Prove value. Build the engine. Run it.
Each stage earns the next.
If the QOA cannot quantify measurable upside, you do not pay for it.
013 to 5 weeks
QOA: validate the opportunity
Quantify the value. Test the data. Confirm the owner.
Opportunity, feasibility and build scope.Risk reversal: if the QOA cannot quantify measurable upside, you do not pay for the QOA.
024 to 7 weeks
Build and deploy
Ship one engine into one workflow.
Rules, routes, controls and adoption.The work widens only when the evidence supports it.
03Ongoing
Run and improve
Monitor the engine. Tune the rules. Keep it useful.
Measured performance in the operating cadence.A decision engine is done when behaviour changes.
What you get from the QOA
Four outputs. No theatre.
01
Opportunity ledger
Baseline, value range and assumptions tied to one workflow.
02
Feasibility map
Data, access, ownership and constraints.
03
Engine specification
Inputs, logic, outputs, guardrails and integration surface.
04
Go-forward decision
Scope, gate and metric for the build decision.
Directional estimator
Estimate the scale of one margin opportunity.
Loading estimator.
Start where pressure is visible
Pick the decision. Prove the value. Then build.
