Assess the System before you Redesign It

The right assessment helps you see the system patterns driving performance.


Explore our assessments by system area to identify where structure, funding, flow, customer alignment, and AI readiness may be holding you back.

Flow and Delivery

Assess how work moves through the system, where it slows, and whether your measures and improvement habits support better delivery performance.

Identify where delays, wait states, and handoffs are reducing speed, quality, and overall delivery performance.

Best for organizations experiencing slow, overloaded, or unpredictable delivery.

Evaluate whether your metrics help leaders and teams learn rapidly, diagnose issues, and adjust to customer needs rather than simply report status.

Best for organizations that want more actionable metrics and healthier use of OKRs and leading indicators.

Assess whether the organization creates the capacity, leadership support, and learning loops needed to improve the system over time.

Best for organizations where delivery pressure crowds out improvement or change fails to stick.

Strategy, Portfolio, and Funding

Assess whether strategy, investment, and governance work together to support focus, learning, and effective execution.

Evaluate how effectively the organization translates strategy into investment, prioritization, and portfolio-level learning.

Best for organizations where strategy feels disconnected from active work or portfolio tradeoffs.

Assess whether funding and investment structures support flow, product thinking, learning, and strategic adjustment rather than rigid project logic.

Best for organizations where annual budgets and project funding are slowing adaptation and value delivery.

Structure and Operating Model

Assess whether the organization is designed around value delivery, product ownership, and sustainable flow rather than projects and silos.

Evaluate how well teams, responsibilities, and delivery flow are aligned around value streams rather than functional silos.

Best for organizations with excessive handoffs, coordination burden, or weak end-to-end ownership.

Assess whether the organization operates through products, product leadership, and ongoing value delivery rather than temporary project structures.

Best for organizations shifting from project thinking to products, value streams, and outcome ownership.

Customer and Market

Assess how well customer evidence shapes priorities, outcomes, tradeoffs, and strategic adjustment across the system.

Evaluate whether the organization uses customer evidence to guide priorities, define success, and make real tradeoffs rather than offering customer-centric lip service.

Best for organizations that want stronger alignment between customer needs, strategy, and delivery choices.

AI and Digital Enablement

Assess whether AI is strengthening clarity, decision-making, and system capability rather than increasing noise, complexity, or disconnected activity.

Evaluate whether the organization has the data, process, governance, and operating conditions needed for AI to reinforce stability and performance.

Best for organizations exploring AI adoption and wanting to avoid scaling instability, noise, or weak foundations.
