Why Nick Bentley Associates?

​

Apart from the wealth of experience and the success that he offers, the prime consideration is COST.

​

With large Consultancies Charging up to $3,000 per day for Associate Directors, $2,000 per day for Senior Consultants and $1,500 a day for Support Consultants the costs of Third Party Consultants can be prohibitive.

 

They justify their rates by the costs of the packages they pay to their staff, office rental and overheads.

 

Nick Bentley works from home in the United Kingdom so there are no accommodation costs, no office costs and limited overheads.

 

On this basis his charge out rates are less than half that of an Associate Director added to which you receive a personal service rather rely on good fortune that you get the right team.

 

With modern technology such as video conferencing through Skype and Zoom and the ability to transfer large volumes of information securely through “Drop Boxes”, being present in a Country full time is no longer necessary.

 

Flights to the Middle East can be kept to a minimum and will only be necessary for presentation and final negotiations with the Client Company.

 

By charging by the hour, Clients can be certain of getting value for money.

 

The Company can operate on a “retainer” basis wherein for a fixed monthly sum the client can receive a fixed number of days per month to be consulted on any contractual matters.

 

Should the number of days not be used in a particular month then any balance will be transferred to the following month.

 

At the end of the annual agreement up to 20% of the annual days can be rolled over into the following year.

 

Imagine the reassurance of any of your project management team or commercial team getting advice on an Ad Hoc basis through video conferencing.

​

Under certain circumstances we will consider working on a Pro Bono basis meaning we only get paid when the client gets paid - Flights and a per diem would be paid when incurred
