compliance: Banking, logistics, or healthcare systems with strict data sovereignty mandates.

Commercial Terms & Assurance

All advisory contracts are denominated in New Taiwan Dollars (NT$) or USD equivalent for international groups. Invoicing is tied to milestone acceptance criteria signed off by your designated technical lead.

Review our formal Refund & Cancellation Terms for detailed stipulations on deposit schedules and milestone verifications.
