Engagement Options

Pricing

Engagements are scoped for organizations outside of AEC (architecture/engineering/construction), manufacturing, media & entertainment, and Autodesk's existing customer and partner ecosystem. Any potential overlap is disclosed and reviewed before engagement.

Launch pricing: 25% off all engagements through September 30, 2026 with LAUNCH25
How pricing works: the Scope Lock

Listed prices are real prices for a defined baseline scope. Your free consultation sizes your actual scope; if it's bigger than the baseline, your SOW prices the difference transparently before you sign anything. Once the SOW signs, the price locks: baseline overruns are on us, and new scope mid-engagement is a written change order, priced before the work and never billed retroactively.

Common Questions

FAQ

What happens during the initial consultation? +
The initial consultation is a complimentary 30-minute call where we discuss your product challenges, goals, and timeline. This helps us both determine if there is a fit and which engagement model suits your needs. There is no obligation or pressure to commit.
How do the engagement options differ? +
The Strategic Roadmap Engagement is a fixed-scope diagnostic and advisory deliverable for organizations defining their product or AI strategy. The Fractional Chief Product Officer is an ongoing embedded executive partnership for product leadership. The Strategy Sprint is a focused 2-week engagement to deliver strategic clarity and an actionable roadmap. Expert Advisory Access is a prepaid block of 4 advisory hours, scheduled flexibly within 12 months of purchase, ideal for targeted challenges without a long-term commitment.
What does the Fractional Chief Product Officer engagement cover? +
The Fractional Chief Product Officer engagement is embedded executive product leadership on a fractional basis. It covers product vision and strategy, roadmap ownership, stakeholder and board-level alignment, vendor evaluation, team mentoring, and cross-functional governance. The client gets a dedicated senior product leader without the cost of a full-time C-level hire.
Who is the Strategic Roadmap Engagement for? +
Organizations that need a clearer product or AI strategy and a defensible roadmap before they commit to large internal investments. It is a fixed-scope diagnostic and advisory deliverable. Malcolm advises, frames, and takes selective implementation work in the context of the engagement: prototypes, technical blueprints, and integration designs. Productionization at scale is handed off to the client's team or chosen implementation partner.
Can I transition between engagement types? +
Absolutely. Many clients start with a Strategy Sprint and then transition into a Fractional Chief Product Officer engagement or a Strategic Roadmap Engagement. Each engagement is designed to stand on its own while also serving as a natural entry point to deeper advisory partnership.
Are all engagements advisory? +
Most engagements are advisory-led (strategy, architecture, and roadmap work) and many include hands-on implementation: prototypes, technical blueprints, integration designs, and selective configuration delivered in the context of the advisory engagement. The practice does not operate as a productized engineering build-shop, and the scope of any implementation work is agreed in writing before kickoff.
What industries and company sizes do you work with? +
I work with organizations ranging from funded startups to Fortune 500 enterprises across financial services, professional services, SaaS, healthcare, and retail. Engagements are scoped for organizations outside of AEC (architecture/engineering/construction), manufacturing, media & entertainment, and Autodesk's existing customer and partner ecosystem. Any potential overlap is disclosed and reviewed before engagement.
What does AI strategy and roadmap advisory mean? +
Agentic and AI-powered systems are increasingly central to enterprise product strategy. I advise organizations on AI roadmap, vendor and tooling evaluation, product discovery for AI-enabled features, governance frameworks, and selective implementation work: prototypes, agentic system designs, MCP integration specs, and proof-of-concept builds delivered in the context of an advisory engagement. Productionization at scale is handed off to the client's internal team or chosen implementation partner.
What are the payment terms? +
All engagements are paid in full at time of purchase. For the Fractional Chief Product Officer engagement, the first month is paid at purchase and subsequent months are billed automatically. All payments are processed securely through Stripe with support for credit cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and bank transfers. You can upgrade, downgrade, or switch plans at any billing cycle.
Do you offer any guarantees? +
I stand behind the quality of my work. Every engagement includes a written scope agreement and milestone reviews to ensure alignment throughout. Any engagement can be fully refunded if canceled before work begins. For monthly plans, if you cancel mid-month you receive a pro-rated refund, so you only pay for what you actually receive. You can also upgrade or switch plans at any billing cycle.
How do workshop logistics, travel, and cancellations work? +
Workshops require a signed engagement agreement, with full payment due 14 days before the workshop date. Cancellations receive a full refund if canceled 30+ days before, 50% refund if canceled 14-29 days before, and no refund within 14 days (rescheduling is available within 90 days). For on-site workshops, the client provides venue, A/V equipment, and catering. Travel and expenses (flights, accommodations, meals, ground transportation) are billed at cost with receipts provided and booked only after the workshop agreement is signed; no travel fee applies within 50 miles.
How do you handle confidentiality? +
All engagements are covered by a mutual NDA signed before any substantive work begins. Your proprietary information, strategy documents, and internal data are treated with the same level of confidentiality I have upheld across previous enterprise roles.
