How much do you charge?

It really depends on how much and the type of  work that needs to be done. We try to be competitive. Normally what we do is plan out the work that needs to be done.  A quote is then prepared based on time estimates. Creative Design Solutions is flexible in that it can offer both a fixed price quote or an hourly rate charge. Whichever suits you best.

Can you work on my site?

Yes if required, this usually ends up costing more since travel allowance is factored into the pricing. Creative Design Solutions has access to facilities and equipment which some companies may not have. It is therefore more normal for Creative Design Solutions to get on with the job remotely. Visiting the customer as and when required for meetings etc. There are times when it is more practical to work on site. Flexibility on both sides is normally the best policy.

Is a design service not going to cost me more?

On the face of it, one would expect design services to cost more than hiring engineers to do the job yourself. There are many factors to take into consideration. For example recruitment cost, office space, equipment cost, time spent organising these things. Creative Design Solutions aims to provide an added value service at a similar rate to contract staff. Why not ask for a quote for your project? For a more detailed discussion of pros & cons of design service/contract/permanent staff, click here.
