We will perform an assessment to determine where your system is today. We partner with you to learn about your system’s:
-
- Role in providing critical services
- Stability
- Scalability
- Issues and their severity
Examples of items we may review include:
-
- Business processes
- Contracts
- Data integrity
- Development and operations
- Disaster recovery
- Infrastructure
- Resources (staffing and funding)
- Security
- System performance
- Unplanned outages
- User experience (UX) and user interface (UI)
Assessment timeline
Timeframe: 4 – 8 weeks
Phase 1: Kickoff
In the kickoff meetings, we meet with the executive sponsor and key stakeholders to convey roles and responsibilities, key milestones, and give out initial tasks. We typically discuss these topics:
-
- Identify key roles
- Schedule in-depth interviews
- Request system or service documentation
- System inventory
- Review your intake form
Phase 2: Research
We take time to further understand and gather information about your system. Our quantitative and qualitative research includes:
-
- In-depth interviews with key staff
- System user survey
- System demos
- Obtaining data, artifacts, documents, and other relevant files
- Preliminary findings
Phase 3: Findings and recommendations
We look at all the data, information, and insights we gathered during research to develop the findings and recommendations.
We provide you with your Stabilization Assessment Report. The report includes the research, findings, and recommendations.
Phase 4: Pivot to remediation
Now that we’ve completed the assessment, we will have a transition meeting to pivot to remediation.
We will schedule the assessment closeout and remediation kickoff meeting, and ongoing remediation meetings.
