Engagement Models  
  Ensemble Consultants has always preferred a fixed price model, as it helps put the customer's mind at ease. This model ensures that financials are put out of the way the moment the contract is signed. At the same time, Ensemble Consultants has many existing client relations where we work on a retainer / time & material model.

Our engagement models are:

Project based pricing

A low risk option when function point analysis can be done on specifications
Typical usage - Mature technologies, longer project duration, stable requirements

Effort based pricing

Project cost is dependent on the resources deployed in consultation with client
Typical usage - complex & changing requirements , need for customer flexibility, shorter project timeframes.
