FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Common questions, straight answers.

Everything you need to know about working with Swiftly Business Consulting.

Working with Swiftly Business Consulting

What does "embedded consulting" actually mean?

It means our consultants join your team as integrated members — not as external advisors who visit once a week. We work alongside your people, in your systems, on your timeline. Think of it as hiring a senior expert without the recruitment process.

How quickly can you start?

Most engagements begin within 5–10 business days of signing. We don’t have long mobilisation cycles — our consultants are pre-vetted and ready to deploy.

What does the onboarding process look like?

After the discovery call, you receive a scoped proposal within 48 hours. Once signed, your consultant embeds with your team within days. We follow your tools, your processes, and your communication channels from day one.

Services & Scope

What industries do you work with?

We specialise in mid-market companies across manufacturing, distribution, water treatment, and professional services. Our consultants have deep experience in industries with complex supply chains, multi-entity structures, and ERP-dependent operations.

What ERP systems do you support?

Our team has hands-on experience with SAP Business One, Microsoft Dynamics 365, Odoo, and several industry-specific ERPs. We’re system-agnostic — we focus on the business outcome, not the vendor.

Can you help with M&A integrations?

Absolutely. M&A integration is one of our core strengths. We’ve delivered multiple post-acquisition integrations including ERP consolidation, data migration, process harmonisation, and team alignment — often under tight legal deadlines.

Pricing & Contracts

How does pricing work?

We offer transparent, monthly pricing based on the consultant level you need — Junior (€1,500/mo), Medior (€2,000/mo), or Senior (€2,500/mo). No hidden fees, no surprise invoices. You pay for the level of expertise, not for hours.

Is there a minimum commitment period?

We work on rolling monthly engagements. There’s no long-term lock-in. Most clients engage for 3–6 months, but you can scale up, scale down, or end the engagement with 30 days’ notice.

How do your rates compare to the market?

Belgian consulting market rates typically range from €800–€1,500/day for comparable expertise. Our monthly model translates to significantly lower effective daily rates while providing dedicated, embedded support rather than occasional advisory visits.

Technical

Do you work with companies outside Belgium?

Yes. We’ve delivered projects across Belgium, Netherlands, Czech Republic, Hungary, Austria, and the Philippines. Our team operates in English, Dutch, and French.

What tools and methodologies do you use?

We adapt to your existing toolset. Our consultants are proficient in Jira, Confluence, Monday.com, Asana, Microsoft Project, and most common business tools. Methodology-wise, we blend Agile and Waterfall approaches based on what fits your project best.

How do you handle data security and confidentiality?

Every engagement starts with an NDA. Our consultants follow your data governance policies and access controls. We never retain client data after engagement completion, and we can work within your VPN and security infrastructure.
