Tools you can use.

Unlimited Use

Most analytical reports are available on an unlimited use basis. Under this option the client is given direct access to the Organizational Engineering system over the internet. The results are delivered by email to any location that the client specifies. Alternatively, the reports can be viewed directly through the internet browser. The completed reports are usually available in less than 10 minutes.

Unlimited use is priced on the basis of the total number of employees in the organizational unit covered (this can be less than an entire firm). The client and the PCI representative together estimate the likely usage by these employees. Finally, a price representing a substantial discount from retail is negotiated to the satisfaction of both parties. The minimum term of an agreement is one year.

Direct Access

Consultants and smaller firms may elect to establish an account that gives them electronic access to all of the features available to the unlimited user. This service requires a small setup fee and an agreed upon monthly billing. The higher the agreed upon minimum monthly billing, the greater the discount from retail prices.

The total usage is calculated on a monthly basis. A discount from individual instance prices is then applied. If the usage exceeds the agreed upon minimum no additional fee is charged. If the usage falls short of the minimum, an amount sufficient to bring the total billing up to the minimum agreed upon fee is added. The final amount due will be billed to the client’s credit card and a paid invoice is mailed to the client.

Individual Instance

All of the reports and services of PCI can be purchased individually. This option usually involves transmitting completed "I Opt" Surveys to PCI offices (i.e., email, fax, snail mail, etc.) with instructions on what reports are desired and delivery instructions.

Individual instance services are priced on the basis of the individual reports requested at full retail. Turnaround time is dependent on the volume of work in process at the time the request and is usually 24 hours or less but can extend to 48 hours. If a client wishes insure that their reports are available within a specified timeframe of less than 48 hours they can elect Expedited Service. Expedited service will be charged at a 40% premium over the ordinary retail prices.

Retail Pricing

The full retail prices of all "I Opt" Reports are extremely low and there is no minimum order. For competitive reasons PCI does not publish its retail prices on the Internet. However, people with a serious interest in applying "I Opt" technology can contact PCI for a price sheet of all retail prices.

Payment Options

PCI has chosen to price its reports at very reasonable levels. This means that typical individual instance transactions tend to be relatively modest amounts. PCI prefers payment by credit card for these small transactions. PCI accepts VISA, Master Card and American Express.

Established firms involved in larger or multiple transactions can elect to have charges invoiced.
