Management Consulting 101: An Overview of Projects, Plans, and Pricing.

MC101: Is a series of general information about the in’s and out’s of management consulting.

Why Partner with a Management Consultant?

At its core, management consulting is about bridging the gap between where your business is and where it needs to be. We provide the objective expertise and specialized guidance necessary to drive performance, optimize operations, and build long-term resilience.
For a partnership to be successful, transparency regarding costs and delivery models is essential. This guide outlines how we structure our engagements to ensure you receive maximum value for your investment.

Understanding Consulting Fees

The cost of an engagement is determined by the complexity of your requirements, the seniority of the expertise required, and the duration of the project.

Market Context: Rates in Canada

In North America, rates typically range from $100 to $1,000 per hour. In Canada, the industry average was approximately $110 per hour (per Statistics Canada, 2022). While market conditions have evolved since then, this remains a helpful benchmark for budgeting and comparing service delivery models.

 

Our Approach to Competitive Pricing

We offer a transparent rate structure. Whether our rates reflect a market discount or an adjustment for specialized onboarding, we ensure you understand the inputs driving your project’s cost.

Note: Market averages are just that—averages. Consulting value is highly dependent on industry, geography, and the availability of specific expertise. We ensure our rates remain competitive within the industry standard while prioritizing the results your business requires.

 

Flexible Engagement Models

To help you control project expenses and avoid the “scope creep” often associated with fully bespoke work, we offer several ways to engage our services:

Standard Service Packages

For clients seeking predictability, our standard packages offer defined deliverables. This model allows you to maintain strict control over your budget while receiving high-impact results.

Service Plans & Retainers

Secure our availability for your ongoing priorities. Our service plans allow you to customize account limits for a set allocation of time.

  • Scalability: Add-ons and upgrades are available to meet fluctuating demand.
  • Priority: Quantities are limited to ensure we maintain a high level of service for all plan holders.
General Service Agreements. (Billable Hours)

When objectives are fluid or the project duration is undefined, a billable hour model provides the most flexibility. We work under broad terms and conditions, charging for hours worked and reasonable expenses. This framework allows us to begin productive work immediately while the full scope of the engagement takes shape.
