VAT: CPS is not currently VAT registered, so VAT is not charged. If that position changes, applicable VAT will be shown clearly on future quotes and invoices.
Published bands assume a complete, internally consistent case file, one principal recommendation and use of a reasonably established firm template. A case is re-scoped where complexity, missing evidence, multiple objectives, unusual research or material changes make the original band inappropriate.
A quote is not an acceptance of work. CPS accepts an instruction only after firm onboarding, conflicts and scope checks, and written confirmation of fee and timing.
Defined-benefit technical support is outside the core launch service and would be considered only by prior quote, with named PTS oversight and appropriate firm approval, permissions and PI cover.
Apply with firm-level information. Onboarding and case acceptance begin from 4 September 2026.
