Pricing Policies
Clear. Predictable. Effortless to use.
Pricing policies designed to protect Sponsors and keep delivery disciplined.
Alentra’s pricing policies follow the same principles as aviation operations:
clean roles, clear boundaries, and zero ambiguity about what is included, what is not, and how decisions are made.
These policies ensure every Sponsor experiences a pricing model that is:
-
transparent
-
predictable
-
easy to navigate
-
aligned to leadership needs
-
free of hidden labor or blended roles
The result is a pricing system that feels structured, safe, and effortless to use.
Fixed‑Fee Leadership
All leadership offerings — Strategy, Selection, Implementation Assurance, and Value Realization Assurance — are priced as fixed‑fee engagements.
This ensures:
-
no hourly billing
-
no variable labor charges
-
no scope ambiguity
-
no blended roles
Leadership is priced based on intensity and phase, not time spent.
Fixed‑Unit Advisory Blocks
Advisory Blocks are priced as fixed units of leadership time, activated only when needed.
Policies include:
-
no retainers
-
no rolling balances
-
no hour banks
-
no partial units
-
no accumulation or carryover
Each Block is scoped at the moment of need and begins and ends cleanly.
PM+ Priced Separately (Execution Only)
PM+ is priced independently from leadership offerings.
Policies include:
-
execution only — no leadership tasks
-
priced based on coordination intensity
-
no blended rates
-
no overlap with partner PM
-
no substitution for Assurance or Advisory Blocks
This keeps execution clean, predictable, and easy to budget.
No Retainers or Subscriptions
Alentra does not use:
-
monthly retainers
-
subscription fees
-
rolling support packages
-
prepaid hour bundles
Sponsors pay only for the leadership or execution they activate.
No Hidden Labor or Blended Roles
Every offering has a clear role definition.
Policies include:
-
leadership and execution are always separated
-
no mixing of PMO work with advisory
-
no mixing of advisory with technical work
-
no mixing of execution with governance
This prevents scope drift and keeps responsibilities unambiguous.
Clear Scope Before Activation
Before any engagement begins — whether a phase offering, Advisory Block, or PM+ — the scope is defined in plain language.
Policies include:
-
clear deliverables
-
clear boundaries
-
clear responsibilities
-
clear activation criteria
Sponsors always know exactly what they are activating.
No Mid‑Engagement Scope Expansion Without Approval
If new needs arise, they are handled through:
-
Advisory Blocks (leadership)
-
PM+ (execution)
-
or a new phase engagement
Policies include:
-
no automatic scope expansion
-
no assumptions
-
no unapproved labor
-
no partner‑style change‑order pressure
Sponsors remain in full control of scope and spend.
Multi‑Year Pricing Stability
For multi‑year programs, pricing is structured to:
-
align with phase sequencing
-
smooth annual budgets
-
reflect intensity changes
-
reduce volatility
Policies include:
-
no mid‑year price changes
-
no retroactive adjustments
-
no partner‑style rate escalators
Pricing remains stable and predictable across the entire transformation.
Clean Handoffs Between Offerings
Each offering has a defined start and end.
Policies include:
-
no overlap between phases
-
no blended deliverables
-
no ambiguous transitions
-
no double‑billing
This mirrors aviation:
clear handoffs between ground crew, cockpit, and Flight Operations.
Sponsor‑Side Alignment Only
Alentra works exclusively on behalf of the Sponsor.
Policies include:
-
no partner incentives
-
no partner‑aligned billing
-
no shared commercial interests
-
no conflicts of interest
Pricing is structured to protect the Sponsor’s mission, not the partner’s margins.
Simple, Effortless Activation
Every offering is designed to be easy to activate and easy to use.
Policies include:
-
one conversation to activate
-
no administrative burden
-
no complex onboarding
-
no multi‑week scoping cycles
Sponsors get clarity and support exactly when they need it.
