Unfortunately, I can't disclose that, but I can tell you what market rates tend to be. I've seen firms in this space charge anything from $10k to $150k per deal. The lower end tends to be the "one man shop" and the larger end tends to be more established advisory firms who work on large and or complex deals.

That sounds… cheap. Like that’s less than the monthly take home for a single non descript engineer.

Quite the contrary. The projects last 2~3 weeks.

Yeah I think having an hourly rate would have been more useful, but I appreciate their reply regardless.

I’ve done DD for a small SaaS acquisition. But from the sell side. It was a decent amount of work providing access, diagrams, answering questions, etc. I would think anywhere from $150-$300/hour depending on the deal size.

Where are you making $150k a month and are you hiring?

I'd assume the higher end includes the auditing company holding a pile of compliance certs. Those can be pretty expensive to pick up.
