Advisory Retainer — $10,000 / month
Are you worried about the scalability of your biotech or chemical technology? I've been through it, and know that bad strategic decisions early on can mean failure. The key is to make the most of your resource constrained environment to de-risk and optimize your technology as you scale.
I’ll help you make decisions with confidence and clarity as you navigate the bumpy road of scaleup.
Our consulting engagement will give you access to the strategic and tactical scaleup expertise you need, when you need it.
How does it work?
Our agreement entitles you to unlimited 24/7 access between me and a single point of contact via phone, email, secure messaging, and text. I return all messages no later than the next business day, although in practice response time is much quicker (particularly between 9am to 5pm ET, but also nights and weekends).
Meetings are scheduled in advance, and can be by phone or online meeting (Teams, Zoom, or Google Meet).
There are 6 possible areas of involvement:
Participation in an initial in-depth, in person meeting to define long term business goals, existing scaleup work to date, and organizational challenges.
Regular meetings with the primary project contact to discuss strategy, longer-term issues, and business goals.
Strategic and tactical advice based on a series of ongoing meetings with team leaders. These are individualized and mutually agreed upon. In addition, I’ll serve as a sounding board as they work to achieve their business and technical goals.
Technical review of engineering documents, datasets from lab, pilot, demonstration and commercial scale operations, scaleup plans, technical organization and hiring plans, etc.
Access to my international network of equipment vendors, engineering firms, contract manufacturing organizations, and modeling specialists.
Situational responsiveness to needs that arise that you deem require my assistance, which are not covered elsewhere.
My fee is $10,000 USD per month, all inclusive (i.e., I arrange and pay for any necessary travel, administrative expenses, etc). Professional courtesy discounts are available for quarterly and annual arrangements. Participation is extremely limited. You can elect to be added to the waiting list if spots are not available.
