# How Gruntwork can help

## Don't reinvent the wheel

At this point, you've now seen the Gruntwork Production Framework. It consists of several ingredients that, if you put
them in place, will make your organization more successful in the cloud. You could build all of these ingredients from
scratch, but why reinvent the wheel?

| | Do it yourself | Hire a consultant | Subscribe to Gruntwork |
|--------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| **Starting point** | From scratch | From scratch | Leverage 6+ years and 350,000+ lines of battle-tested code proven in prod |
| **Incentives** | Minimize investment of time | Maximize billable hours | Maximize utility from a reusable library of code |
| **Scope of work** | Varies depending on team knowledge and time available | Varies depending on consultant knowledge and budget available | End-to-end, modular architecture that fulfills the production-grade checklist |
| **Time to launch** | 6 – 36 months<br/>(highly variable) | 6 – 36 months<br/>(highly variable) | 5 – 20 days<br/>(highly predictable) |
| **Monthly cost** | $16,000 – $32,000 per month<br/>(2 devs, $100k – $200k / year) | $32,000 – $64,000 per month<br/>(2 devs, $100 – $200 / hour) | $795 per month |
| **Docs, tests** | None | None | Thorough documentation and automated tests |
| **Maintenance** | None | None | On-going maintenance, updates, security patches |
| **Support** | None | None | Commercial support |

At Gruntwork, we offer best-of-breed, off-the-shelf solutions for each of these ingredients. These solutions can
reduce the up-front work by **90%**, saving your organization months or years. Moreover, we've been working on these
ingredients for many years, and hundreds of companies have used them to go to production, so what we offer will be
higher quality than anything you build from scratch. Finally, we provide commercial maintenance and support for all
of these ingredients, so we can reduce the work to keep up-to-date with all the latest changes by **90%** as well!
