Four to six weeks, fixed scope, one price agreed before we start. CUSTOMER SYSTEMS ASSESSMENT Duration  **4–6 weeks** Your team’s time  **8–12 hours total** Scope  **Fixed, agreed up front** You keep  **Nine documented outputs** Obligation after  **None** ### A diagnostic is the cheapest decision you will make on this program. It costs a fraction of the implementation it informs, it takes weeks rather than quarters, and its output is a decision you can defend to a board — including the decision not to proceed. ## The expensive way to find out is to build first. Most organisations we meet already know something is not working. What they do not have is an agreed account of what it is — so the pressure to act turns into a platform decision, and the platform decision inherits the problem. THREE WAYS GUESSING GETS EXPENSIVE - 01 ### One agreed customer record A defined source of truth for who a customer is, with the rest of the estate reading from it rather than arguing with it. - 02 ### Data moves without a person in the middle Integrations that are monitored and documented, so a failure is an alert rather than a discovery three weeks later. - 03 ### Reporting nobody argues with One set of definitions, one set of numbers, produced on a schedule instead of assembled by hand. ## This is worth your time in some situations A GOOD FIT IF - You are considering a CRM or customer platform decision and want the problem defined before the vendor conversation. - You run multiple locations, brands or business units and no one can produce a single reliable view of a customer. - You have a live platform that is not delivering what the business case promised, and the reason is contested internally. - You have a live platform that is not delivering what the business case promised, and the reason is contested internally. ## And not in others. NOT A FIT IF - You need a specific, well-defined build and already know exactly what it is. Talk to us about delivery instead. - The decision is already made and signed, and what you want is validation of it. - No one senior is available to be interviewed for the next six weeks. The findings are only as good as the access. - No one senior is available to be interviewed for the next six weeks. The findings are only as good as the access. ## A defined engagement, not open-ended consulting. Four stages over four to six weeks. The scope is agreed before we start and does not move. If we find something outside it, it goes into the roadmap rather than into the invoice. 1. WEEK 1 ##### Scope and mobilise We agree the boundaries, confirm who we need to speak to, and collect the documentation and system access we can review without taking your team’s time. Your time: 1 hour, sponsor 2. WEEKS 2–3 ##### Discover Interviews across the functions that touch the customer, walkthroughs of the processes people actually follow, and hands-on review of the systems, data and integrations. Your time: 6–8 hours, Across 6–10 people 3. WEEKS 4–5 ##### Analyse and prioritise Interviews across the functions that touch the customer, walkthroughs of the processes people actually follow, and hands-on review of the systems, data and integrations. Your time: 1 hour, checkpoint 4. WEEK 6 ##### Report and recommend A working session with your leadership on the findings, the recommended future state and the roadmap, followed by the documented outputs in section 05. Your time: 2 hours, leadership What it answers for this problem - Customer journeys - Business processes - Integrations - Governance - Teams and ownership - Systems - Reporting - Data quality and architecture WHO IS INVOLVED FROM US - ### A director Accountable for the engagement and present in the readout. Not a handover after the sale. - ### A lead consultant Runs the interviews and process work, and writes the findings. - ### A data and integration specialist Reviews the systems, data and integration layer hands-on. What you receive ## Nine documented outputs. Yours to keep and yours to act on. Nine documented outputs. Yours to keep and yours to act on. 1. 01 ### Current-state customer ecosystem map Every system, flow and handover that touches a customer, on one page. 2. 02 ### Stakeholder and process findings What your people actually do, where it diverges from the documented process and why. 3. 03 ### Systems and integration assessment What each system is doing, what it should be doing, and which connections are fragile. 4. 04 ### Data quality and architecture findings Where the customer record breaks, duplicates or disagrees with itself, and what it will take to fix. 5. 05 ### Customer journey gaps The points where the experience your customer receives differs from the one you intended. 6. 06 ### AI readiness assessment An honest answer on whether your data and processes can support what you have been asked to deliver. 7. 07 ### Prioritised quick wins Improvements worth making in the next ninety days, independent of any larger program. 8. 08 ### Recommended future-state architecture What the customer ecosystem should look like, with the reasoning behind each decision. 9. 09 ### Investment options and transformation roadmap Sequenced phases with effort against return, so the program can be funded in stages. Inside the document The roadmap is yours, and it is portable. It is written to be executed by whoever you choose — your own team, us, or another partner entirely. There is no dependency on us in the documents, and no obligation to continue after the readout. [REQUEST AN ASSESSMENT](https://www.engaging.io/contact-us) - ### The ecosystem map Accountable for the engagement and present in the readout. Not a handover after the sale. - ### A findings page Runs the interviews and process work, and writes the findings. - ### The roadmap Reviews the systems, data and integration layer hands-on. ## One price, agreed in writing, before anything starts. We do not publish a figure, because the scope varies materially with the size and shape of the organisation and a published number would be wrong for most readers. You get a real one within a week of the first conversation. ### What determines the number - How many business units, brands or locations are in scope - How many systems hold customer data, and how many of them we need hands-on access to - How many people need interviewing to get a true picture - Whether the data review needs a full architecture assessment or a targeted one ### What the proposal contains - A fixed price, not a rate card or an estimate - The scope, stated as what is included and what is explicitly excluded - Dates, stages and the hours we will need from your people, by role - The named team who will do the work There is no discovery fee for that call and no obligation attached to the proposal. ### A thirty-minute scoping call is enough for us to price it. ## Tell us where you are and we will come to the first call prepared. Two short steps. The first is about your situation, the second is how to reach you. Nothing here commits you to anything. ### What happens after you submit IMMEDIATELY #### A confirmation, on screen and by email Restating the stages, the outputs and the time we will need from your team, so there is a record of what you asked for. WITHIN ONE BUSINESS DAY #### A reply from one of two people, by name Not a generic inbox and not a scheduling bot. They will have read what you wrote and will propose a time. # Not ready to commit to anything yet? Most people who eventually run an assessment did not request one the first time they read this page. If the form is more than you want to commit to today, start with a conversation instead. Describe the situation to someone who has seen it before. Pick a time that suits you, twenty minutes, no proposal afterwards unless you ask for one and no obligation to run an assessment at all.
