The offers, with the prices on them.

Buyers shortlist the firms that answer the price question first, so here they are. Every figure below is a floor for a defined scope, and every engagement is confirmed in a written proposal before any commitment. Product engineering and delivery contracts run through Handisi Digital Solutions Limited; everything on this page is the consulting practice.

Digital Readiness Audit

From $3,500 (USD) · fixed

2–3 weeks

A structured, written answer to "what state are our systems really in, and what should we do first?" Architecture, security posture, vendor contracts and processes, all reviewed by a senior engineer with no stake in the answer.

Included

Systems & architecture review
Security and infrastructure posture snapshot
Prioritised 12-month roadmap with cost bands
Written report + a leadership briefing session

Right for: Organisations about to spend on new systems, inheriting old ones, or answering a board/donor who asked "are we digitally ready?"

Not included: Implementation. The audit tells you what to build; delivery is scoped separately.

Fractional CTO

From $2,000 (USD) / month · retainer

ongoing, monthly

An engineer's judgment in the room every month, not a one-off. Architecture ownership, vendor and procurement oversight, hiring support and honest technical counsel for organisations that can't yet justify a full-time CTO.

Included

Architecture and technology-selection ownership
Vendor evaluation & procurement support (no reseller affiliations)
Technical hiring: role scoping, interviews, onboarding
Monthly board-ready technology report

Right for: SMEs and NGOs with 1–2 dev teams or outsourced vendors, needing senior oversight without a senior salary.

Not included: Hands-on feature development, which routes to a delivery team (or to Handisi).

Delivery Management

From $3,000 (USD) / month · time & materials

programme duration

End-to-end management of complex, multi-stakeholder technology programmes. That includes donor-funded government work, where reporting discipline and stakeholder patience decide success as much as code does.

Included

PRINCE2-based methodology with Agile adaptation
Stakeholder management across government, donor and technical teams
Vendor and joint-venture coordination
Programme reporting your funders will actually accept

Right for: Donor-funded programmes, ministries' implementing partners, and joint ventures where delivery is stuck between vendors.

Not included: Nothing hidden: engineering resources are costed transparently in the proposal.

On payment: international clients invoice in USD (bank transfer or Wise); Tanzanian clients may pay in TZS by bank transfer or M-Pesa. Terms live in each proposal.

On honesty: if the discovery call shows you don't need a consultant (or need a different one), you'll be told so on the call, free.
