OUR APPROACH
Your Flexible Data Team
Our Tool Audit service has a set cost of £10k. We may refund this if you implement with us. An audit is especially useful when you have existing infrastructure which may be a barrier to a later implementation phase.
It typically takes us 2-4 weeks to review your data stack and then make suggestions. We will run through these on a call with you and then leave you with a longer document on suggestions.
We will need access to your infrastructure and an understanding of current pain points but your involvement will be minimal.
