Scoping & Feasibility

Most ideas don't fail because they were bad — they fail because nobody stress-tested them before the money was spent. A scoping engagement gives you a clear picture of what you're actually dealing with: what it would take, what it would cost, what the risks are, and whether it's the right bet right now.

Typical output: a written assessment with options, rough effort/cost estimates, and a recommendation. Usually two to four weeks.

Build & Test

Off-the-shelf tools are built for the average case. Your case isn't average. Custom microsoftware fills the gap — a purpose-built tool that does exactly what you need, built collaboratively with the people who'll actually use it, so adoption isn't an afterthought.

Works for internal tools, academic experiment apps, and working prototypes. Built to be handed over and maintained without depending on me.

Growth & Resilience

Growth strategy that ignores how the business actually works is just wishful thinking. The diagnostic phase maps what you have, what's working, and where the real exposure is — before any strategic moves are made. Ansoff, business model canvas, pricing review, capability inventory: tools in service of a plan, not the plan itself.

Typically starts with a systems check and leads to a strategy roadmap with prioritised initiatives.

Recovery & Momentum

Stalled projects have a cause. It's usually not the one everyone's talking about. Recovery work starts with an honest read of where things actually are — not where the last status update said they were — and ends with a clear decision: restart with a new approach, pivot to something adjacent, or stop cleanly and redirect the energy somewhere it can actually go.

Fast. Uncomfortable. Useful.
