Design Cycle Diagnostics

The Problem

Your team is working hard but results aren't improving. Deadlines slip, bugs recur, and everyone has a different theory about what's wrong. You need an objective assessment from someone who's seen this pattern before.

You might need this if:

  • Ship dates consistently slip by weeks or months
  • The same types of bugs keep coming back
  • Team members disagree on what needs to change
  • Development velocity is declining over time
  • You can't measure whether process changes are helping

What's Included

  • 50-question Design Cycle Tune-up Assessment
  • Metrics scoreboard for your team
  • Detailed findings and gap analysis report
  • Prioritized action plan with quick wins
  • Executive summary for leadership
