Structuring responsibility for real-world AI delivery
How pricing is determined
Pricing depends on the use case, delivery scope, system dependencies, team responsibilities, and operating environment.
After an initial scoping conversation, Tactical Edge provides a written proposal covering deliverables, assumptions, customer inputs, milestones, fees, and how scope changes are handled.
The sections below show work that can be included. Pricing is provided in the scoped proposal.
Engagement Modes
Advisory & Strategy
Clarifying intent, boundaries, and system direction before execution.
Design & Engineering
Architecture, data, application, agent, and integration engineering for a defined system scope.
Implementation & Integration
Integrating AI capabilities with existing systems and defining release, monitoring, and rollback criteria.
Proof of Concept & Pilot Programs
Testing technical and operating assumptions against agreed acceptance criteria.
Managed AI Operations
Monitoring, incident support, evaluation, and improvement work after launch.
Expert Teams
Adding specialist capacity to a customer-led or jointly led delivery team.
Duration & Continuity
Choose a Bounded or Ongoing Engagement
A strategy assessment or pilot can have a defined end point. Implementation and managed operations can continue through agreed release stages or operating periods. Duration is set after the dependencies and customer responsibilities are understood.
Responsibility & Ownership
• Strategic direction remains with the organization
• System-level responsibility is shared during engagement
• Operational ownership is explicit and documented
• Boundaries and exit conditions are defined upfront
How Pricing Is Structured
| Pricing input | Clarified in the proposal |
|---|---|
| System scope and complexity | Included systems, workflows, and deliverables |
| Duration and responsibility | Milestones and engagement period |
| Production exposure | Environment access and customer dependencies |
| Security and compliance needs | Controls, evidence, and acceptance criteria |
What Buyers Receive
The proposal and statement of work identify the scope, exclusions, dependencies, delivery roles, acceptance process, price basis, and change process so technical, business, and procurement teams can review the same plan.
