Process lab
We publish the sequence so procurement teams see where pairing hours concentrate — no black-box “methodology” slides without receipts.
Intake dossier
You send constraints — freeze weeks, tenant tiers, toolchain — so proposals avoid fantasy staffing.
Calibration workshop
Half-day sync to align vocabulary and pick pilot surfaces — often webhook paths or billing shells.
Pairing block
Consultants embed on agreed throughput — metrics published weekly, dissent encouraged.
Rehearsal window
Chaos drills run during calm hours so on-call inherits scripts instead of hero stories.
Narrative export
Exec summaries tie metrics to symptoms — optional shadow writing with internal comms.
Cooldown retro
We document what intentionally stayed unfinished — no faux closure — so follow-on scopes stay honest.
Workflow contrast
Before
Slide-heavy steering with ambiguous owners after workshops.
During
Living appendices — dissent logs, deferrals, rehearsal transcripts.
After
Artifacts teams reopen without re-hiring the same consultants forever.
