Frequently Asked Questions

This page addresses the most common questions we receive from founders and small teams considering external operations support.

General questions

What exactly is Operations Cell?

Operations Cell is an execution-focused operations partner. We step in where structure, follow-up and execution discipline are missing, without replacing internal leadership.

Is this consulting or execution?

This is execution-first. We do not stop at recommendations. We remain involved to track progress, surface blockers and ensure priorities move forward.

How is this different from traditional consulting firms?

Traditional consulting often focuses on analysis and recommendations. Our model emphasizes structure, execution and accountability, with shorter cycles and fewer meetings.

Engagement & collaboration

How do we work together on a day-to-day basis?

Communication is primarily written. We use short check-ins when necessary, but focus on documented priorities, execution tracking and clear follow-up.

How much time is required from us?

Minimal. Our objective is to reduce founder and team workload, not to add more meetings or reporting overhead.

Who should be involved on the client side?

A clear decision-maker is required. Without decision authority, execution slows down and value creation becomes limited.

Scope & fit

What types of companies is this best suited for?

Founders and small teams (1–20 people) experiencing execution issues, overload, or lack of operational structure.

What types of companies is this NOT for?

Pricing & commitments

Is there a minimum commitment?

No long-term commitment is required. Most engagements start with a 30-day intervention and continue only if value is demonstrated.

How is pricing defined?

Pricing depends on scope and complexity. All terms are agreed upfront. There are no hidden fees.

In which currencies do you bill?

We bill in EUR or USD, depending on client preference.
