ProjectPhD

Pricing

Priced by program materiality. Not by seat.

Traditional assurance is credible, thorough, and designed for a different problem. At $40,000–$80,000 per engagement, it cannot be commissioned at every stage gate for every material program. ProjectPhD occupies the gap between what full assurance costs and what stage gates require.

What is not included
Scope boundaries
  • The Board Assurance Report is a standardised stage-gate control diagnostic. It is not a financial audit, not full program assurance, and does not constitute a certification or guarantee of outcomes.
  • ProjectPhD does not predict success or failure. It provides comparative cohort outcome rates paired with transparent confidence drivers and explicit cohort-size disclosure.
When you need more
  • Where full independent assurance is required, the Evidence Review strengthens the evidence base, and the Assurance Panel RFP Pack controls the scope and quality of full assurance under panel rules.
