Ant's starting budget hypothesis is that each target company may have roughly £50k–£100k available for consultative guidance/support around Maximo/MAS.
This is a commercial hypothesis, not validated buyer evidence yet.
Open questions
- Is £50k–£100k credible as a first packaged advisory offer?
- Does this sit inside maintenance/engineering, IT, transformation, or procurement budget?
- What would buyers expect to receive for this spend?
