Solving business problems through better software delivery.
Whether you need a structured assessment of how your teams deliver, or hands-on leadership to guide modernisation from within - I help you improve delivery flow, reduce risk, and align engineering with business outcomes.
The Friction Index
A strategic assessment of delivery maturity - in just five days.
The Friction Index is a high-trust, low-risk diagnostic designed to uncover the delivery risks and enablers hiding in plain sight.
It blends interviews, system walkthroughs, and AI-assisted analysis to give you fast, actionable insight into how your delivery system really works - and what’s holding it back.
Outcomes:
- A structured maturity snapshot across teams, systems, and leadership
- Prioritised quick wins and longer-term enablers
- Specific, contextual recommendations grounded in hands-on delivery experience
- A trusted baseline for improvement - without the overhead of a big consultancy
