Designed to end.

A working session, not a sales call. Bring the problem you'd describe to a peer over coffee — the thing your teams keep tripping over, the pilot that stalled, the delivery metrics that stopped meaning anything.

You'll leave with at least one concrete observation about where your delivery model and your tooling have come apart, and an honest read on whether this is a problem worth paying anyone to solve.

What you get

• 45 minutes of direct, unbilled attention on your actual situation
• One specific observation you can act on regardless of what happens next
• A straight answer on fit — including “you don't need us for this”

Good fit if you're a director, VP, or head of engineering who suspects your delivery process is now the bottleneck, not your tools.

Book the conversation →

Two weeks inside your delivery organization to find out where the real constraints are — not where the org chart says they are.

We look at how work actually moves: how decisions get made, where handoffs cost you, what your teams are actually doing with the tooling versus what leadership believes they're doing, and which of your process assumptions stopped being true. The output isn't a maturity score. It's a shortlist of problems worth funding, with a recommendation on which one to fund first.

What you get

• A prioritized set of three to five problems, in plain language, with the cost of leaving each one alone
• A recommendation on which single problem is worth the next six weeks — and why the others aren't yet
• A defined scope, deliverable, and price for that engagement, so the decision to proceed is a decision, not a negotiation
• A read-out session with your leadership team

What it isn't. A framework rollout plan, a tooling procurement recommendation, or a hundred-page document nobody opens twice.

Good fit if you know something is wrong but the diagnosis keeps changing depending on who you ask.

Scope an assessment →

Six weeks against a single problem, with a defined outcome agreed before we start.

The shape is borrowed from Shape Up: a fixed appetite, a real deadline, and a scope that flexes to fit it. We work alongside your teams rather than beside them — the point is that the capability stays after we leave. That may mean rebuilding how a portfolio makes commitments, standing up a development workflow a team will actually keep using, or dismantling a piece of process that's quietly costing you a sprint a quarter.

What you get

• One problem, materially solved, inside a fixed six-week window
• The capability transferred to your team — documented, demonstrated, and owned by someone with a name
• A closing handoff covering what changed, what your team now owns, and what we'd do differently
• An honest assessment of whether a second iteration is worth funding — including when it isn't

How it ends. It ends. If there's another problem worth six weeks, we'll make the case for it. If there isn't, the engagement closes and you have your budget and your people back.

Good fit if you've identified the problem and want it solved by someone who won't still be here in eighteen months.
