Governance retainers

Choose the operating model that fits your catalog.

Each tier combines scope, operating ownership and service level. Catalog size and channels are published caps; your monthly production commitment is set in the SOW after we review representative source data — see how below.

Tier 1 Where most catalogs start

$3,500/mo

For smaller catalogs that need reliable execution without building an internal catalog team.

Catalog: Up to 3,000 unique active manufacturer SKUs in the master catalog. The same SKU on multiple channels counts once.
Channels maintained: Up to 3 retailer or eTailer destinations — routine exports, submissions, reject correction and suppression troubleshooting.
Production & enrichment: Routine monthly plan for source-ready product records; the exact commitment is set in your SOW after sample review.
Quality: Catalog validation, data-error correction and retailer-reject remediation.
Images: Mapping, naming and channel-ready use of compliant client-supplied assets.
Service model: 2-business-day response target; quarterly review plus asynchronous operations.

Catalog: Up to 10,000 unique active manufacturer SKUs; duplicates across channels count once.
Channels maintained: Up to 6 retailer or eTailer destinations, same routine coverage as Tier 1.
Production & enrichment: Expanded monthly plan; exact commitment set in your SOW after sample review.
Quality: Catalog validation, data-error correction and retailer-reject remediation.
Images: Mapping, naming and channel-ready use of compliant client-supplied assets.
Service model: 1-business-day response target; monthly review with a named catalog lead.

Catalog: 10,000+ unique active manufacturer SKUs; final scope established in the SOW.
Channels maintained: Custom channel scope with a delivery model built around your operating needs.
Production & enrichment: Dedicated high-volume plan; commitment set in the SOW after a detailed source-data review.
Advanced quality: Includes Returns Analysis and correction of catalog-information issues identified as root causes.

Included in every governance tier

Fitment management

Routine ACES application creation, extensions, qualifiers, fitment notes and corrections from established source data.

ACES/PIES standards mapping & validation

Your raw product data mapped, normalized and corrected against the Auto Care Association standards and their reference databases — VCdb, PCdb, PAdb, Qdb and the Brand Table — with routine validation for the included catalog and channels. Major version migrations are separately scoped.

Data governance & change control

Source-of-truth management, prioritization, change tracking, documentation and approvals.

Monthly catalog health report

Completeness, validation results, rejects, suppressions, material changes, risks and recommended priorities.

How your production commitment is set

No universal SKU quota — the number is set for your catalog.

Inside the retainer

Set in the SOW, after we see the data

Each SOW sets an account-specific monthly production commitment after review of representative source data. The commitment reflects source readiness, fitment complexity, enrichment requirements, required assets and channel outputs.

Priced outside normal production

Bursts are scoped separately

Large backlogs, high-volume new-SKU releases, incomplete source data and accelerated deadlines sit outside the monthly plan. These are scoped and priced separately as production bursts.

Optional capabilities

Add focused services when the catalog needs them.

These services sit outside the core retainers unless a tier card explicitly includes them. Each engagement defines the product lines, channels, sample size, cadence and output. Several can be purchased without a retainer.

01 $1,500/mo or $4,000/quarter

Coverage & Gap Analysis

Selected product lines analyzed against vehicle-in-operation and market-opportunity data to identify and prioritize missing application coverage.

Separately priced; not included in any tier

02 from $1,500/mo

Competitive Interchange Development

Equivalent competitor SKUs, OE numbers and Amazon ASINs researched and mapped to your products — strengthening part-number search metadata and supporting competitive analysis.

Add-on or standalone

03 $750–$1,500/mo

Competitive Price Analysis

An agreed SKU batch — top sellers, declining performers — compared against similar competitor products to identify market-position risks.

Add-on or standalone

04 $1,000–$1,500/mo

Returns Analysis

Client-supplied returns, reason codes and supporting sales data analyzed to identify root causes. When catalog information is the issue, we correct the affected records.

Add-on or standalone

06 $750–$1,500/mo

Multiple Perspective Image Generation

From one client-supplied front-facing image, additional viewing angles rendered for approved suitable products — stronger listings, discoverability and conversion.

Add-on for Tiers 1–2; included within the Tier 3 SOW allowance

Digital Asset Remediation

Missing or mismatched assets resolved for a defined SKU batch: image identification, SKU mapping, naming and channel-ready packaging.

Common questions

Straight answers on pricing.

Why publish pricing when nobody else in this space does?

Because you shouldn't need a sales call to learn whether we're in your budget. Published tiers let you qualify us in five minutes — and they're possible because our scope boundaries are defined well enough to price in public.

What exactly does my monthly production commitment include?

There's no universal SKU quota. After the audit, we review representative source data and set an account-specific monthly commitment in the SOW, reflecting source readiness, fitment complexity, enrichment needs, assets and channel outputs. It's recalibrated at renewal or on material scope change.

What if our catalog isn't ready for a governance retainer?

Then a foundation project comes first — catalog onboarding if you're building retailer-ready ACES/PIES data for the first time, or catalog remediation if data exists but is fragmented or non-compliant. Scoped and priced separately, typically 1–2× the monthly retainer. A catalog that's already complete, validated and live skips this entirely.

Can we buy one service without a retainer?

Yes. Several modular services are available standalone — each card above says which. Manufacturers with an in-house catalog team use these to close specific gaps without handing over the whole function.

What's the commitment?

Governance retainers run a 12-month initial term with a 90-day out clause after month six. The retainer is normally the second purchase, not the first — most clients start with the free audit and, when needed, a foundation project.

Which tier are we?

The free audit tells you. It evaluates your data's condition and complexity, recommends whether you can go straight to governance or need foundation work first, and estimates your likely tier — so you never have to guess.
