What Mangrove charges on Firefly-partnered work, how that lines up project by project, and the decisions still open before the next SOW goes out.
Compiled 260921 · sources: Borealis (BOR_0026) internal estimate, Regarding Her (RHF_0026) resourcing page, Granola meeting notes, Slack (Maiya↔Jen, Maiya/Jen/Stephanie, Maiya/Jen/Stephanie/Ada). RHF signed SOW excluded — Firefly-side client pricing, not Mangrove's rates.| Role | Rate | Status | Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Maiya — Leadership / Technical Strategy | $150/hr | in use, unconfirmed | Used flat on BOR and RHF. $200/hr on Made for Good projects (CHF, Insight Exposure, CAF) — agreed with Jen, 9/21. |
| Developers & Designers Chae, Cristina, Aykan, Shelby, Karen | $100/hr | in use, unconfirmed | Also the rate list-priced to Firefly on Borealis ($100/hr external). |
| Project Managers Chloe, Ada | $75/hr | under review | Flagged as potentially too low, particularly for Chloe, who is salaried. Ok to use for Ada on passthrough projects (KIND, POP). RHF's live resourcing page currently holds Ada's PM line at $100/hr. |

"Actual Cost" above is actual hours × Mangrove's own rate card to FF. Note this project was quoted to Firefly at 200h blended $100/hr rather than role-based. Tracked hourly internally, but Maiya's floor is $20,000 — that bakes in the rush rate — so it's unlikely this lands below the quoted price, which Borealis has already accepted.

"Actual Cost" is actual hours × Mangrove's rate card, for direct comparison with the estimate. Jen Frazier shows 0h logged against this specific Teamwork project — her exec-sponsor time may be tracked elsewhere or not logged. No rate data exists for the Firefly-side team, so their hours have no cost figure attached; kept separate from Mangrove's table so it never gets blended into the MGxFF estimate benchmark.

Working hourly for KIND, not against a fixed budget. 9/14: Ada flagged concern about pace of spend and Jen said the client needs to know soon; Maiya proposed writing off 25–40h of recent dev time rather than billing it. No rate data exists for the Firefly-side team, so their hours have no cost figure attached.

Named by Maiya (8/26) alongside RHF as needing a budgeting plan. Not yet an active engagement — still in the bidding stage. Note: logged hours dropped from 8.0h to 4.0h between the last two Harvest pulls — worth confirming whether an entry was corrected or removed.
Maiya, in the group DM: "I'm billing hourly, but tbh I'd love to have more of a fixed fee mapped to scope with monthly bills." Stephanie countered that even a deposit is still billing actuals underneath. Jen agreed to "dial in the projects we have going live" first. Maiya committed to a cross-project sheet and shared rules of engagement — no record it was ever sent.
Jen/Maiya discussed $150 / $100 / $75 on 8/31; Stephanie asked on 9/8 whether it had actually been agreed, and separately whether Mangrove bills hourly or flat rate by phase — neither question has a recorded answer because we're busy busy bees!
Already flagged above under "Mangrove's standing rates"
Maiya and Jen agreed: $200/hr for both partners on all Made for Good joint-venture work (Colorado Health Foundation, Insight Exposure, CAF, and any future MFG projects). Confirmed 9/21.
