Request the FD summary (PDF)About the once-off setup fee
Setup is a one-time engagement in which our team configures the system around your actual operation: your documents, your process flows, your users. The standard fee is R5,000 (entry plans R3,850) and covers five allocated working days, enough for a standard single-site facility, delivered in one week or spread over a month if that suits your team better. Should your site be more complex and more days be required, additional days are billed at R1,200 per day, each day allocating 4 hours of on-site work, and this is always quoted and agreed with you in writing before any work begins. The price on your accepted quote is the price you pay. Pricing is transparent and there are no hidden fees.
