What moves the price

Four things decide your final quote.

01

Number of environments and accounts

One production account is simpler than a 40-account estate with shared networking.

02

Clouds and regions in scope

Single-cloud builds are cheaper than multi-cloud or multi-region designs.

03

Compliance requirements

SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI DSS or ISO 27001 evidence adds control mapping and documentation work.

04

Existing state

Greenfield is faster than untangling drift, click-ops, and undocumented legacy.

Managed retainer response targets

Response times are written into the contract.

Pricing FAQ

Common pricing questions

How much does DevOps consulting cost?

Our fixed-scope modules start at $2,500 for a focused sprint (for example a cloud cost review or observability setup) and $4,500–$6,000 for platform foundations such as a landing zone or production Kubernetes base. Larger multi-module programs typically start around $8,000.

Do you charge hourly?

We prefer fixed-scope, fixed-price modules so you know the cost before work starts. For open-ended work we offer monthly retainers rather than hourly billing.

How much does managed cloud support cost per month?

Managed platform operations retainers start at $2,500 per month and include monitoring ownership, patching, incident response targets, and a monthly health report.

Why is the final price sometimes higher than the starting price?

Starting prices cover a typical single-cloud scope. Price rises with the number of accounts, environments, regions, compliance frameworks, and how much existing drift needs cleaning up. You always get a written scope and price before committing.

Is the first consultation free?

Yes. The initial consultation and scoping call are free, and we will tell you honestly if a module is not the right fit.

Do cloud provider costs come out of the module price?

No. Your AWS, Azure, or GCP bill and any third-party tool licences are paid directly by you. Our modules often reduce that bill—especially the Cloud Cost Sprint.
