The Aquila Group systematically adapts its billing procedures to the operational realities of each assignment.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Beyond the indicative fee schedule, our approach is based on optimization: our years of experience allow us to accurately assess the number of hours required as early as the scoping phase. This ability to plan ahead prevents budget overruns and allows us to offer consistent flat-rate packages tailored to the project\u2019s objectives. <\/p>\n

We therefore prioritize hourly packages tailored to the assignment, rather than simply accumulating hours. This approach ensures greater transparency for the client and overall control over the cost of the investigation. <\/p>\n

In addition, we offer a sliding-scale pricing structure based on the number of hours committed and the duration of the assignment. The more structured the assignment is over time, the more the hourly rate is optimized. <\/p>\n

A minimum engagement of 5 hours is always required to ensure that the investigation is conducted effectively and that the results are usable.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>
