What does the Audit & Roadmap consist of?

</aside>

The audit is a 3-day diagnostic to help civil contractors reduce friction and increase productivity. The deliverable from the audit is a Lean Dirt After-Action Review: a documented record of the observations, along with a 12-week roadmap for improvement. The improvements outline feasible actions to increase productivity, both in the short-term and long-term.

How does messaging & weekly check-ins work?

</aside>

We use WhatsApp, as often as the client desires, to communicate via voice memo’s and text. These are not scheduled, nor synchronous (like Google Meet, Zoom, or Facetime), meetings. Replies will be sent as soon as your Productivity Advisor has availability in their schedule.

<aside> ❓

Do you do the onsite audit every 3-months?

</aside>

No. However, additional 3-day onsite audits will be scheduled and executed annually at no additional cost—assuming continuous renewal. This helps the Productivity Advisor ensure that their context of the business is rooted in reality and not purely based on the perspectives of the leaders they’re working with.

<aside> ❓

What are the strategy calls?

</aside>

These are calls with your Productivity Advisor to keep you focused, aligned, and supported. They also serve as opportunities to recalibrate the roadmap if actions and implementation are hindered or blocked by external forces.

<aside> ❓

How does the 3-month renewal work for the Core and Partner packages?

</aside>

After the initial 3-months, you will have the option to continue services at a reduced rate. The renewal rate only applies to consecutive terms. If you decide to stop and then pick back up at a later date, the renewal rate will not begin until the 2nd term of the next engagement.
