PRICING AND SUBSCRIPTION MODEL
Insight Ready Platform™ Pricing
A transparent, standardized pricing model aligned to organizational maturity — two tiers, two phases, and no hidden costs.
The Insight Ready Platform™ pricing model is designed for regulated organizations that require a governed, AI-ready analytics environment with consistent KPI definitions, semantic alignment, and continuous platform evolution. Pricing is simple, predictable, and structured around a two-phase modernization path that reduces commitment risk and ensures every organization starts on a stable, governed foundation.
All Azure infrastructure included. One monthly number. Nothing hidden.
Phase 2 IDPaaS subscription pricing is all-inclusive — Azure compute, storage, pipeline operations, semantic layer management, governance operations, BI development, AI capabilities, and continuous platform enhancements are all covered by a single monthly subscription. Organizations eliminate the unpredictable mix of infrastructure invoices, staffing costs, and project budgets that characterize DIY analytics builds.
PHASE 1
Governed Foundation
Fixed-scope implementation inside your Azure environment — production-ready in 6 to 12 weeks
Phase 1 establishes the governed data foundation required for a clean, confident transition to Phase 2. Every IDPaaS subscription begins with a Phase 1 engagement — it ensures the Foundation Environment, governed pipelines, semantic layer, and data quality monitoring are in place before the fully managed subscription starts. A Phase 1 implementation credit is applied toward the first months of your Phase 2 subscription.

ADD-ONS
Optional Capabilities to Extend Your Platform
Each add-on is a purposeful expansion of a specific platform capability — governed pipelines, semantic coverage, or AI depth. Add-ons are scoped, governed, and delivered with the same quality and lineage standards as the base platform.
Additional Data Domains
Contact for pricing
Expansion of governed pipelines and semantic models to new operational, clinical, financial, or third-party data domains. Each domain expansion includes source connection, Bronze to Silver to Gold pipeline build, semantic layer integration, KPI alignment, data quality rules, and lineage capture.
Why this pricing: Scope varies significantly by domain complexity, source system architecture, transformation requirements, and compliance constraints — a scoped engagement ensures accurate delivery and no surprises.
Additional KPI Families
$12,000 to $18,000 per KPI family
Expansion of the KPI registry to new metric families with full semantic alignment. Each KPI family expansion includes semantic layer changes, cross-domain logic validation, governance workflow updates, version-controlled definition documentation, and Control Panel integration.
Why this pricing: Expanding a KPI family requires semantic layer development, validation against existing definitions, and governance workflow configuration — typically a 2 to 3 week engagement depending on cross-domain complexity.
Advanced AI Insights — Additional Forecasting Models
$9,000 to $12,000 per model per month
Additional forecasting models beyond what is included in the base subscription tier. Each model is built, trained, validated, and deployed entirely inside the client’s Azure tenant — with full lineage, audit-ready documentation, and MLOps scaffolding for model monitoring and retraining.
Why this pricing: Each additional model requires dedicated pipeline development, training infrastructure, and ongoing MLOps operations inside the client environment. Pricing is consistent with the custom ML model rates in the base tier scaling schedule.
THREE-YEAR TOTAL COST OF OWNERSHIP
Build Versus Managed Platform — The Full Economic Picture
Traditional build-versus-buy frameworks dramatically underestimate the true cost of modern analytics in regulated environments. Beyond infrastructure and staffing, organizations absorb hidden costs through delayed time-to-value, operational drag, technical debt accumulation, compliance remediation, and the inability to deploy AI at scale. This analysis quantifies the full economic and operational impact across a three-year horizon using current market rates and real-world delivery patterns for regulated industries.
IDPaaS reduces three-year TCO by an estimated 28% to 72% depending on tier and organizational context.
Organizations shifting from capital-intensive internal builds to a fixed-fee managed platform gain financial predictability, accelerated ROI, and immediate AI readiness — without the 18 to 24 month lag and multi-million-dollar staffing burden typical of DIY approaches in regulated industries.
