We quote after a scoping call, once we have seen the systems, the number of entities, and the decisions the pack must serve. The ranges below are planning figures for a standard Singapore engagement. They are not offers, and they are not tied to any commercial outcome.
What moves a quote: quality of extracts, number of legal entities, number of outlets or SKUs at the grain you want, multi-currency, and whether a dashboard is in scope. What does not move a quote: a request to “make revenue look stronger”.
Minimum first engagement is a diagnostic review. Retained analytics are quoted with a three-month minimum so the monthly cycle has time to exist.
Diagnostic review
Scope and duration Two to three weeks. Interviews with the people who currently compile the month, a sample of extracts, and a written note on definitions, gaps and a recommended pack date. Planning range: SGD 3,200–6,400.
You receive A findings note, a draft metric list, and a build quote if a reporting pack is warranted. No model is built in this format.
Reporting build
Scope and duration Four to eight weeks after the data audit. Management pack and metric dictionary; cash view or unit economics if scoped. Two review rounds. Planning range: SGD 8,500–18,000.
You receive Working files, dictionary, refresh instruction, recorded walkthrough. Dashboard work is a line item, not assumed.
Retained analytics
Scope and duration Monthly collect–draft–release–review on named working days, plus a quarterly recalibration. Three-month minimum. Planning range: SGD 2,400–5,800 per month.
You receive The pack on the agreed date, a movement note, review minutes, and a log of drift. Ad-hoc cuts from the existing model are in scope; new models are quoted separately.
Board-pack support
Scope and duration A board or investor pack assembled from the existing dictionary, on your board calendar. Planning range: SGD 1,800–3,600 per cycle, once a reporting build exists.
You receive A stable tab set, a commentary page limited to movement in defined measures, and a version issued 48 hours before the meeting where the calendar allows. We do not write a commercial pitch.
Builds are billed in two or three stages: after the data-audit note, at draft pack, and at handover. Retainers are billed monthly in arrears against the calendar. Out-of-scope extracts, additional entities and extra review rounds are named in the quote as optional lines rather than absorbed.
Travel inside Singapore is not billed separately for Raffles Place meetings in ordinary hours. Work outside Monday–Friday 09:00–18:00 SGT is by prior agreement. Confidential working files stay in a location you control after handover.
We will not accept a success fee, a share of “uplift”, or any arrangement that ties our invoice to revenue, valuation or a financing event. That is outside the practice.
