Integrated Transformation Diagnostic

The whole picture — architecture, data, infra, security, and AI — in one sequenced plan.

Atlas + Pulse + Ridge combined. Full current-state across every dimension that affects whether your next bet ships, then a phased 6–12 month roadmap with named owners and sized risks.

Starts with

Competing initiatives, no shared debt map, and a board asking which bet to fund.

You leave with

A board-ready summary, named owners, sized risks, and a 6–12 month investment sequence.


Fit

Is this for you?

Leadership running parallel digital bets with no shared view of technical debt, data trust, or security posture. Boards or investors asking for a defensible funding sequence. Organizations of 10–500 people ready to commit to a phased plan.

Probably not if

  • Single-domain problems — one of the focused diagnostics is faster and cheaper.
  • Teams wanting a build quote before understanding current state.

Deliverables

What you receive.

  • Current-state across architecture, data, infrastructure, security, operations, and AI readiness
  • Executive summary written for the board, not just the engineering team
  • Phased 6–12 month roadmap with sequenced spend and dependency order
  • Named owners for every initiative in the plan
  • Sized risks with mitigation paths and decision triggers
  • Delivery program scaffolding: charter, milestones, and governance cadence

Build options

What we can deliver after.

The diagnostic is the front door. If the roadmap still needs hands on the work, these are the typical next steps — scoped from the problem, not from a menu.

  • Post-Diagnostic Execution Retainer scoped to the roadmap
  • ARC Partner Retainer for integrated ongoing partnership
  • Individual builds scoped from roadmap items: platform, data, AI, security
  • Fractional Head of AI / Transformation or Fractional TPM depending on primary gap

Scoping to delivery

How the engagement runs.

  1. 01Discovery call: confirm competing initiatives, stakeholder map, and board timeline
  2. 02Access: full system inventory, recent audits or assessments, org chart
  3. 03Week 1–2: parallel workstreams — architecture (Atlas), AI readiness (Pulse), delivery assessment (Ridge)
  4. 04Week 3–4: cross-domain synthesis, opportunity scoring on four axes
  5. 05Week 5–6: roadmap draft, owner assignment, risk sizing
  6. 06Week 6–7: board-ready summary, exec readout, retainer scoping if delivery follows

Typical follow-on

ARC Partner Retainer or Post-Diagnostic Execution Retainer to deliver the roadmap.
