Brief & scope
30-minute discovery call, NDA if needed, and a written scoping note: deliverables, exclusions, assumptions, fee structure, timeline.

- You receive: scoping note + fee proposal
Every engagement follows the same five-phase rhythm. The depth varies — a power-quality investigation might compress phases 2-3 into a week; a bankable feasibility study can run six months — but the structure is constant. You always know what phase you're in, what's due, and what you're paying for.
30-minute discovery call, NDA if needed, and a written scoping note: deliverables, exclusions, assumptions, fee structure, timeline.
One or more site visits to inspect installations, read meters, photograph nameplates, and interview operators. Single-line diagrams and historical bills collected.
Off-site engineering in ETAP, spreadsheets, and IPMVP-compliant M&V templates. Iterative scenarios run against the as-built model.
Stamped, audit-ready report with executive summary, technical body, costed recommendations, and an appendix of raw model outputs.
We stay engaged through tendering, installation, factory and site acceptance tests, and commissioning. Optional ongoing M&V.
Most common. A scoped deliverable (e.g. "Investment-grade audit of Plant 02") at a fixed fee with a defined timeline. Suits audits, feasibility studies, and discrete electrical calculations.
Open-ended work where scope can't be defined up-front — power-quality investigations, expert-witness work, troubleshooting. Billed in hour increments against an estimate and ceiling.
We sit on the client side of an EPC contract — reviewing drawings, attending FAT/SAT, signing off variations, holding the EPC to spec. Common on captive-solar and substation builds.
A pre-paid pool of engineering hours per quarter, for clients who need ongoing M&V, regulatory liaison, or ad-hoc technical opinion. Hours roll over within the year.
No matter the engagement format, every report you receive follows the same skeleton. Executives read the first 4 pages and stop. Engineers and lenders read the appendices. Nobody has to translate.
1–2 pages. The finding, the recommendation, the headline number. Written for a CFO.
The how. Methods, assumptions, model inputs, standards cited. Written for the next engineer who picks up the file.
Each recommendation costed in USD with a payback period, IRR, and risk band. Written for the project office.
Raw ETAP outputs, single-line diagrams, monitor logs, photographs, supplier quotes. Written for the lender's due-diligence reviewer.
A free 30-minute scoping call is the first step. We come back with a written scope and a fee structure within 3 working days.
