Engagement models that fit your scope

Three clear ways to work with Corten, from a fixed-scope Assessment to a full Turnkey Program. Transparent bands, no retainers you cannot leave, and a KPI agreed before we start.

Engagement models

Choose the model that fits your scope

Start small and scale up. Assessment credits roll into a retainer, and a retainer rolls into a program, so you never pay for the same discovery twice.

Assessment
Fixed scope
From €12k / engagement

A fixed-scope diagnostic that finds where output leaks and tells you what to fix first.

Includes
  • Two-week discovery audit
  • Signal mapping and instrumentation review
  • KPI baseline for the target line
  • Prioritised findings and roadmap
Best for plants scoping a problem before committing to a build.
Turnkey Program
End to end
Custom scoped after audit

Full system design, build, and commissioning, handed over to your team as a running plant.

Everything in Retained, plus
  • Full system architecture
  • Build and integration
  • Commissioning and handover
  • Reliability warranty and on-site training
Best for a full line or facility transformation on a fixed timeline.

The same standards, whatever the scope

KPIs agreed up front

We define the numbers before we touch a line, then review against them in the open. No moving goalposts.

An engineer, not a desk

Your point of contact is an engineer who has run the floor, reachable directly, from the first call onward.

A maintainable handover

Clean drawings, source files, and a trained team so you own the system long after we leave.

FAQ

Questions, answered with clarity

Still weighing which model fits? Send a rough scope and we will tell you where to start, honestly.

A Turnkey Program is always scoped from a completed Assessment, so the price reflects your actual line and target KPIs rather than a guess. You get a fixed quote with milestones before any build work begins.

Yes, and it is the intended path. The fee for an Assessment is credited toward your first months of a retainer, and retained work rolls into a program without repeating discovery. You never pay for the same audit twice.

Retained Engineering runs on a three-month minimum so a delivery rhythm can take hold, then continues month to month. You can pause or stop with 30 days notice. There are no multi-year lock-ins.

Hardware, machine parts, and third-party licences are passed through at cost with your approval. Travel to sites outside the Netherlands is billed at cost. Everything engineering related is inside the quoted fee.

Most Assessments begin within two weeks of a signed scope. A retainer can start the week an Assessment closes, since the team already knows your plant. Turnkey timelines are set in the program quote.

Always. We sign your NDA before the first audit and agree the target KPIs in writing as part of the scope. Progress is measured against those numbers on a live dashboard, not a story we tell at the end.
