Services

Focused help for programs that need to land.

Short, defined engagements for federal and commercial teams. Each one ends with working artifacts your team keeps and a plan it can run without me.

Engagements

Two to six weeks

AI Adoption Readiness and Rollout

For: Program leaders with a working AI pilot that has not yet reached everyday use.

A readiness assessment across access, trust, training, content, and governance, followed by a phased rollout plan that treats adoption as backlog work.

Deliverables

  • Readiness scorecard
  • Phased rollout plan
  • Training and communications plan
  • Adoption metrics dashboard
Two to four weeks

Jira, Confluence, and SharePoint Health Check

For: Teams whose tools have grown faster than their governance.

A review of workflows, permissions, automation, information architecture, and reporting, with a prioritized cleanup plan and the dashboards leadership actually needs.

Deliverables

  • Platform assessment report
  • Workflow and permission redesign
  • JQL leadership dashboards
  • Governance playbook
Three to eight weeks

Delivery Recovery

For: Programs that are stalled, over budget, or losing stakeholder confidence.

A rapid diagnostic of scope, dependencies, risks, and team structure, then a recovery plan with clear owners, a reset cadence, and leadership reporting.

Deliverables

  • Diagnostic findings
  • RAID baseline
  • Recovery roadmap
  • Executive status pack
Half day to two days

Workshops and Speaking

For: Delivery teams, PMOs, and professional groups.

Practical sessions on AI for delivery teams, adoption planning, and Agile practice in federal environments, built around the participants’ real work.

Deliverables

  • Half-day or full-day workshop
  • Prompt and template kit
  • Follow-up action plan

How an engagement works

From first message to handoff

You see progress on a shared Jira board, with decisions and risks called out every week.

  1. Questionnaire

    You share the situation, constraints, and timeline. It takes about three minutes.

  2. Discovery call

    A 30-minute conversation to confirm fit, scope, and what success looks like.

  3. Proposal

    A short written scope with deliverables, schedule, and a fixed or not-to-exceed price.

  4. Delivery and handoff

    Weekly check-ins, visible progress in a shared Jira board, and documentation your team keeps.
