How our rates are determined

The question is simple, but the answer is complex. We can't give you an exact rate on our website, but we'd be happy to explain the factors that come into play.

Factors that impact our rates per service

Our data consultancy rates depend on the duration of a project, the specific topic, the scarcity of specialisms in the market, and the seniority level of the consultant. Where possible, junior consultants work under the guidance of a senior consultant on your issue. This way, we can take cost-efficient and faster steps for you.

For data projects, we estimate the project and provide an associated cost. Even if the project turns out to be more work than we expected, you pay the agreed-upon rate upfront. Because this is a risk for us, our hourly rates are relatively higher than for our other services. However, you know exactly what you're getting into!

The rates of our data services depend, among other things, on the service level. How quickly do you want a response to requests, and do we need to be available on holidays and weekends? This, of course, affects your investment.

To make our training and inspiration sessions as relevant as possible to your organization or team, we use your own data and recognizable context. This requires preparation. The more specific your needs, the more we need to customize, which increases the costs. If you ask us to organize a training or program, you will receive clear insight into the costs upfront.

Investing in a wealth of knowledge

We deliver our work as standard within your own systems. This way, you always have access to all data, dashboards, and you own the code we write for you.

In addition, you are not only paying for the knowledge of the data consultant working on your issue but can also take advantage of the knowledge of our 100+ data consultants. This is one of the advantages of working with a data consultancy firm compared to hiring people yourself.

We can bring your data-related questions to one of our internal meetups, organize a customer day or inspiration session for you, and help you with data privacy. You can also always work in our office, and we proactively keep you informed of the latest data developments.

Does your data project contribute to the development of society or is it non-profit? Through our foundation, the Digital Power Datahub, we also offer our services for free.
