How Pricing Works

Pricing depends on scope, complexity, and the level of structural work required. The ranges below are indicative. All work is scoped in advance, with a fixed quote agreed before any work begins.

Pricing is structured around three core service areas:

Structural Cleanup — stabilise fragile files

Automation — reduce manual processes

Reporting — structure decision-ready visibility

Spreadsheet Health Audit

€150

Every engagement begins with a Spreadsheet Health Audit.

A concise review identifying structural risks, fragility points, and opportunities to simplify your spreadsheets.

The audit fee is deducted from any subsequent engagement.

Structural Cleanup

Tier I – Small & Contained

A focused cleanup of a single spreadsheet that has become fragile, frustrating, or difficult to trust.

From €180

Fixed price agreed after review.

Best for small spreadsheets with local issues that need structure and reliability, not a full rebuild.

It mostly works. You just don’t quite trust it.

See typical scope & outcome

Typical Scope

  • Single spreadsheet
  • Limited number of tabs
  • Localised formula or structural issues
  • Used by one person or a small team
  • Low operational risk, but persistent friction

Outcome

  • Clearer structure
  • More transparent, reliable formulas
  • A file that can be edited without hesitation

Typical turnaround: 1–3 weeks, depending on scope.

Tier II – Operational / Core

A structured cleanup of a more complex spreadsheet where multiple tabs, dependencies, or recurring issues begin to introduce operational risk.

From €300

Fixed price agreed after review.

Best for spreadsheets that support ongoing operations, are used regularly by a small team, and have grown over time without clear structure.

It works… until it suddenly doesn’t.

See Typical Scope & Outcome

Typical Scope

  • Core operational or financial spreadsheet
  • Multiple interdependent tabs
  • Built and expanded over time
  • Used regularly (weekly or monthly)
  • Errors lead to confusion, rework, or poor decisions

Outcome

  • Clear separation between data, calculations, and outputs
  • Reduced fragility with fewer cascading errors
  • A file others can understand and maintain

Typical turnaround: 2–4 weeks, depending on scope.

Tier III – Business Critical / Complex

A deep, end-to-end cleanup of a complex spreadsheet at the heart of business operations, where failure carries real risk.

From €600

Fixed price agreed after review.

Best for spreadsheets that underpin key processes, reporting, or financial decisions, where reliability is essential and errors are not acceptable.

This file must be right. Every time.

See Typical Scope & Outcome

Typical Scope

  • Business-critical spreadsheet
  • Multiple users with competing versions
  • High reliance for reporting, planning, or decisions
  • Significant accumulated complexity
  • Real consequences if results are wrong

Outcome

  • Clear and stable spreadsheet architecture
  • De-risked formulas and calculation logic
  • Decisions based on reliable data

Typical turnaround: 3–6 weeks, depending on scope.

Automation

Tier I – Simple Automation

Automating a small, clearly defined task that is performed manually and repeated regularly.

From €250

Fixed price agreed after review.

Best for straightforward, repeatable tasks in stable spreadsheets where the logic is clear, but execution is manual.

You know exactly what to do. You just don’t want to keep doing it.

See Typical Scope & Outcome

Typical Scope

  • One or two recurring manual tasks
  • A single input file or a small set of simple inputs
  • Clear and predictable data structure
  • One core dataset or spreadsheet
  • Minimal changes to the underlying spreadsheet logic

Outcome

  • Fewer manual steps
  • Less copy-paste and repetition
  • One-click or low-effort refresh

Typical turnaround: 1–3 weeks, depending on scope.

Tier II – Process Automation

Automating a multi-step workflow spanning several actions, files, or checks, used regularly as part of day-to-day operations.

From €450

Fixed price agreed after review.

Best for operational workflows that have grown over time and now involve repeated sequences, multiple inputs, or hand-offs that must run reliably the same way every time.

It’s not complex. It’s just fragile.

See Typical Scope & Outcome

Typical Scope

  • Multi-step recurring workflow
  • Multiple input files to be combined or aligned
  • Dependencies between processing steps
  • Must run consistently every time
  • Used by more than one person

Outcome

  • Stable, maintainable automation
  • Reduced dependency on individuals
  • Clear logic that can be followed and maintained

Typical turnaround: 2–4 weeks, depending on scope.

Tier III – Operational Automation

Automating a complex, end-to-end workflow at the heart of operations and must run correctly and consistently, without relying on manual intervention.

From €800

Fixed price agreed after review.

Best for business-critical processes that span multiple files, steps, and decision points, where consistency is essential and errors are not acceptable.

Manual steps are where errors enter the system.

See Typical Scope & Outcome

Typical Scope

  • Automation tied to core operations or reporting
  • Multiple interdependent inputs, often updated by different people or on different schedules
  • Higher structural complexity across steps and inputs
  • Strong need for consistency and reliability
  • Errors propagate quickly across downstream outputs

Outcome

  • Stable, maintainable automation
  • Predictable and repeatable outputs
  • Reduced operational risk across recurring workflows

Typical turnaround: 3–6 weeks, depending on scope.

Reporting

Tier I – Foundational Reporting

A focused Power BI report that turns a stable spreadsheet into a clear, reliable view of key business metrics.

From €250

Fixed price agreed after review.

Best for businesses with reasonably clean data that want simple visibility without rebuilding reports each time.

The numbers exist. They’re just hard to see.

See Typical Scope & Outcome

Typical Scope

  • Small number of datasets
  • Straightforward business questions
  • Manual or inconsistent reporting
  • Limited dependencies on other files or systems
  • Need for clarity rather than deep analysis

Outcome

  • Clear and repeatable reports
  • Shared understanding of key metrics
  • Reduced manual effort

Typical turnaround: 1–3 weeks, depending on scope.

Tier II – Operational Reporting

Power BI reporting built across multiple datasets or business areas, creating a consistent operational view of performance over time.

From €450

Fixed price agreed after review.

Best for businesses that rely on multiple spreadsheets or recurring reports and need a joined-up, reliable view of operations for regular decision-making.

The numbers exist. They’re just scattered.

See Typical Scope & Outcome

Typical Scope

  • Multiple related spreadsheets or data sources
  • Recurring reporting needs (weekly or monthly)
  • Operational or financial performance monitoring
  • Manual reconciliation or duplicated reporting
