For a clearer technology decision

Independent Technology & Digital Project Second Opinion.

You are welcome to send us the quotation, proposal, or project that has stalled. We will give you an independent, honest view of the price, approach, and technology, including what can be carried forward and what may need reconsidering. There is no charge, and no expectation of working together afterwards.

Send it for review
Does this sound familiar?

When an independent second opinion is worthwhile.

  • You have received a quotation and little way of judging whether it is reasonable.
  • Two suppliers have proposed quite different approaches at similar prices.
  • A project is running late and further payment is being requested.
  • The website was delivered, yet it does not quite do what you understood you were buying.
  • You are about to commit to a platform and are unsure how easy it would be to leave later.

We are not looking for reasons to criticise another supplier. A good many of the quotations we review are perfectly fair, and we are pleased to say so.

How it works

Send it, speak with us, receive an independent written reply.

Two working days from our conversation, every time.

01

Send

Email us the quotation, proposal, brief or a link to what exists — whatever you are comfortable sharing.

02

Speak

A thirty-minute conversation, so that we understand what you hoped to achieve and not only what has been proposed.

03

Review

We examine the scope, the approach, the technology choices, anything missing, and what the price ought to include.

04

Written

A written reply within two working days: what appears sound, what gives us pause, and the questions we would put to your supplier.

What you get

A clear, independent answer, in writing.

  • Whether the price sits within a reasonable range for the work described.
  • Whether the approach and technology suit your situation.
  • What the proposal leaves out that may appear later as additional cost.
  • For paused work, whether it can be recovered or would be better begun afresh.
  • The specific questions we would suggest asking your current supplier.

Well suited to you if

  • You have something specific for us to review — a quotation, a brief, or existing work.
  • You would value an independent view before committing.
  • You are able to share enough detail for the review to be genuinely useful.

Perhaps not, if

  • You would like us to quote for the same work — please ask for a quotation instead, so that nobody is judging their own proposal.
  • You require a full technical audit of a large platform, which would be a paid engagement.
In practice

Sometimes our answer is simply that all is well.

An owner sent us a quotation that felt expensive. On reading it, the price was quite reasonable for what was included. The real difficulty was that it covered a platform considerably larger than the business required.

What changed: They returned to the same supplier with a reduced scope and signed a smaller piece of work. We did not win the project, and that was the right outcome.

Operations platform

One platform to replace disconnected business systems

Departments each ran their own tools and spreadsheets, so nobody could see a job end to end.

Questions

A few questions you may have.

The Business & Digital Health Check and a Second Opinion are free. Strategy, AI readiness and transformation work are paid engagements, quoted as a fixed piece of work once we know the scope. There is no hourly billing.

Is it truly free of charge?

Yes — a thirty-minute conversation and a written reply within two working days, at no cost and with no obligation.

Will you simply tell us the other supplier is wrong?

Not at all. If the quotation is fair and the approach is sound, that is precisely what our reply will say. Your trust is worth more to us than any single project.

Is what I send kept confidential?

Yes. We do not share what you send with anyone, and we do not contact your supplier.

What if we then wish you to do the work?

That is quite welcome, though it becomes a separate conversation with its own quotation, and we will always point out where our recommendation happens to suit us.

How large a project can you review?

A quotation, a proposal or a paused build of most sizes. For a detailed audit of a large live platform, we would suggest a paid engagement instead.
