Software strategy
Start with the questions that change the decision.
An initial assessment helps us decide what needs deeper investigation. We review the context, identify the main risks and recommend the next useful piece of work.
Scope
The decision, the evidence and the next commitment
Bring the existing context
Share the plan, the system or representative examples of the problem.
Identify the decision
Agree which business choice this assessment should help you make.
Choose the next scope
Document what is clear, what remains uncertain and whether further discovery is needed.
Before we start
How long does a strategy engagement take?
We agree the duration, fee and outputs around the decision you need to make. A focused review and an assessment involving several systems need different amounts of work.
How is strategy different from discovery?
Strategy establishes the direction and the next investment. Discovery develops the requirements and delivery detail needed to estimate and implement it. Some engagements need both; others start with a narrower review.
What should the next investment achieve?
Tell us the decision you need to make, the options on the table and what you already know.
