Nine Disciplines, Scored One at a Time

Engineering leaders, mainly VPs of Engineering, CTOs and Heads of Platform, who need a defensible answer to how mature their organisation is, not a gut-feel opinion.

A single pillar workshop typically runs one to two weeks from kickoff to scored report. A full nine-pillar engagement usually takes four to six weeks, depending on team availability.

No. Most engagements start with one or two pillars under the most pressure, such as Observability or Security, and expand from there once the format proves useful.

The self-assessment gives your team a quick, internal directional score. A full engagement is run by our consultants, includes interviews with the teams who own the systems, and produces a validated score plus a prioritised roadmap.

Typically the engineering leader sponsoring the assessment, plus the tech leads or team owners closest to the pillar in question. Most sessions run 60 to 90 minutes per team.

Each pillar has a fixed set of weighted criteria, reviewed against evidence from the teams who run the systems, not self-reported opinion. Weights are published in the framework spec so the score is reproducible and auditable.

A maturity level per pillar, the specific gaps behind that score, and a roadmap ordered by what will move the number fastest, so the output is something you can act on the same week.
