What would bespoke actually cost you?

Bespoke build vs Output IQ

Paying consultants to scope, design and deliver a bespoke build adds up fast. Output IQ's fast implementation makes you efficient sooner and saves on the overall price.

How to read it

Bespoke consultancy typically runs around £1,000 a day, and a project that genuinely moves the needle is rarely fewer than ten days — so £10,000 is a fair starting point. Set the day rate and days to match a quote you've had, and the Output IQ figure to your plan price. The multiplier shows how many years of the productised system that one-off project would buy.

It's the whole reason Output IQ exists: the same approach that turned manufacturers around, built once and priced so an SME can simply run it.
