01TuneBefore building, listen
Find the pitch before playing
A short, fixed-scope diagnosis that says what is out of tune, what gets fixed first and what can wait.
Almost no brief starts from nothing. Some processes work, others are held together by spreadsheets, the brand was made years ago and the team already has its own way of doing things. Tuning means understanding all of that before proposing anything.
An orchestra tunes to A — 440 Hz — before it starts. That is not a formality: it is what makes everything else sound together afterwards. Same here. We leave with an agreed reference note, and everything built after that is measured against it.
What it covers
A map of how you operate. Where the time goes, what gets done by hand twice, and which data never meets any other data.
A roadmap ranked by return, not by what looks best in a deck. With hours and savings estimated.
What your company says, to whom and in which words. The reference note everything else is tuned against.
What holds and what does not. State of the code, the data and the security, in language you can act on.
How it works
- Time
- One or two weeks, depending on size.
- Price
- Fixed before we start. No open-ended hours.
- Commitment
- None. If the report says nothing needs doing, it says so.
What you get
- A document you can read without being technical: what is there and what is missing.
- A prioritised plan with hours and estimated cost per phase.
- A session to go through it and decide together what is in and what is out.
- Freedom to run it with us, with your team, or with anyone else.
