Ranges, not theater. We publish what a Puppet health check, OpenVox migration sprint, CMaaS retainer, and openvox-gui standup actually cost.
Request by email (info@ssconsultinggroup.net) or LinkedIn. The Calendly link is only the free 15-minute intro call.

Three classes, four days each (Mon–Thu, about 26–27 contact hours). Public classes are per student, minimum 5: User $2,500 (max 12), Journeyman $2,500 (max 10), Architect $2,750 (max 8). A private corporate class is $16,500 per class week (minimum 5; you cover instructor travel). Prefer three consecutive weeks; the series can be split. On-site regional first, then private on-site, then live remote. Every class awards a certificate of completion; formal certification is planned. Public dates: ask us. See the classes.
Waves after the health check and sprint. You see the hours before anything is signed. We do not quote a round number on the first call.
$185–$210 / hour on SSCG paper. We decline work that only makes sense as cheap body shopping.
Travel is GSA per diem + actuals, or a simple +$1,500/week onsite adder. Projects start at 50% to begin, net 15. Retainers bill in advance. We discount scope, not rate.
Send a short note about node count, PE vs OSS vs OpenVox, and the pain. We reply within 24 hours with an honest recommendation — including “you don’t need us yet.”
