Purpose of this Document

This Business Plan provides strategic context, future goals, and an outline of our commercial model. It is informational only and does not form part of any contract or commercial commitment. Binding terms are set out exclusively within the Terms of Sale, Charge-Out Fees and any Consultancy Agreement in force.


Executive Summary

Immercial Limited was incorporated on 7 February 2023 to deliver high-value MEP cost consultancy through a systems-led model—scalable through expertise, not headcount. In our first two years, we’ve supported clients across multiple sectors. Our strategy focuses on:

• Revenue growth via IMME Tier engagements
• The evolution and adoption of the IMME Portal
• Becoming essential to core clients so demand exceeds available capacity

We remain lean, trusted, and technology-driven, with founder-led delivery anchored in structure, not staffing.


Company Overview

Legal Name: Immercial Limited
Incorporated: 7 February 2023
Office: Rickmansworth, UK
Founder: Chris Mills
Ownership: Privately held

Mission

Deliver expert MEP cost consultancy through proprietary systems and a global network of specialists, maximising client capacity, accelerating delivery, and ensuring consistent, high-value outcomes.

Vision

Unify global MEP cost management with shared frameworks, benchmarks, and knowledge, enabling every project, company, and professional to work under one standard.


Niche Focus

Dedicated to MEP cost consultancy, driven by continuous improvement and a connected global community of high-performance specialists.


Services & Pricing Strategy

We deliver consultancy via structured IMME Tiers—outcome-led and per-project:

IMME Tiers

Tier 1 – Priority IMME Support (£x,xxx per project, per month)

Tier 2 – Scheduled IMME Support (£x,xxx per project, per month)

Tier 3 – On-Demand IMME Support (£x,xxx per project, per month)


The Tier Ladder at a Glance

Tier 1 – Priority IMME Support
• Engagement: Regular priority support across project outputs
• Intended for periods of higher workload or complexity

Tier 2 – Scheduled IMME Support
• Engagement: Planned output schedule and milestone-aligned support
• Intended for predictable, consistent input

Tier 3 – On-Demand IMME Support
• Engagement: Targeted, point-specific support
• Intended for teams needing occasional validation and reinforcement


• Tiers apply per project
• Any additional scope requires a separate tier agreement
• Tier fees are reviewed annually each January
• All pricing and travel rates referenced follow the latest Charge-Out Fees schedule

While the tier model forms our standard engagement, day-rate engagements may be used only in exceptional, separately-scoped cases and remain outcome-focused.

Nothing within this Business Plan alters the independent consultancy status outlined in our Terms of Sale and policies.

Competitive Advantages and Revenue gains

IMME Portal: Centralises templates, delivery, benchmarking, tender workflows, and reporting

Expert network strategy: Quality without headcount expansion
Tiered pricing: Predictable engagements and clear boundaries
Digital-first model enabling future SaaS adoption

IMME Talent Supply Chain
Immercial maintains a global supply chain of IMME-accredited practitioners trained through the IMME Method. Organisations may request access to IMME-accredited QS talent for permanent employment following interview.

Where a practitioner is hired, a fixed placement fee of £6,000, payable over three months, applies. This model creates a scalable, non-linear revenue stream while reinforcing the value and integrity of IMME accreditation.

Company Onboarding & Adoption Fee
Organisations adopting the IMME Method are charged a one-off fixed onboarding and adoption fee of £2,500, irrespective of company size. This covers executive alignment, method adoption, QS function alignment, and formal entry into IMME governance.

Per-Project IMME Governance Fee
Each project operating under the IMME Method is subject to a recurring governance and audit fee of £1,250 per project, per month. Projects that are not under active audit are not permitted to use the IMME Method or associated templates and tools.

IMME Client Portal & Pricing Software
Access to IMME pricing schedule and cost planning software is available on a per-project basis for a one-off fee of £1,000, where required. Advanced pricing tools and cost plan generators remain operated by Immercial specialists only.

Immercial’s commercial model is intentionally designed around non-linear growth, combining per-project governance fees, tiered engagement services, platform monetisation, and talent placement revenues. This structure enables scale without proportional headcount growth and underpins long-term enterprise valuation.

Risk: Platform development delays
Mitigation: Maintain a lean roadmap with milestone-driven partner support and staged rollouts to reduce dependency risk and accelerate value release.

Risk: Client churn
Mitigation: Strengthen onboarding systems, deliver consistent tier reviews, and provide measurable value that reinforces long-term trust and retention.

Risk: Scope creep
Mitigation: Strict IMME Tier structure with clearly defined deliverables and contract-backed scope control, preventing dilution of focus and outcomes.

Boundaries and protections are governed contractually under the Terms of Sale.
