Rates

Informational rates for database refactoring and query performance consulting. Final quotes depend on schema size, access quality, and change-window constraints.

Pricing below is guidance for planning conversations. It is not a checkout, subscription, or online payment flow. Taxes, travel outside Taipei, and after-hours cutover attendance are quoted separately when needed.

What changes the quote

  • Number of schemas and engines involved
  • Whether staging reproduces production data volumes
  • Need for bilingual documentation (English / Traditional Chinese)
  • On-site presence during high-risk cutovers

Payment rhythm

For fixed assessments we invoice 50% to begin and 50% on delivery of the report. Multi-week refactoring is usually billed weekly against agreed days. See the Refund Policy for cancellations and work already started.
