G-Cloud Pricing Guide

Guide Origin: Community | ArcKit Version: [VERSION]

/arckit:pricing generates the pricing document for a G-Cloud service. It aligns prices to the service design, SDD, supplier evidence, and any market intelligence from tender or competitor artefacts.


Command

/arckit:pricing <service project or service name>

Output:

projects/<NNN>-<service-name>/ARC-<NNN>-PRIC-v1.0.md

When to Use

  • After /arckit:service-design and the relevant SDD command.
  • Before submission review, so pricing can be checked against service features and support model.
  • When tiers, units, day rates, discounts, trials, or education pricing need to be explicit.
  • When tender or competitor evidence should inform the pricing rationale.
