The 3-Scenario Audit: Why We Don't Charge for Diagnostics
Most cloud consulting agencies charge $1,500 to $5,000 just to analyze your systems and tell you what's wrong.
We don't. We provide a complete, technical diagnostics report up front — for free. Here is why we structured our business this way, and how the 3-Scenario Audit works.
Eliminating the "Discovery Call" Fluff
Standard agencies lock you in a 3-step loop:
- A sales call where a non-technical account manager asks about your budget.
- A discovery phase where you pay them to audit your system.
- A proposal presentation that is often vague and full of placeholder estimates.
We bypass this overhead. We are engineers, not salespeople. We want to look at the logs, find the misconfigurations, and show you the exact architecture needed to fix them.
The Three Scenarios
Every audit we deliver maps out your options across three paths:
Scenario A: Do Nothing (The Baseline)
We tell you what happens if you leave the systems as they are. This includes identifying security exposures, predicted storage overages, or compliance gaps. We list the direct business risks (e.g. "without DKIM alignment, you will see a 12% rise in spam routing").
Scenario B: The Clean Up (Quick Wins)
The immediate remediation steps needed to secure your current environment. This uses the platforms you already pay for (e.g., hardening SPF/DMARC, enabling Entra security defaults, setting up basic Teams permissions). It's focused on immediate ROI.
Scenario C: The Modernization (The Blueprint)
The future-state architecture. We outline how to automate manual tasks with Microsoft Graph or custom workflows, set up Zero Trust policies, or run compliance structures like GCC High.
Our Risk-Free Guarantee
If the audit reveals your tenant is already perfectly configured, we tell you immediately and shake hands. There is no pitch. If we find issues, you have the exact blueprint to fix them — whether you hire us, do it internally, or use another engineer.
