What We Do



BFA offers a wide variety of consulting services, ranging from initial analysis and conceptual planning to final testing and checkout. All phases of the systems design and implementation are included, as well as ancillary services such as evaluation and assessment of existing facilities. The following partial list of services is given as an example of what we can offer to a client.

BFA services are offered on either a fixed fee or time and materials basis, depending upon the project and the wishes of the client. Fees are not based upon system budget or equipment cost, thus further ensuring our commitment to the client's needs. Our proposals clearly delineate the services to be performed, the rates for the work, and the conditions under which we are to perform.
