Foundations Assessment
Recommended First Step4 – 6 weeks · Approved at director level
Most platform problems are not technical. They are a measurement problem. Nobody knows which of the five capability areas is the actual bottleneck. The Foundations Assessment fixes that in four weeks.
How it works
Four weeks. Three phases. One shared artifact your whole leadership team can read.
Discovery & Instrumentation
Week 1–2We interview engineering leads, map the current toolchain, and instrument DORA pipelines where missing.
Maturity Scoring
Week 3Each of the 25 delivery cells gets a maturity score (0–3). We identify the three highest-leverage improvement areas.
Readout & Roadmap
Week 4Leadership readout with the maturity radar, DORA benchmarks vs industry, and a sequenced 90-day roadmap with effort estimates.
What you walk away with
Every artifact is owned by you. No proprietary tooling, no lock-in.
- Maturity radar across all 25 delivery cells
- DORA baseline with industry benchmark comparison
- Prioritized 90-day roadmap with effort sizing
- Investment case for Phase 2 engagement
- Recorded readout for async stakeholder review
Who should buy this
The Foundations Assessment is priced and scoped to be approved without a lengthy procurement cycle. It is the right first step if any of the following is true:
- →You have a platform team but no clear maturity baseline
- →Incident frequency is rising and you are not sure why
- →Leadership is asking for ROI on the platform investment
- →A new CTO or VP Eng needs a fast read on the engineering org
- →You are about to start a major platform initiative and want to scope it properly
