FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can you review without changing any code?

Yes. An audit or architecture review can be a standalone engagement.

Do you also implement the recommendations?

Yes, if needed — either directly or by supporting your team.

How long does an audit take?

It depends on the size of the system and the questions you need answered. We agree the scope and timeline before starting.

How is pricing determined?

Pricing is on request and depends on scope. Project-based work, consulting and contract engagements are all possible — describe the task and we will propose a format.

Need a second opinion on your architecture?
