How we work

Clarity before complexity.

Our work starts by understanding what is happening, why it is happening and what is actually preventing progress.

Phase 1

Discover

Understand the organisation.

Talk to the people closest to the problem.

Review available information.

Map stakeholders, processes, systems and constraints.

Questions include

  • What changed?
  • Where does the problem appear?
  • Who experiences it?
  • Who owns it?
  • What has already been tried?
  • What assumptions are being made?

Phase 2

Diagnose

Separate symptoms from causes.

  1. SYMPTOM
  2. CONTRIBUTING FACTORS
  3. CONSTRAINT
  4. CORE PROBLEM

Phase 3

Structure

Turn ambiguity into something actionable.

We define the shape of the problem before anyone commits to a solution.

We define

  • Problem
  • Objectives
  • Constraints
  • Dependencies
  • Stakeholders
  • Risks
  • Options
  • Success measures

Phase 4

Solve

Develop practical options.

Options are only useful when they can be compared honestly.

We compare

  • Impact
  • Complexity
  • Cost
  • Risk
  • Speed
  • Long-term value

Phase 5

Execute

Help turn the decision into reality.

A decision only creates value when something changes.

Possible involvement

  • Project leadership
  • Product ownership
  • Transformation management
  • Cross-team coordination
  • Technology delivery
  • Operational implementation
  • Special projects

Engagement models

Different problems, different shapes of work.

Diagnose

A focused engagement to understand a difficult problem and recommend a path forward.

Build

Work with teams to design or implement a solution.

Transform

Support a larger organisational, operational or technology transformation.

Special Projects

High-priority problems that sit between normal organisational responsibilities.

Embedded

Work directly alongside internal teams for a defined period.
