## Frequently Asked Questions

### How do we begin working with Fixinc?

Start with an initial consultation to understand needs and objectives through a 45-minute discovery call. This is followed by a digital proposal outlining recommended services, approach, timeframes, and investment required. A detailed project plan is then developed based on agreed priorities. Once signed, an engagement meeting is conducted within a 4-week window, and then the program begins.

### How do you ensure program adoption across the organisation?

Fixinc uses a combination of engagement strategies, including stakeholder workshops, training sessions, communication campaigns, and practical exercises to build awareness and capability across all levels of the organisation. Relationships are built with key team members through email campaigns, one-on-one meetings, and connecting over LinkedIn to build trust and uncover issues or ideas from colleagues.

### Do you provide ongoing support after the program is implemented?

Yes, and in fact, it is the core service offering outcome. Fixinc seeks to build lifelong partnerships with individuals and organisations. This allows deep integration into the fabric of the organisation and threat landscape, builds relationships where advisors are always available to support, and holds accountability to ensure resilience capability is continuously growing.

### What kind of outcomes can we expect from your services?

Clear documentation, trained teams, and validated plans. More than that, organisations walk away with confidence in their program and real-world readiness across people, processes, and systems.

### What makes Fixinc different from other resilience solutions?

First and foremost, it is the simplicity of programs. Fixinc believes that resilience can be a simple, modern skill developed through building a culture of resilience and removing the noise of bulky plans and poor technology.

### What information do you need from us to get started?

Initially, understanding of current resilience capabilities, regulatory obligations, key risks, and strategic objectives is needed. A detailed information request is provided once scope of engagement is agreed via the client portal.

### What happens after the initial engagement is complete?

Fixinc does not disappear after delivery. Through the Loyalty Program and Maintenance model, Fixinc stays connected, reviews evolving risks, and makes ongoing improvements so resilience remains future-proof.

### How long does it take for a program to be rolled out?

The team focuses heavily on streamlined project management processes. Own technology is utilised to create implementation plans that make every step seamless. External factors like getting teams involved with meetings may impact time, but techniques are available to speed this up. Typically, a single program can take between 5 weeks and 3 months.

### Do you offer one-off services or long-term programs?

Fixinc specialises in long-term resilience through the Maintenance Program, but also offers short-term engagements. Most clients begin with a single service and scale into a full partnership.

### What makes Fixinc different from traditional consulting firms?

Fixinc is not a tick-box consultancy. The approach combines deep industry experience with modern, tech-enabled tools to deliver practical, scalable resilience programs. No bloated teams, no unnecessary delays, just results.

### How quickly can you start working with us?

Depending on the scope, discovery and implementation can begin within 1 to 2 weeks. For urgent validation activities or crisis support, mobilisation can happen even faster.

### How much does a typical program cost?

In most cases, programs start from $10,000 AUD. However, reviews are as little as a few thousand. After establishing scope of work and requirements, an initial quote can be provided within the same day of enquiry. Fixinc believes in long-term partnerships, so if budgets are a restraint, flexible arrangements are available.
