The Fastest Path to Outcomes

Accelerators are fixed-scope programs designed to deliver specific, measurable outcomes in 4–8 weeks. No months of discovery, no ambiguous SOWs—just proven playbooks that get you to results fast.

  • Clear deliverables with no ambiguity about what you'll get
  • Fixed pricing with no surprises or scope creep
  • Proven playbooks refined through hundreds of engagements
  • Results in weeks, not months or quarters

Most Accelerators naturally evolve into longer engagements, but there's zero obligation. Take our roadmap and execute yourself, engage a Delivery Pod to implement what we've designed, or transition to Operations for ongoing partnership.

How it works

How Accelerators Work

Week 1: Discovery & Kickoff
Initial stakeholder interviews, environment audit, and goal alignment. We hit the ground running with minimal setup.
Weeks 2-6: Execution
Our team conducts analysis, builds recommendations, and delivers working prototypes or implementation plans using proven playbooks.
Week 7-8: Delivery & Handoff
Final deliverables, presentation to stakeholders, and clear next-step options—whether that's DIY execution or expanding to a full TechPod.
The Work

Strategy Services We Provide

Every engagement is customized, but here are the most common strategy areas we help with:

FAQ

Common Questions

See All FAQs
How are Accelerators priced?

Accelerators have fixed, transparent pricing based on scope and timeline. You know the cost upfront, so there's no hourly rates, no scope creep, and no surprises.

Can I expand an Accelerator into a longer engagement?

Absolutely! Most clients do. Accelerators are designed to prove value quickly, then evolve seamlessly into TechPod engagements for full implementation. But there's zero obligation to continue.

How quickly can we start?

Most Accelerators kick off within 2 weeks of signing. Our proven playbooks mean minimal ramp-up time. We know exactly what data we need and how to execute efficiently.

What if our needs don't fit a pre-defined Accelerator?

We can customize scope or recommend a Strategy engagement instead. Book a call with our team to discuss your specific challenge and find the right starting point.
