Dairdux Consortium Service Catalogue and pricing models
Dairdux’s evolving service catalogue and pricing models are a direct consequence of traditional consultant and broker pricing models failing to deliver cross-disciplinary talent orchestration as a flexible OPEX based service. This is necessary if you want to work according to the principles of Lean Startup Scaling and Agile DevOps in an enterprise setting. Neither “Waterfall project management” fixed price engagements nor “Time and Material” pricing with no commitments towards outcome and value is what our modern enterprise customers prefer.
Dairdux is about shaping the future. This includes re-inventing the optimal pricing models for customers set on becoming agile and data-driven in their own right. On your DAIR journey, Dairdux provides flexible access to needed experts and mentorship.
Below are examples of our current offerings and SOW contracts we gladly use for our modern customers. All X-as-a-service engagements need tailored set up and trimming to fit with each client’s current governance.
