DiagnosisSee how you really run

Reconstruct the company bottom-up, as built.

We start from the evidence at the bottom, the outcomes and the work that produced them, and infer upward to execution and strategy. The map keeps moving with the processes.

Four layersHow the as-built map is built, from the bottom up

From what was produced to the strategy behind it.

Read from the bottom: outcomes are observed directly; each layer above is inferred from the one below. Red marks the work that never reaches a system.

  1. 01StrategySales · marketing · financial · operating · customer strategyInferred from execution
  2. 02Strategy executionDepartments · decisions · coordination · approvals · handoffsInferred from processes
  3. 03Detailed processesTasks · systems · exceptions · rework · hidden workInferred from outcomes and traces

The evidenceWhat we read, and what we add where nothing is recorded

Gather what exists. Embed what is missing.

  • Corporate data

    Databases

    ERP, CRM and warehouses, read through read-only connections.

  • Hidden workflows

    Excel, e-mail, chat and paper

    Read by OCR and our reading models, so work outside the systems is counted too.

  • New data types

    Audio, video and photo

    Where a person fills the gap today, we embed the capture in its place. People handle only the exceptions.

Everything lands in one evidence base, which feeds every later step.

Hidden workThe work outside the official workflow

Find the work outside the workflow.

The gold line is the official path. The red detours are where the real work happens: they are mapped next to it, for processes and for data.

Data supply chainHow we map data as it moves through the business

Map data as it moves through the business.

Data inputs are processed into outputs; operations create new data that returns as new inputs. Governance sits under every layer of the loop.

What you receiveThe outputs of the diagnosis

What you hold at the end.

  • An as-built process map, hidden work included, kept current
  • As-built data governance: the full data supply chain, with an owner at every link
  • One evidence base that every later finding traces back to
