One flat fee builds it. Each finished piece pays its own small upkeep. Never past $5,000.

Choose the assessment, pick the build pace, and turn each capability on or off. The bill grows only when something real goes live, the whole schedule is published up front, and the district total is capped.

Prepared for the C&MA Mid-Atlantic District

1 · The assessment

Everything starts with the audit. It documents where staff time and technology dollars go today, and it produces the roadmap the rest of this page prices out.

The stewardship guarantee. If the Findings Report doesn't document at least $25,000 per year in recoverable savings, the district pays nothing and keeps every deliverable. The fee also works like a deposit: move forward and it comes off the foundation install, with any remainder credited to the first month's retainer.
Decide on the audit — save your selection to revisit later, or submit to move forward.

2 · Fractional CIO · pick the pace

One flat monthly fee covers the CIO relationship and the build work: advisory, vendor and licensing management, a quarterly report your board can read, a staff support channel, District AIOS hosting, and roadmap projects built at the pace you choose. No per-project invoices.

For scale: the C&MA National Office is currently hiring one Director for Infrastructure & Security at $100,000–$115,000 plus benefits, roughly $10,400–$12,500 a month, and that role reports to an AVP for IT. A full-time technology hire in Frederick runs $17,000–$19,000 a month loaded. Every plan here is a fraction of either number.

The $5,000 promise. However many capabilities go live, the district's monthly total never exceeds $5,000. The full growth schedule is on this page and in the agreement, approved once. Turn any capability off and its upkeep comes off the next bill.

3 · The roadmap · built month by month

The District AIOS is the foundation; every capability below runs on top of it. Building is covered by the retainer. Once a capability is live, its small monthly upkeep (hosting, monitoring, fixes when Microsoft changes something) is added to the bill, subject to the cap. The order below is the build order.

Upkeep once live
Decide on the retainer + roadmap — save your selection to revisit later, or submit to move forward.
Phase two: the church network. Per-church onboarding ($200–$400 one-time) and subscriptions ($99 / $199 / $399 a month by church size) extend the same platform to all 50 congregations. Priced separately once Microsoft confirms the nonprofit licensing structure in writing. Church subscriptions sit outside the district cap.
