Common questions
Frequently asked questions
Pricing, timelines, confidentiality, funder standards: answers to the questions we are asked most often.
How much does a service cost, and how is the price set?
The price depends on the complexity of the model, the sector and the deadline. After an initial discussion, we send you a fixed-price quote within 48 hours. The agreed amount does not change during the engagement.
How long does it take?
Allow 1 to 2 weeks for a model audit, and 2 to 4 weeks for a full project finance model. The exact timeline is confirmed in the quote and takes your submission deadline into account.
Who does the work?
Your model is handled by our multidisciplinary team, combining engineering and project finance expertise. We do not outsource your file to anonymous analysts: you have a direct point of contact.
How do you guarantee confidentiality?
A non-disclosure agreement (NDA) is signed before any data is shared. Your information and your clients’ remain strictly protected.
Do you work from my existing model or start from scratch?
Both. We can audit and strengthen your existing model, or build a new one to IFI standards. We adapt to your starting point.
Do you follow a specific standard?
Yes. Our models follow the recognised best practices of international financial institutions (AFD, AfDB, World Bank, IFC): traceable assumptions, standard ratios (IRR, NPV, DSCR, LLCR), sensitivity analyses. We can also follow the format required by a specific funder.
What happens if the lender or funder has comments after delivery?
A revision cycle is included in every service. We incorporate the lender’s or funder’s comments so that your file clears the submission stage.
How does payment work?
Fixed price, in two instalments: a deposit on order, the balance on validated delivery. Escrow-protected payment is available for a first engagement. International bank transfer accepted.
