Cost & margin by tier Setcon internal

Internal cost (BOM + engineering & commissioning + risk) stacked against margin, to each tier's sell price. Updates live as you edit costs and prices. Hidden from customer quotes.

Product brochure Customer-facing · marketing

A visual, print-ready brochure covering all five controllers (Monitor → Comply) and the Managed Energy Operations Platform — focused on application, function and scope. Indicative price ranges are optional, so the same brochure works for both early-stage marketing and pricing conversations.

Platform fee curve — Full EMS

Total platform fee (USD/month) across plant size, 0.1–50 MVA. Dashed verticals mark tier boundaries; the amber line shows the monthly cap. The dot marks your current configuration. Updates live as you edit the tiers and cap below. The export uses 0.5 MVA steps with current rates, cap and FX.

Quote numbering
Period code (SQ-code-NN)  
Set manually — change it whenever a new numbering period should start. "Create New Quote" numbers sequentially within this code (01, 02, …) based on what's already saved to the Quote Repository, and restarts at 01 the moment you change this code.
Platform fees (USD)
Full EMS / Control
Progressive brackets: Tier 1 sets the base + rate; each higher tier adds its marginal $/MVA only on the size within its band, building on the tiers below (like tax brackets). The fee is continuous across boundaries.
Tier 1 — 0 to 5 MVA
Base fee $/mo
Rate (0–5 MVA) $/MVA/mo
Tier 2 — 5 to 10 MVA
Marginal rate (5–10 MVA) $/MVA/mo
Tier 3 — 10 to 15 MVA
Marginal rate (10–15 MVA) $/MVA/mo
Tier 4 — 15 to 20 MVA
Marginal rate (15–20 MVA) $/MVA/mo
Tier 5 — above 20 MVA
Marginal rate (>20 MVA) $/MVA/mo
Monthly fee bounds (floor & cap)
Minimum platform charge (0 = no minimum) $/mo
Cap on monthly fee (0 = no cap) $/mo
Applies to the Full EMS fee: a floor so small plants are never charged below a viable minimum, and a cap so very large plants plateau instead of rising linearly. Both shown on the fee curve above.
Complexity factor (× per-MVA charge)
PV only ×
Hybrid (PV + BESS + GEN) ×
Hybrid + Compliance tracking ×
Multiplies the per-MVA charge by integration complexity. All three are plotted on the fee curve, with the band between the lowest and highest shaded.
Monitor Only — priced by tag count
Tag-based fee
Base fee $/mo
Included tags tags
Per extra tag $/tag/mo
Monthly = base + per-tag × (tags − included). Monitoring cost tracks instrumentation density, not site MVA.
