Approach

Our unique approach to assessing companies to unlock value

How we do it

Our proprietary 1,000-point, 6-factor assessment of a company’s digital capabilities and potential for digital transformation is the only one of its kind.

Leveraging techniques proven in the field of defence intelligence and taking a rigorously data-led approach, we complete the most comprehensive assessment of a company’s digital transformation capability on the market.

Compared to traditional questionnaire-based capability assessments, our benchmarking and insight is:

  • Independent: being rigorously objective and evidence-led, our assessments do not suffer from the bias inherent in similar assessments informed by management team opinion and completed by consultancies incentivised to sell delivery work.
  • Accurate: our private equity customers have validated the accuracy of our intelligence on their portfolio companies and have been surprised at the depth of our insight.
  • Comprehensive: we can evaluate a company against 1,000 points of assessment without any drain on the management team of a company.
  • Actionable: as experienced digital transformation practitioners, we’re focused on the end result – business value – and all of our insight is designed to lead to action.
  • Rapid: up to 8x faster than a conventional, consultancy-delivered assessment.

Furthermore, as we leverage techniques proven in the field of defence intelligence, our assessments are completely confidential, undetectable and ‘permission-free’ making them suited to a range of situations where ‘hands-on’ assessment approaches are simply not viable.
