Travel Policy — Published Too
Flights & Hotels at Cost
Economy travel, 4-star hotel cap (~$120/night LATAM, ~$180/night EU). Receipts on every invoice line. No markup, ever.
Flat Per Diem
$75–100/day depending on region, no receipts required. Simple for you, simple for us.
Travel Days at Half Rate
You pay half the day rate for travel time. Site visits are batched into blocks — not dribbled across weeks.
Remote-First by Default
Our NOC is remote-first with hubs in Brazil and Portugal — travel is the exception (commissioning, hold-points, quarterly reviews), not the weekly default of big-firm consulting.
Typical EU↔LATAM on-site week: ~$2,100–3,500 in expenses plus half-rate travel days. LATAM-domiciled engineers keep even that lower than EU-consultant equivalents.
We Earn More When You Save More
Wherever the outcome is measurable, part of our fee rides on it. Base fees keep delivery sustainable; success components align us with your results.
| Service | Success metric (measured) | Structure |
|---|---|---|
| Modular delivery | Verified CAPEX savings vs. baseline design | 15–25% gainshare, capped |
| OpenStack migration | Year-1 TCO reduction vs. renewal quote — invoice-verified | typically 15% of savings |
| Managed operations | SLA attainment · MTTR · incident reduction · PUE | quarterly bonus at targets |
| Consulting / OE | On-time, on-budget, change-order avoidance | milestone bonuses |
Governance — In Writing, Before Work Starts
- Baseline agreed in writing before the engagement begins
- Measurement source defined upfront: invoices, DCIM, meters
- Third-party verifiable on request
- Caps and floors on both sides
- Defined payment cadence — no surprise invoices
Example: a 500-core VMware estate facing a ~$67,500/yr renewal moves to managed OpenStack at ~$90k/yr all-in including 24/7 operations — a verified ~$130k/yr saving against baseline + admin costs, of which our success fee would be ~15%.

FAQ
Why publish prices when competitors don't?
Because we're buyers of these services ourselves and we hate opaque quotes. Published pricing respects your time, pre-qualifies our pipeline, and forces us to stay honest. Where a price depends on variables, we publish the variables too.
How do success-based fees work?
A base fee covers delivery; a success component rides on verified outcomes — capex savings on modular builds (15–25% gainshare, capped), invoice-verified TCO reduction on migrations (typically 15% of year-1 savings), and SLA/MTTR/PUE attainment on operations (quarterly bonus). Baselines and measurement sources are agreed in writing before work starts.
How do you charge travel?
Flights and hotels at cost (economy, 4-star cap), flat per diem of $75–100/day without receipts, and travel days at 50% of the day rate. Site visits batch into blocks — the NOC is remote-first, so travel is the exception.
Which entity do we contract with?
EU clients contract with Viwebs OÜ (Estonia) under EU reverse-charge VAT; LATAM clients with QoreLayer EAS (Paraguay); US-billed contracts on request; Brazilian local invoicing where procurement demands it.