Methodology note: DIY cost estimates are based on published compensation benchmarks for enterprise data roles, average Azure consumption for comparable regulated-industry workloads, and observed delivery timelines from industry research. Actual savings will vary by organization size, existing infrastructure, and geographic market.
Comparative TCO Analysis
| Dimension | In-House Build (DIY) | Insight Ready Platform™ (IDPaaS) |

| Team Composition | Data Engineer ($170K), Analytics Engineer ($160K), BI Developer ($140K), AI/ML Specialist ($200K), DevOps Engineer ($150K) — plus 6 to 12 months recruitment overhead | Zero hiring requirement — fully managed platform team |
| Operational Efficiency | 40% to 60% of team capacity consumed by maintenance, troubleshooting, and technical debt management | 100% of internal capacity dedicated to value creation and analytics delivery |
| AI Readiness | 18 to 24 months to establish requisite data pipelines, governance, and MLOps infrastructure | Production-ready AI and ML capabilities available at deployment |
| Risk Profile | High exposure to talent attrition, knowledge silos, security vulnerabilities, and budget overruns | Risk transferred to provider — guaranteed SLAs for uptime, security, and compliance |
| Three-Year Financial Outlay | $4.31M to $6.75M+ (Implementation: $250K / Annual Cloud: $250K to $600K / Annual Salaries: $820K+ / AI and ML Projects: $200K to $400K / Unplanned Costs: $650K to $1.2M) | $2.88M to $4.86M fixed — covers infrastructure, management, analytics, BI, and AI capabilities |
| Financial Predictability | Volatile CapEx combined with variable staffing costs | Fixed OpEx model with comprehensive cost containment |
| Strategic Outcome | Extended implementation timeline with elevated operational fragility | Accelerated ROI with enterprise-grade stability and scalability |
Three-Year Financial Comparison by Tier
Professional Tier
$80,000 per month — $2.88M over three years
Compared to hiring and maintaining a full in-house data team, BI function, and mid-scale Azure cloud environment with equivalent governed analytics capability.
Enterprise Tier
$135,000+ per month — $4.86M+ over three years
Compared to a complex regulated multi-department build with dedicated AI and ML resources, enterprise-scale Azure infrastructure, and full governance automation.
Strategic Insights
Economic Efficiency
IDPaaS converts unpredictable CapEx and staffing volatility into a fixed OpEx model. Organizations eliminate $750K to $1.8M in cloud infrastructure costs, $2.46M to $2.85M in staffing costs, $600K to $1.2M in AI and ML project costs, and $500K to $900K in unplanned rework and technical debt. The result is multi-million-dollar savings and dramatically improved cost predictability over a three-year horizon.
Risk Mitigation and Operational Transfer
The IDPaaS subscription transfers platform performance, security and compliance, monitoring and DevOps, MLOps and AI operations, and break-fix and technical debt management to On Point BI. This removes the organization’s exposure to talent shortages, attrition, and operational fragility — risks that are structurally higher in regulated environments where data engineering talent is scarce and compliance requirements are non-negotiable.
Velocity and Competitive Advantage
With IDPaaS, organizations reach production in 6 to 8 weeks, not 18 to 24 months. This acceleration unlocks faster decision cycles, earlier ROI, rapid AI adoption on a governed foundation, and competitive differentiation in markets where data-driven operations are increasingly a baseline expectation. Time-to-value becomes a strategic asset instead of a sunk cost.
PRICING FRAMEWORK
Transparent Pricing — No Hidden Costs
The pricing framework is designed to eliminate the ambiguity that makes analytics platform procurement difficult in regulated organizations. Every cost component is documented, every commitment is explicit, and every adjustment requires advance notice.
Phase 1 Implementation
• Fixed-scope delivery inside the client’s Azure environment
• Azure infrastructure consumption billed directly to the client during implementation
• Implementation credit applied toward Phase 2 IDPaaS subscription — Professional Foundation credit toward Professional IDPaaS, Enterprise Foundation credit toward Enterprise IDPaaS
