Assess your organization’s readiness for Team Topologies and build the business case for change.
Engage one of our authorized partners to assess your readiness using one of our tailored Expert Review and Assessment (ERA) packages.
Or purchase a license to use an ERA in-house with your own expert staff.
Expert Review and Assessment packages
Our Expert Review and Assessment (ERA) packages provide a rapid, repeatable way to assess internal capabilities and readiness for aspects of Team Topologies adoption and scale-out.
Each ERA typically takes place over 4 weeks duration, with a small crew of experts from an authorized partner leading the activities.
The outcome from the ERA is a set of recommended changes, including a costed business case with estimated timeline for each recommendation, accelerating the transformation that you know is needed.
ERA 1 - prepare to reshape teams and systems for fast flow
This ERA package assesses readiness to reshape teams and systems for a fast flow of value, and is suitable for most situations. The ERA covers:
Blockers to flow
Undefined teams and interactions
Misplaced boundaries
Cultural readiness
Skills and capabilities
ERA 2 - prepare to enhance Platform Engineering
This ERA package is specifically targeted at Platform Engineering efforts, taking a deeper dive into internal platforms, capabilities, techniques, and choices around which technologies to offer from the platforms,
ERA 3 - prepare to adopt Agentic AI with Team Topologies
This ERA assesses the readiness of the organization to adopt Agentic AI based on the existing agency of human teams. Team Topologies is seen as the ‘infrastructure for agency’ in humans and AI, meaning that the same principles that lead to effective human-based teams also lead to effective Agentic AI deployments.
All ERAs produce a set of recommendations with corresponding investment business cases (including estimated ROI) to simplify the next phase of your transformation.
We will connect you with 2-3 suitable partners who can conduct the ERA
Self-assessment option for ERA
Is your organization prohibited from using external consultancies for assessments? No problem: we offer a Do-It-Yourself option for every ERA.
You can buy a licence to use and run the ERA inside your organization as part of our Enterprise Transformation Package (ETP). A small group of your staff are trained by our core team of experts to use the assessment materials, and then you can run the assessment as many times as you need to without further charge.
