Rates
Transparent starting fees for commodity price trend work — final quotes follow a short scope call.
Fees reflect the commodity’s complexity, the horizon, and how much proprietary material you need us to review. The figures below are starting points in pounds sterling, exclusive of VAT where applicable.
| Engagement | Starting fee | Typical turnaround |
|---|---|---|
| Commodity price trend assessment | £2,800 | ~10 business days |
| Procurement price review | £1,900 | ~7 business days |
| Sector outlook briefing | £4,200 | Scheduled after prep call |
| Assessment update (same commodity, within 8 weeks) | £1,200 | ~4 business days |
| On-site workshop day (London or UK travel) | Quoted | By diary |
What changes the fee
- Dual-origin or dual-grade comparisons inside one assessment
- Heavy reliance on client-only datasets that need cleaning before use
- Rush delivery under five business days
- Travel outside Greater London for workshops
How billing works
We issue a short proposal after the scope call. A forty percent deposit confirms the slot; the balance is due on delivery of the final brief or completion of the briefing day. We do not sell subscriptions or automatic renewals.
Estimates without obligation
If you are unsure which engagement fits, describe the commodity and the decision date on the contact form. We will recommend a format and a fee range before any work begins.
