§ E · ENGAGEMENTS
Three engagement types.
Three engagement types.
One operating discipline.
We structure our work into three engagement types, chosen so the scope is honest, the duration is predictable, and the deliverables are explicit. Every engagement runs on the same four-phase loop documented in Approach.
Below: the comparator. Use it to self-select. If you're unsure, the discovery call is free.
Honest scope. Honest cost.
Most consulting firms hide this table. We publish it because the engagement begins the moment you understand what you're buying.

§ E4 · INTERROGATIVE
Not sure which one fits?
The 30-minute discovery call is how we figure that out together. No pitch, no proposal, just a structured conversation.
