5.1 Engagement Structure

All consulting services are provided on a project basis or retainer basis as defined in individual SOWs. Engagements typically follow this structure:

• Discovery — Initial consultation to understand requirements, challenges, and objectives.
• Proposal — A detailed SOW outlining scope, deliverables, timeline, and fees for mutual agreement.
• Execution — Delivery of services as defined in the SOW, with regular progress updates and milestone reviews.
• Completion — Final delivery of all agreed-upon deliverables and knowledge transfer.

5.2 Client Responsibilities

To enable us to deliver services effectively, you agree to:

• Provide timely access to information, systems, personnel, and resources reasonably required for the engagement.
• Designate a primary point of contact with decision-making authority for the engagement.
• Review and provide feedback on deliverables within the timeframes specified in the SOW.
• Inform us promptly of any changes in requirements, priorities, or circumstances that may affect the engagement.

5.3 Confidentiality

Both parties agree to maintain strict confidentiality of all proprietary, non-public information disclosed during the engagement. Confidential Information includes business strategies, financial data, technical information, trade secrets, client lists, employee information, and any other information reasonably understood to be confidential. This obligation survives termination of the engagement and these Terms for a period of five (5) years, or longer where required by applicable law. Confidentiality obligations do not apply to information that is publicly available, independently developed, or required to be disclosed by law.

5.4 Direct Partnership Model

Strategia-X operates on a direct partnership model. You work directly with the principal consultant — not intermediaries, junior associates, or outsourced personnel — unless otherwise agreed in writing. This ensures consistent quality, accountability, and deep understanding of your business throughout the engagement.

Specific fees and payment terms are established in individual SOWs. The following general terms apply unless otherwise agreed in writing:

• Engagement Models — We offer fixed-price engagements for defined deliverables and time-and-materials engagements for ongoing or variable-scope work. The applicable model will be specified in your SOW.
• Invoicing — Invoices are issued in accordance with the payment schedule defined in the SOW, typically monthly or upon milestone completion.
• Payment Due — Unless otherwise specified, invoices are payable within thirty (30) days of the invoice date.
• Late Payments — Overdue invoices may accrue interest at a rate of 1.5% per month (or the maximum rate permitted by applicable law, whichever is lower) on the outstanding balance, calculated from the due date until paid in full.
• Suspension of Services — We reserve the right to suspend Services if payment is more than thirty (30) days overdue, upon providing written notice. Services will resume promptly upon receipt of all outstanding payments.
• Taxes — All fees are exclusive of applicable taxes. You are responsible for any sales tax, use tax, value-added tax, or similar taxes imposed by any jurisdiction, excluding taxes based on Strategia-X's income.
• Expenses — Reasonable, pre-approved out-of-pocket expenses (travel, software licenses, hardware) incurred in connection with the engagement will be billed at cost and are payable in addition to consulting fees.

7.1 Services Warranty

We warrant that our consulting Services will be performed in a professional and workmanlike manner consistent with generally accepted industry standards. If any Services fail to conform to this warranty, your sole remedy shall be for us to re-perform the non-conforming Services at no additional charge, provided you notify us in writing within thirty (30) days of delivery.

11.2 Binding Arbitration

If a dispute cannot be resolved informally, you and Strategia-X agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Site shall be resolved through binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules.

11.4 Exceptions

Notwithstanding the above, either party may seek injunctive or equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement or misappropriation of intellectual property rights or confidential information.

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, United States, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. To the extent that arbitration is not applicable, you consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts located in the State of California for any legal proceedings arising out of or relating to these Terms.

Neither party shall be liable for any failure or delay in performance of its obligations under these Terms (excluding payment obligations) to the extent that such failure or delay results from circumstances beyond the reasonable control of that party, including but not limited to acts of God, natural disasters, epidemics or pandemics, war, terrorism, government actions, labor disputes, power failures, internet or telecommunications failures, cyberattacks, or other events beyond reasonable control. The affected party shall provide prompt notice and use reasonable efforts to mitigate the impact of the force majeure event.

• Severability — If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, that provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable, or severed if modification is not possible, and the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.
• Waiver — Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. Any waiver must be in writing and signed by Strategia-X.
