Frequently Asked Questions

What does the KX13 Readiness Assessment cover?

The starting price covers one KX13 solution, one production site, repository read access, up to three stakeholder interviews, and a documented assessment. You receive a written risk/readiness report, migration backlog, current-state diagram, recommendation, executive readout, and a 90-day plan.

Do I have to hire Refined Element for the migration afterward?

No. The assessment is standalone value — there's no obligation to hire Refined Element for the migration itself. You can hand the findings to your own team, an agency, or any other provider.

Who actually does the work?

I do — Mike Rahel, personally. Refined Element is founder-led with no juniors and no handoffs, so the same person conducting the interviews and reviewing your codebase writes the final report.

What do you need from me to start?

Repository read access to the KX13 solution, availability of up to three stakeholders for interviews, and access to current hosting and deployment details. Specifics are confirmed at kickoff.

What happens after I buy?

Payment confirms your slot. I kick off with you to gather repository access and schedule interviews, then the assessment runs over the stated 5–10 business day window and closes with an executive readout of the report, backlog, and 90-day plan.

What if my estate is bigger than the starting scope?

The starting price assumes one KX13 solution, one production site, and up to three stakeholder interviews. A multi-site, multilingual, or heavily customized estate exceeds that scope — I'll confirm the adjusted scope and fee with you before the assessment begins, so you always know the price before committing.

What's explicitly excluded from the assessment?

Code remediation, migration execution, penetration testing, and a detailed fixed-price implementation estimate. The assessment tells you what should migrate, what must be rebuilt, and what can be retired — it doesn't perform the migration itself.

Standalone value—no obligation to hire Refined Element for implementation.
